Key Points

  • Multi-targeted therapies enhance cancer treatment effectiveness, addressing complexities in tumors and resistance mechanisms.
  • Current precision oncology faces limitations due to the adaptability of cancer linked to multifactorial oncogenic processes.
  • AI-driven drug discovery and clinical trial optimization represent vital strategies for progressing cancer treatments.
  • Shifting towards combination therapies may create more robust treatment modalities in oncology, potentially improving patient outcomes.

Abstract

Recent advances in precision oncology have led to significant breakthroughs through the targeting of defined oncogenic drivers. However, the clinical efficacy of single-target therapies is increasingly constrained by the intrinsic complexity and adaptability of cancer. Solid tumors frequently arise from multifactorial oncogenic processes and adapt via diverse resistance mechanisms, ultimately limiting the durability of monotherapies. This review advocates for a paradigm shift toward multi-targeted, AI-enhanced strategies that harness high-throughput multi-omic data to inform the rational design of combination therapies. By leveraging artificial intelligence for drug discovery and repurposing, response prediction, and clinical trial optimization, the field of oncology is poised to transcend reductionist approaches and more fully address the biological intricacy of cancer.
