In the development of anticancer medications, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2), which belongs to the protein tyrosine kinase family, emerges as one of the most significant targets of interest. The ongoing Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of novel therapeutic medicines toward VEGFR-2 emphasizes the urgent need to discover sophisticated molecular structures that are capable of reliably limiting VEGFR-2 activity. Recognizing the huge potential of deep-learning-based molecular model advancements, we focused our study on exploring the chemical space to find small molecules potentially inhibiting VEGFR-2.
