Researchers have developed a framework to predict whether a compound screened for drug discovery will yield a quantifiable potency estimate. This 'quantifiability' is distinct from biological activity and can be predicted from primary screening data, with most predictive information coming from observed screening features rather than molecular structure. The model demonstrated robustness across different chemical scaffolds and assay types, suggesting that prioritizing compounds based on predicted quantifiability can optimize the allocation of resources for costly dose-response profiling.
