In contrast, machine learning can facilitate epitope-specific design: directing the algorithm towards favourable epitopes that elicit favourable biological responses, which may improve the prospects for the antibody in drug trials. These targets, along with many others, are universally deemed as ‘difficult-to-drug’ targets.
