Selective Inhibitor Design for Kinase Homologs Using Multiobjective Monte Carlo Tree Search

Abstract

structure generator based on reinforcement learning that is capable of simultaneously optimizing multiobjective problems. Our structure generator successfully proposed selective inhibitors for tyrosine kinases while optimizing 18 objectives consisting of inhibitory activities against 9 tyrosine kinases, 3 pharmacokinetics endpoints, and 6 other important properties. These results show that our structure generator and optimization strategy for selective inhibitors will contribute to the further development of practical structure generators for drug designs.
