Motivation: Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is one of the primary problems in drug development. Early prediction of DILI, based on the chemical properties of substances and experiments performed on cell lines, would bring a significant reduction in the cost of clinical trials and faster development of drugs. The current study aims to build predictive models of risk of DILI for chemical compounds using multiple sources of information.Methods: Using several supervised machine learning algorithms, we built predictive models for several alternative splits of compounds between DILI and non-DILI classes. To this end, we used chemical properties of the given compounds, their effects on gene expression levels in six human cell lines treated with them, as well as their toxicological profiles. First, we identified the most informative variables in all data sets. Then, these variables were used to build machine learning models. Finally, composite models were built with the Super Learner approach. All modeling was performed using multiple repeats of cross-validation for unbiased and precise estimates of performance.Results: With one exception, gene expression profiles of human cell lines were non-informative and resulted in random models. Toxicological reports were not useful for prediction of DILI. The best results were obtained for models discerning between harmless compounds and those for which any level of DILI was observed (AUC = 0.75). These models were built with Random Forest algorithm that used molecular descriptors.

Uterine fibroids are the most common pelvic tumor formation in women and the most common indication for hysterectomy. The effectiveness of long-term intermittent use of ulipristal acetate (UA) in patients with uterine myoma has been proven earlier. In May 2018, the ability of UA to cause a drug-induced liver injury (drug-induced liver injury, DILI) was disproved, and the European Commission approved a positive decision. According to the conclusion Expertise of the Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee - PRAC) the benefit/risk ratio remains favorable. Published recommendations are aimed at reducing the risk of liver damage. UA remains the 1st line of treatment for most myomas.

Abstract Motivation: Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is one of the primary problems in drug development. Early prediction of DILI can bring a significant reduction in the cost of clinical trials. In this work we examined whether occurrence of DILI can be predicted using gene expression profile in cancer cell lines and chemical properties of drugs. Methods: We used gene expression profiles from 13 human cell lines, as well as molecular properties of drugs to build Machine Learning models of DILI. To this end, we have used a robust cross-validated protocol based on feature selection and Random Forest algorithm. In this protocol we first identify the most informative variables and then use them to build predictive models. The models are first built using data from single cell lines, and chemical properties. Then they are integrated using Super Learner method with several underlying methods for integration. The entire modelling process is performed using nested cross-validation. Results: We have obtained weakly predictive ML models when using either molecular descriptors, or some individual cell lines (AUC: 0.55-0.61). Models obtained with the Super Learner approach have a significantly improved accuracy (AUC=0.73), which allows to divide substances in two categories: low-risk and high-risk.
