Timing Matters: A Machine Learning Method for the Prioritization of Drug-Drug Interactions Through Signal Detection in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System and Their Relationship with Time of Co-exposure.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Current drug-drug interaction (DDI) detection methods often miss the aspect of temporal plausibility, leading to false-positive disproportionality signals in spontaneous reporting system (SRS) databases.

Objective

This study aims to develop a method for detecting and prioritizing temporally plausible disproportionality signals of DDIs in SRS databases by incorporating co-exposure time in disproportionality analysis.

Methods

The method was tested in the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). The CRESCENDDI dataset of positive controls served as the primary source of true-positive DDIs. Disproportionality analysis was performed considering the time of co-exposure. Temporal plausibility was assessed using the flex point of
