Chemical and geometric representation fidelity improves drug--target affinity prediction

The paper introduces ReGeoDTA, a framework that preserves chemical heterogeneity and continuous geometric relationships in drug and protein representations to improve drug–target affinity prediction. Experiments on three benchmark datasets show that maintaining representation fidelity consistently enhances predictive accuracy across various DTA architectures, while degrading representations harms performance and cannot be recovered by more complex downstream models. The study highlights representation fidelity as a key upstream design principle for accurate and generalizable affinity prediction.

Beyond SBDD: Geometric Deep Learning in Polypharmacology and Multi-target Drug Design

arXiv:2607. 20550v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The traditional "one drug, one target" paradigm of structure-based drug design (SBDD) frequently proves inadequate for treating multifactorial diseases such as cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, owing to compensatory signaling pathways and the emergence of drug resistance.
