AIM: Generating a data and software infrastructure for evaluating multi-target compound (MT-CPD) design via deep generative modeling. METHODOLOGY: The REINVENT 2.0 approach for generative modeling was extended for MT-CPD design and a large benchmark data set was curated. EXEMPLARY RESULTS & DATA: Proof-of-concept for deep generative MT-CPD design was established. Custom code and the benchmark set comprising 2809 MT-CPDs, 61,928 single-target and 295,395 inactive compounds from biological screens are made freely available. LIMITATIONS & NEXT STEPS: MT-CPD design via deep learning is still at its conceptual stages. It will be required to demonstrate experimental impact. The data and software we provide enable further investigation of MT-CPD design and generation of candidate molecules for experimental programs.
