We introduce the theoretical principles of DMs and then categorize various DM-based molecular generation methods according to their mathematical and chemical applications. We also examine the performance of these models on benchmark datasets, with a particular focus on comparing the generation performance of existing 3D methods. Finally, we conclude by emphasizing current challenges and suggesting future research directions to fully exploit the potential of DMs in drug discovery.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":301,"journal":{"name":"Drug Discovery Today","volume":"30 7","pages":"Article 104413"},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144493214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, challenges remain, including a growing number of therapy adaptation mechanisms and acquired resistance, which are further complicated by the intricate signaling networks of EGFR. Here, we review the rational development and targeting of EGFR-TKIs in the context of TKI-induced cellular death, adaptation, resistance, and eventual clinical failure, to provide a birds-eye view of this highly multidisciplinary field. We end by proposing new approaches based on our developing understanding of the quaternary structure of EGFR, which leverage <em>in situ</em> oligomer architectures to develop therapies that modulate EGFR oligomer-specific interactions and exploit weaknesses in its downstream signaling network to overcome resistance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":301,"journal":{"name":"Drug Discovery Today","volume":"30 7","pages":"Article 104407"},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144336134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
