Worldwide, colorectal cancer takes up the third position in commonly detected cancer and fourth in cancer mortality. Recent progress in molecular modeling studies has led to significant success in drug discovery using structure and ligand-based methods. This study highlights aspects of the anticancer drug design. The structure and ligand-based drug design are discussed to investigate the molecular and quantum mechanics in anti-cancer drugs. Recent advances in anticancer agent identification driven by structural and molecular insights are presented. As a result, the recent advances in the field and the current scenario in drug designing of cancer drugs are discussed. This review provides information on how cancer drugs were formulated and identified using computational power by the drug discovery society.

Chemotherapy employs anti-cancer drugs to stop the growth of cancerous cells, but one common obstacle to the success is the development of chemoresistance, which leads to failure of the previously effective anti-cancer drugs. Resistance arises from different mechanistic pathways, and in this critical review, we focus on the Fanconi Anemia (FA) pathway in chemoresistance. This pathway has yet to be intensively researched by mainstream cancer researchers. This review aims to inspire a new thrust toward the contribution of the FA pathway to drug resistance in cancer. We believe an indepth understanding of this pathway will open new frontiers to effectively treat drug-resistant cancer.
