Background
Drug clearance is defined as the volume of plasma cleared of a drug over a specified time period and it measures the rate at which the active drug is removed from the body. This is a dataset curated from ChEMBL database containing experimental results on intrinsic clearance, deposited from AstraZeneca. It contains clearance measures from two experiments types, hepatocyte and microsomes. As many studies [2] have shown various clearance outcomes given these two different types, we separate them.
Description of readout
Task Description: Regression. Given a drug SMILES string, predict the activity of clearance.
