1 Intrductin t the AOP framewrk cncept and nline curse Catherine Willett Crdinatr, Human Txiclgy Prject Directr, Science Plicy HSUS/HSI kwillett@humanesciety.rg

2 Outline Why Need fr mre efficient tls fr chemcial risk assessment Need t better use ur existing and future data and knwledge What The Adverse Outcme Pathway framewrk Purpse, definitin Hw Relatinal knwledgebase Guidance Evaluatin Training and free curse

3 Issue #1: t many chemicals, current system inadequate e.g. tens f thusands f chemicals await assessment e.g. 95% clinical failure rate fr new drugs in spite f increased spending Faster, mre relevant appraches needed acrss sectrs

4 Issue #2: The need t better leverage ur existing knwledge T much data! Decades f research and testing data Glbal scientific utput dubles every 9 years Where is the data?! Jurnal articles, reprts, labratry ntebks, agency archives, Institutinal and gvernment databases

5 Better access, better rganizatin leads t better understanding PDFs Fragmented Siled Prprietary (adapted frm D. Villeneuve) Searchable Machine-readable Linked Facilitating cllabratin Aviding duplicatin

6 Adverse Outcme Pathway framewrk: linking mlecular initiatin t adverse utcmes? A practical slutin fr a practical prblem: Hw t use mlecular understanding t make better decisins abut chemical safety Prvides a framewrk fr cllecting, rganizing and evaluating bilgical infrmatin

7 AOPs: Linking mlecular infrmatin t adverse utcmes Chemical prperties Prtein binding DNA binding Receptr/ligand binding Gene activatin Prtein prductin Altered signaling Altered physilgy Altered tissue develpment r functin Impaired develpment Impaired reprductin lethality Impaired reprductin/ survival, Ppulatin crash A sequence f events beginning with initial interactins f a stressr with a bimlecule in a target cell r tissue (the mlecular initiating event), prgressing thrugh a dependent series f intermediate events (key events) culminating with an adverse utcme* *if cmpensatry mechanisms are verwhelmed

8 AOPs: Prvides scaffld fr rganizing, evaluating and understanding data Mlecular data Regulatry Endpints Chemical prperties Prtein binding DNA binding Receptr/ligand binding Gene activatin Prtein prductin Altered signaling Altered physilgy Altered tissue develpment r functin Impaired develpment Impaired reprductin lethality Impaired reprductin/ survival, Ppulatin crash High Thrughput Mechanistic Txiclgy Data ( mics, bimarkers) Guideline Studies Clinical, Epidemilgy Ec Field Studies

9 Essential elements f an AOP Chemical prperties Prtein binding DNA binding Receptr/ligand binding Key Events (KEs) ndes Gene activatin Prtein prductin Altered signaling Altered physilgy Altered tissue develpment r functin Change in bilgical r physilgical state Measurable and essential fr prgressin Impaired develpment Impaired reprductin lethality Mlecular Initiating Event (MIE): specialized KE that represents the initial pint f stressr interactin with the rganism Adverse Outcme (AO): specialized KE f regulatry significance Key Event Relatinships (KERs) Cnnectin between tw key events Critical fr assembling evidence in supprt f the AO Facilitates inference r extraplatin Impaired reprductin/ survival, Ppulatin crash

10 Building an AOP Chemical prperties Prtein binding DNA binding Receptr/ligand binding Gene activatin Prtein prductin Altered signaling Altered physilgy Altered tissue develpment r functin Impaired develpment Impaired reprductin lethality Impaired reprductin/ survival, Ppulatin crash Start anywhere but ne AOP = ne MIE leading t ne AO as a pragmatic unit Gather all existing knwledge Nt every detail, but critical steps r check-pints Cllabratin is encuraged Evaluate and dcument the infrmatin Refer t extensive OECD guidance Translate and capture infrmatin as a pathway in the AOP Wiki

11 Fundamental principles f AOP develpment AOPs are mdular Key events and relatinships can be shared by multiple AOPs AOPs are living dcuments AOP descriptins can be expected t evlve ver time As descriptins are updated and expanded all AOP descriptins they link t update autmatically AOP netwrks will emerge and are the basis fr predictin

12 AOP Knwledgebase: an internatinal partnership

13 AOP Wiki: infrmatin strage, linkage and evaluatin Captures and rganizes all infrmatin and supprting dcumentatin fr AOP elements Supprted by extensive guidance, tutrials and an nline curse Is designed t enable rigrus evaluatin and scientific review Publically accessible since

16 AOP 38 Summary

17 AOP WIKI: KER and AOP cnfidence evaluatin Bilgical Plausibility:between KE upstream and KE dwnstream? High (strng): Extensive understanding f KER Mderate:KER is plausible Lw (weak): sme empirical supprt Essentiality: are dwnstream KEsprevented if upstream KE s blcked? High(strng): direct evidence frm experimental studies Mderate: indirect evidence Empirical Evidence: amunt, quality, cnsistent, incnsistent? High (strng): extensive evidence fr tempral, dse-respnse Mderate: multiple reprts f cnsistent evidence, sme incnsistent Lw (weak) Nr cntradictry evidence Lw (weak): limitedr n studies and/r significant incnsistencies

20 OECD AOP Develpment Prgramme AOP Wiki Access: three levels 1. Read access: anyne can access the wiki, search and read entries 2. Cmmenter access: a self-created accunt is needed t leave cmments Create an accunt n the wiki 3. Authr access: t write and edit AOPs must be requested thrugh the wiki Yu shuld have a familiarity with the wiki and desire t build an AOP
