Consortium that promotes the discovery of novel small molecule candidates suitable for subsequent optimization either to drug candidates or to high-quality pharmacological tools for the experimental validation of targets using open innovation and crowd sourcing. It is designed to provide best-in-class resources and funding-in-kind, to academics or small and medium enterprises (SMEs) who are working on promising biology targets or chemistry scaffolds. Screening of compounds to assess their activity is also funded and performed by the EU Lead Factory, with collaboration to help develop an Improved Hit List from the Qualified Hit List. They will provide collaborative screening of previously safeguarded, high quality corporate compounds. Around 300,000 compounds in the EFPIA Compound Collection, contributed by EFPIA members, will be screened against both commercially contributed biology targets and targets from public sources. The second phase of the consortium is to build a substantial new Public Compound Collection of around 200,000 compounds. Together, the EFPIA and Public compound collections will form a 500,000-strong Joint European Compound Collection. Target program owners and compound contributors will receive a Qualified Hit List (QHL) of up to 50 compounds complete with relevant information to help in the development of an Improved Hit List (IHL). Target program owners, will have exclusive access to threshold active compounds in their QHL. After the three-year exclusivity period, QHL/IHL information will be made public. Milestone payments are due if direct exploitation proceeds, not for research use. And owners and contributors will give EFPIA participants the right to submit a first bid (which they do not have to accept).

Project whose goal is to improve understanding of how potential drugs bind with their target, and develop methods and tools to allow researchers to study drug-target interactions with greater ease. These tools would help researchers to determine whether a drug candidate is likely to be safe and effective much earlier in the drug development process. The first goal of the team is to enhance understanding of binding kinetics; exactly how do small molecules interact with their targets? Ultimately, the project aims to develop a range of robust techniques, methods and models that could be easily incorporated into the drug development pathway and enable scientists and drug designers worldwide to reliably predict a molecule's kinetic properties (its "kinotype"). This information will allow drug developers to more easily determine the safety and efficacy of a molecule and will weed out ineffective or unsafe molecules earlier in the drug development process. Eventually, the project also hopes to raise awareness of the importance of considering the kinetic aspects of drug-target interactions throughout drug development.

Project that developed an open access discovery platform, called Open Pharmacological Space (OPS), via a semantic web approach, integrating pharmacological data from a variety of information resources and tools and services to question this integrated data to support pharmacological research. The project is based upon the assimilation of data already stored as triples, in the form subject-predicate-object. The software and data are available for download and local installation, under an open source and open access model. Tools and services are provided to query and visualize this data, and a sustainability plan will be in place, continuing the operation of the Open PHACTS Discovery Platform after the project funding ends. Throughout the project, a series of recommendations will be developed in conjunction with the community, building on open standards, to ensure wide applicability of the approaches used for integration of data.
