Focusing on overlapping drugs, this review compared the performance of in vitro NAMs, animal studies, and microphysiological systems (MPS) in predicting drug-induced liver injury (DILI). We observed considerable variability among in vitro NAMs and potential advantages over animal models. Moreover, limited MPS data hindered meaningful comparison. To enable objective and systematic assessment of NAMs, we propose DILIference, a curated reference drug list compiled from the literature to guide the development and benchmarking of DILI-predictive NAMs. a1359-6446
