Molecule Property Analyses of Active Compounds for
Tuberculosis (TB) continues to claim the lives of around 1.7 million people per year. Most concerning are the reports of multidrug drug resistance. Paradoxically, this global health pandemic is demanding new therapies when resources and interest are waning. However, continued tuberculosis drug discovery is critical to address the global health need and burgeoning multidrug resistance. Many diverse classes of antitubercular compounds have been identified with activity in vitro and in vivo. Our analyses of over 100 active leads are representative of thousands of active compounds generated over the past decade, suggests that they come from few chemical classes or natural product sources. We are therefore repeatedly identifying compounds that are similar to those that preceded them. Our molecule-centered cheminformatics analyses point to the need to dramatically increase the diversity of chemical libraries tested and get outside of the historic Topics: Antitubercular Agents; Bacterial Proteins; Drug Discovery; Drug Resistance, Bacterial; Humans; Mycobacterium tuberculosis; Nitroimidazoles; Nucleoside-Phosphate Kinase; Structure-Activity Relationship; Tuberculosis | 2020 |
