Abstract

Although significant resources have been invested in developing and implementing innovative chemotherapeutic techniques for the treatment of various cancers, the illness continues to be a major global problem despite these efforts. An essential method for learning about these cells is studying the mechanisms that control their proliferation and the apoptotic pathways that lead to their eventual demise. The discovery and development of prospective anticancer medicines may be aided by a focus on cell-cycle regulators and apoptotic triggers to battle cancer cells. Predictions show that 22 million individuals will be diagnosed with cancer by the year 2030, as the disease continues to rapidly evolve in the modern day. Over 30 unique kinases have been found, and numerous inhibitors have been produced to the point that they have entered Phase I clinical trials, making kinases one of the most actively researched groups of therapeutic targets at present. Combination therapy with kinase inhibitors has shown promise in the treatment of a wide variety of cancers, including those with mutated genes such as PI3K, BRAF, and KRAS, as well as melanoma that has spread to other parts of the body, pancreatic cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. This analysis of kinase inhibitors' structures gives important new information. (Medical) chemists may benefit from a more thorough knowledge of the mechanism of multi-target inhibition, therapeutic effects, and structural insights of kinase inhibitors when designing and developing dual or multi-targeted kinase inhibitors. Promising pharmacophores may be molecularly hybridized to create potentially more effective therapies for individual cancer patients.
