There is still unmet medical need in cancer treatment mainly due to drug resistance and adverse drug events. Therefore, the search for better drugs is essential. Computer-aided drug design (CADD) and discovery tools are useful to streamline the lengthy and costly drug development process. Anthraquinones are a group of naturally occurring compounds with unique scaffold that exert various biological properties including anticancer activities. This protocol describes a systematic review that provide insights into the computer-aided drug design and discovery based on anthraquinone scaffold for cancer treatment. It was prepared in accordance with the “Preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis protocols (PRISMA-P) 2015 guidelines, and published in the “International prospective register of systematic reviews” database (PROSPERO: CRD42023432904). Search strategies will be developed based on the combination of relevant keywords and executed in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and MedRxiv. Only original studies that employed CADD as primary tool in virtual screening for the purpose of designing or discovering anti-cancer drugs involving anthraquinone scaffold published in English language will be included. Two independent reviewers will be involved to screen and select the papers, extract the data and assess the risk of bias. Apart from exploring the trends and types of CADD methods used, the target proteins of these compounds in cancer treatment will also be revealed in this review. It is believed that the outcome of this study could be utilized to support the ongoing research in similar area with better quality and greater probability of success, consequently optimizing the resources in subsequent in vitro, in vivo, non-clinical and clinical development. It will also serve as an evidence based scientific guide for new research to design novel anthraquinone-derived drug with improved efficacy and safety profile for cancer treatment. |
