Niflumic and tolcapone share 2 molecular targets based on binding affinity data from BindingDB (Kd/IC50 ≤ 10 µM) and ChEMBL. A Jaccard index of 0.071 means 7% of the combined target set is bound by both compounds. The IDF-weighted score of 0.075 accounts for non-specific binding to metabolic enzymes.
Note: High target overlap does not imply identical mechanism or therapeutic equivalence. Binding affinity, tissue distribution, bioavailability, and downstream signaling differ significantly between compounds even when they bind the same protein.
