Comparative molecular similarity indices analysis

CoMSIA (comparative molecular similarity index analysis) is a recent development from CoMFA and does not suffer from the alignment problem. It has been used to model hERG potassium channel inhibition by drugs [59] and the toxicity of phenylsulfonyl carboxylates [60], organophosphates [61], and polybrominated diphenyl ethers [62], with results comparable to those from CoMFA.

The next step was made by Klebe et al. [50]. Two 3D-QSAR methods were applied to get three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationships using a training set of 72 inhibitors of the benzamidine type with respect to their binding affinities toward Factor Xa to yield statistically reliable models of good predictive power [51-54] the widely used CoMFA method (for steric and electrostatic properties) and the comparative molecular similarity index analysis (CoMSlA) method (for steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic, hydrogen bond donor, and hydrogen bond acceptor properties). These methods allowed the consideration of various physicochemical properties, and the resulting contribution maps could be intuitively interpreted.

Statistical characteristics of CMF models obtained for these data sets were compared with the same characteristics built for corresponding data sets using the common 3D-QSAR methods, CoMFA (Comparative Molecular Fields Analysis) [18] and CoMSIA (Comparative Molecular Similarity Index Analysis) [24], based on the use of molecular fields. Data on CoMFA and CoMSIA models were taken from Ref. [25].
