摘要

Artificial intelligence (AI) is being used in oncological drug development to address the high costs, low success rates, and long timelines that characterize traditional drug development pipelines. The use of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) models in computer-aided drug design is constantly growing owing to their capacity to analyze large, heterogeneous datasets, their ability to capture nonlinear biological trends, and their integration of various molecular and clinical characteristics. AI applications accelerate target discovery by predicting protein structures, ranking disease-relevant genes, and assessing target drugability. AI can be used to conduct rapid searches of multiplexed chemical libraries, predict drug-target interactions, and optimize the pharmacological and physicochemical properties of drugs in virtual screening. Advanced neural network designs also aid in de novo drug design, which involves developing new molecular structures with therapeutic properties of interest. This review outlines how AI has been used for target identification, virtual screening, de novo molecular design, and, specifically, in cancer applications. It further discusses the major issues in AI-based drug development, such as data quality, model interpretation, computational constraints, and ethical and regulatory considerations, which remain essential obstacles to broader clinical translation.
