Pepti-DrugPhAI predicts peptide pharmacokinetics and toxicity from both SMILES and amino-acid sequences, enabling accurate, interpretable ADMET and functional suitability scoring for candidate selection.
- Why it matters: Peptide drugs often fail because pharmacokinetic properties and toxicity profiles are inadequate, limiting promising candidates in preclinical and clinical development.
- What they did: The team built a multimodal algorithm trained on an original dataset compiled from public databases and scientific publications, using a stack of classical models and transformer/language-model classifiers.
- The result: On independent test sets, the approach achieved high prediction accuracy and feature interpretability, supporting more robust selection of peptide drug candidates and providing open code and data.
