Druglikeness is a key consideration when selecting compounds during the early stages of drug discovery. However, evaluation of druglikeness in absolute terms does not adequately reflect the whole spectrum of compound quality. More worryingly, widely used rules may inadvertently foster undesirable molecular property inflation as they permit the encroachment of rule-compliant compounds toward their boundaries. We propose a measure of druglikeness based on the concept of desirability called Quantitative Estimate of Druglikeness (QED). The empirical rationale of QED reflects the underlying distribution of molecular properties. QED is intuitive, transparent, straightforward to implement in many practical settings and allows compounds to be ranked by their relative merit. We extend the utility of QED by applying it to the problem of molecular target druggability assessment by prioritizing a large set of published bioactive compounds. The measure may also capture the abstract notion of aesthetics in medicinal chemistry.
