Developing Dynamic Structure‐Based Pharmacophore and ML‐Trained QSAR Models for the Discovery of Novel Resistance‐Free RET Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors

25.03.2024

Activation of RET tyrosine kinase plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of various cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer, papillary thyroid cancers, multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A and 2B (MEN2A, MEN2B), and familial medullary thyroid cancer. Gene fusions and point mutations in the RET proto-oncogene result in constitutive activation of RET signaling pathways. Consequently, developing effective inhibitors to target RET is of utmost importance. Small molecules have shown promise as inhibitors by binding to the kinase domain of RET and blocking its enzymatic activity. However, the emergence of resistance due to single amino acid changes poses a significant challenge. In this study, a structure-based dynamic pharmacophore-driven approach using E-pharmacophore modeling from molecular dynamics trajectories is proposed to select low energy favorable hypotheses, and ML-trained QSAR models to predict pIC50 values of compounds. For this aim, extensive small molecule libraries were screened using developed ligand-based models and potent compounds which are capable of inhibiting RET activation were proposed.
