Major therapeutic areas:
– Oncology
– Infectious disease
Ideal combination:
– Synergistic for therapeutic activity
– Antagonistic for toxicity

Problems with Synergism - Problems with Synergism - AntagonismAntagonism
Synergism is controversial issue
Literature large but confusing
Different definitions
Different methods and experimental designs
Pharmacological - biostatistical approaches

from a probabilistic point of view, when fraction i1 is
inhibited by drug 1, only (1 - i1) is available to respond to
drug 2. Assuming independence:

Bliss IndependenceBliss IndependenceCounter-argumentCounter-argument
A drug can be synergistic with itself
75 % of control at 0.9 mg/kg
Assume a dose of 0.9 mg/kg of the drug is combined with 0.9 mg/kg of the same drug
Total dose = 1.8 mg/kg
Under Bliss independence:0.75 x 0.75 = 0.56 = 56 % for combination
1.8 mg/kg yields 15.7 % of control

Screening for Synergism in Screening for Synergism in OncologyOncology
Screening experiment
– as simple as possible with limited resources
– carried out on a routine basis
– analysis must be automated
Screening experiments on tumor cells grown in 96-well microtiter plates

Screening ExperimentScreening ExperimentRequirementsRequirements
– Unbiased estimates of responses
– Avoidance of confounding of random error and drug effects
– Elimination of plate effects and plate location effects in 96-well plates

Plate Location Effects in 96-well Plate Location Effects in 96-well PlatesPlates
Microtiter plates contain a substantial amount of unexplainable systematic error along their rows & columns (Faessel, et al. 1999)
Importance of standardization experiment (low, middle, and high response)
![Page 17: The Search for Synergism A Data Analytic Approach L. Wouters, J. Van Dun, L. Bijnens May 2003 Three Country Corner Royal Statistical Society.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cac5503460f9496e5c4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Standardization Experiment (n = 3)Standardization Experiment (n = 3)
Standardization experiment at high level of response, n=3
Within assay presence of systematic differences of important magnitude (up to 50 %) in untreated microtiter plates after edge removal
Not repeatable between different runs of assay

How to Eliminate Bias & How to Eliminate Bias & Confounding ?Confounding ?
Randomization assures:
– Equal probability to attain a specific response for each well
– Independence of results
– Absence of confounding
– Proper estimation of random error

ConclusionsConclusions
Present graphical approach appealing to scientists
Still a lot to be done
– T. O’Brien’s approach (TOB)
– Incorporating design issues in TOB
– Alternative distributions (e.g. gamma)
– Optimal design
