contents <p>This work introduces a physics-driven eigenvalue framework for anticancer drug design, moving beyond traditional geometry-based heuristics and data-driven docking. Instead of treating protein–ligand binding as a rigid lock-and-key or induced-fit process, we model the protein binding pocket as a field-response kernel and ligands as field-energy distributions. Binding affinity and resilience are defined through the dominant eigenvalue (λ_max) and corresponding eigenpartner eigenfunction (f_max) of this kernel.</p> <p>Our framework addresses three major challenges in oncology drug discovery:</p> <p>1. Isoform Selectivity – achieving discrimination between pathological and physiological isoforms (e.g., CA IX vs. CA II).</p> <p>2. Mutation Resilience – retaining activity against resistance mutations such as BCR-ABL T315I, where conventional inhibitors fail.</p> <p>3. Microenvironmental Adaptation – maintaining binding under hypoxic, acidic, and dynamically changing tumor conditions.</p> <p>Simulation and experimental validation show ~30% improvement in isoform selectivity, 85% resilience across 100 mutation variants, and robust efficacy under hypoxia and acidity. In vivo xenografts demonstrate superior tumor reduction (60% vs. 40% for imatinib).</p> <p>Beyond oncology, the eigenpartner principle generalizes to Alzheimer’s disease, HIV protease inhibition, and antibiotic resistance, bridging physics, mathematics, and pharmacology into a single, interpretable, and future-proof drug design paradigm.</p>
