Comprehensive assessment of side effects in COVID-19 drug pipeline from a network perspective.
Food and Chemical Toxicology 2020 November
Currently, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), has posed an imminent threat to global public health. Although some current therapeutic agents have showed potential prevention or treatment, a growing number of associated adverse events have occurred on patients with COVID-19 in the course of medical treatment. Therefore, a comprehensive assessment of the safety profile of therapeutic agents against COVID-19 is urgently needed. In this study, we proposed a network-based framework to identify the potential side effects of current COVID-19 drugs in clinical trials. We established the associations between 116 COVID-19 drugs and 30 kinds of human tissues based on network proximity and gene-set enrichment analysis (GSEA) approaches. Additionally, we focused on four types of drug-induced toxicities targeting four tissues, including hepatotoxicity, renal toxicity, lung toxicity, and neurotoxicity, and validated our network-based predictions by preclinical and clinical evidence available. Finally, we further performed pharmacovigilance analysis to validate several drug-tissue toxicities via data mining adverse event reporting data, and we identified several new drug-induced side effects without labeling in Food and Drug Administration (FDA) drug instructions. Overall, this study provides forceful approaches to assess potential side effects on COVID-19 drugs, which will be helpful for their safe use in clinical practice and promoting the discovery of antiviral therapeutics against SARS-CoV-2.
