Olaparib is an inhibitor of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzymes, and was developed by AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals LP. Olaparib has therapeutic potential for treating cancers associated with impaired DNA repair capabilities, particularly those with deficiencies in the homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway. Olaparib is an available therapy option for ovarian cancer patients with deficiencies in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes. Olaparib can selectively kill cancer cells without compromising normal cells. Compared to traditional chemotherapy means, adverse reactions are much smaller.
