Drug-induced liver injury severity and toxicity (DILIst): binary classification of 1279 drugs by human hepatotoxicity

摘要

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is of significant concern to drug development and regulatory review because of the limited success with existing preclinical models. For developing alternative methods, a large drug list is needed with known DILI severity and toxicity. We augmented the DILIrank data set [annotated using US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) drug labeling)] with four literature datasets (N > 350 drugs) to generate the largest drug list with DILI classification, called DILIst (DILI severity and toxicity). DILIst comprises 1279 drugs, of which 768 were DILI positives (increase of 65% from DILIrank), whereas 511 were DILI negatives (increase of 65%). The investigation of DILI positive-negative distribution across various therapeutic categories revealed the most and least frequent DILI categories. Thus, we consider DILIst to be an invaluable resource for the community to improve DILI research.
