Principled Drug-Drug Interaction Terms for Bayesian Logistic Regression Models of Drug Safety in Oncology Phase I Combination Trials [PDF]
In Oncology, trials evaluating drug combinations are becoming more common. While combination therapies bring the potential for greater efficacy, they also create unique challenges for ensuring drug safety. In Phase-I dose escalation trials of drug combinations, model-based approaches enable efficient use of information gathered, but the models need to ...

Among 74 patients with an immediate hypersensitivity reaction (IHR) to iodinated contrast media (ICM), the rate of allergic patients confirmed by positive prick test or diluted intradermal test (IDT) was 8.1%. 12.5% of re‐exposed patients had a recurrent

DDI Prediction via Heterogeneous Graph Attention Networks [PDF]
Polypharmacy, defined as the use of multiple drugs together, is a standard treatment method, especially for severe and chronic diseases. However, using multiple drugs together may cause interactions between drugs. Drug-drug interaction (DDI) is the activity that occurs when the impact of one drug changes when combined with another.

Hypersensitivity to Intravenous Iron Preparations
Intravenous iron is widely used for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia when adherence to oral iron replacement is poor. Acute hypersensitivity reactions during iron infusions are very rare but can be life threatening.

Relational graph convolutional networks for predicting blood-brain barrier penetration of drug molecules [PDF]
Evaluating the blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability of drug molecules is a critical step in brain drug development. Traditional methods for the evaluation require complicated in vitro or in vivo testing. Alternatively, in silico predictions based on machine learning have proved to be a cost-efficient way to complement the in vitro and in vivo methods.

The efficiency of multi-target drugs: the network approach might help drug design [PDF]
Despite considerable progress in genome- and proteome-based high-throughput screening methods and rational drug design, the number of successful single target drugs did not increase appreciably during the past decade. Network models suggest that partial inhibition of a surprisingly small number of targets can be more efficient than the complete ...

Background: Skin rash often occurs upon oral administration of amoxicillin in children, due to non-immediate hypersensitivity. However, information on delayed hypersensitivity to amoxicillin is scarce.

Drug Interaction Vectors Neural Network: DrIVeNN [PDF]
Polypharmacy, the concurrent use of multiple drugs to treat a single condition, is common in patients managing multiple or complex conditions. However, as more drugs are added to the treatment plan, the risk of adverse drug events (ADEs) rises rapidly. Many serious ADEs associated with polypharmacy only become known after the drugs are in use.

Fixed drug eruption due to clarithromycin
Fixed drug eruption (FDE) is an unusual adverse effect of any drug, especially antibiotics like clarithromycin. Herein we report a case of clarithromycin induced FDE in a 30-year-old man who presented with recurrent erythematous and pruritic cutaneous ...
