Compound Library Screening (WP1) ScreeningCampaign HitConfirmation/ Selection Hit Explosion Hit-to-Lead Chemical Validation
Screening Facility at KULeuven (P3) State-of-the-art cell based BSL-2 screening platform at KULeuven (P3) Efficient data management (barcode tracked)/database. BSL-2 & BSL-3 animal facilities
Compound Libraries • ChemBridge Diversity: • 30 k Compounds received from Univ Med (P1) • Selection of druglike compounds with maximum pharmacophorediversity. • CISTIM Library: • 33 K Compounds receivedfrom CISTIM (P24) • Special compound selection based on different parameters (e.g., Lipinski’s rule of five, solubility, toxicophores, frequent hitters, unstable fraction)
Screening Campaigns at KULeuven (P3) Cell-culture based screening -> cover all viral targets Automated plate processing and data capture Antiviral activity determined by CPE quantification or reporter gene assays 4 concentrations assay starting at 50 µg/mL 30 k compounds -> 2500 test plates Additional microscopic scoring of antiviral activity and toxicity(Quality control)
Screening Campaigns for Rabies and Toscana Virus Test plates (ChemBridge) prepared at KULeuven (P3)and shipped to Inst. Pasteur (P6) and Univ. Med. (P1) 1 concentration assay 30 k compounds -> 750 test plates Read-out: CPE or ELISA Additional microscopic scoring of antiviral activity and toxicity (Qualtity control)
HIT CONFIRMATION / SELECTION Dengue Virus Plaque Assay Starts at ~10 k compounds screened Purchase of fresh powder 8-points screen Determining antiviral spectrum(ex Enteroviruses) Viral Yield Assays Chemical validation, Literature Check, …
HIT Explosion Chemical validation • Acquisition of commercial analogues (~20): variation on R, ideally one position at a time • Evaluation of analogues in biological assays • Establishing Structure-Activity –Relationship (SAR) • Total synthesis (from scratch) to compare analytical data of in house synthesised and commercial compounds. • Evaluation of in house synthesised and commercial compounds in biological assays) Commercial hit R1 CC50 > 50 μg/ml; EC50 = 0.3 μg/ml R3 Scaffold Synthesised hit CC50 > 50 μg/ml; EC50 = 0.24 μg/ml R2 Rn
ChemInformatics at KULeuven (P3) • Selection of potential hits from commercially available libraries • Predictive QSAR modelingwith graph kernels • Efficient enumeration of subgraphswith careful normalization and large-margin classification. • State-of-the-art predictive power • Active optimization • Iterative: acquire, test, model, repeat. • Escapes from local optima by exclicit uncertainty modeling • Suggestions for synthesis
