Predictive modeling for drug-polymer compatibility in pharmaceutical formulations using COSMO-SAC.

COSMOPharm

Welcome to the COSMOPharm package, accompanying our paper in J. Chem. Theory Comput.. This project and its associated publication offer insights and a practical toolkit for researching drug-polymer and drug-solvent systems, aiming to provide the scientific community with the means to reproduce our findings and further the development of COSMO-SAC-based models.

About

COSMOPharm is a Python package designed for predictive modeling of drug-polymer compatibility and drug-solubility in common solvents. It leverages the COSMO-SAC (Conductor-like Screening Model Segment Activity Coefficient) model, offering a robust platform for solubility, miscibility, and phase behavior prediction in drug formulation processes.

Features

• Compatibility Prediction: Predict drug-polymer compatibility using the open-source COSMO-SAC model.
• Solubility Calculation: Guide polymer selection for drug formulations by calculating drug-polymer solubilities.
• Miscibility and Phase Behavior Analysis: Understand drug-polymer miscibility and phase behavior under various conditions.
• User-friendly Interface: Facilitate research with easy-to-use functions and comprehensive documentation.

Installation

Install COSMOPharm with pip:

pip install cosmopharm

Ensure you have installed the cCOSMO library as per instructions on the COSMOSAC GitHub page.

Quick Start

This minimal example demonstrates how to use COSMOPharm to calculate solubility and miscibility of a drug with a polymer:

import cCOSMO
from cosmopharm import SLE, COSMOSAC
from cosmopharm.utils import create_components, read_params

# Define components - replace 'DrugName' and 'PolymerName' with your actual component names
names = ['DrugName', 'PolymerName']
params_file = "path/to/your/params.xlsx"

# Load parameters and create components
parameters = read_params(params_file)
components = create_components(names, parameters)

# Initialize COSMO-SAC model - replace paths with your local paths to COSMO profiles
db = cCOSMO.DelawareProfileDatabase(
    "path/to/your/complist/complist.txt",
    "path/to/your/profiles/")

for name in names:
    iden = db.normalize_identifier(name)
    db.add_profile(iden)
COSMO = cCOSMO.COSMO3(names, db)

# Setup the COSMO-SAC model with components
model = COSMOSAC(COSMO, components=components)

# Calculate solubility (SLE)
sle = SLE(solute=components[0], solvent=components[1], actmodel=model)
solubility = sle.solubility(mix='real')

# Output the solubility
print(solubility[['T', 'w', 'x']].to_string(index=False))

Replace 'DrugName', 'PolymerName', and file paths with your actual data and files. This example provides a straightforward demonstration of calculating the real solubility of a drug in a polymer using COSMOPharm.
