PARP inhibitors in ovarian cancer [PDF]
Slow progress in improving the outcome of ovarian cancer with chemotherapy over the last decade has stimulated research into molecularly targeted therapy. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors target DNA repair and are specifically active in cells that have impaired repair of DNA by the homologous recombination (HR) pathway.

Advances in the use of PARP inhibitor therapy for breast cancer [PDF]
Poly-ADP-ribose polymerase 1 (PARP-1) and PARP-2 are DNA damage sensors that are most active during S-phase of the cell cycle and that have wider-reaching roles in DNA repair than originally described.

PARP inhibitors: the race is on [PDF]
Since the seminal publications in 2005 that demonstrated the exquisite sensitivity of BRCA1 and BRCA2 (BRCA1/2) mutant cell lines and xenografts to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition (Bryant et al, 2005; Farmer et al, 2005), the race has been on to exploit single-agent PARP inhibitors for clinical use through the concept of tumour-specific ...

PARP inhibitors combined with radiotherapy: are we ready?
PARP was an enzyme found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells that played a crucial role in repairing damaged DNA. Recently, PARP inhibitors have demonstrated great potential in cancer treatment.

Poly[ADP‐ribose] polymerase (PARP) inhibitors can block DNA single‐strand damage repair and subsequently increase double‐stranded breaks (DSBs) by reducing the activity of the PARP1 protease and by preventing the PARP1 protein from dissociating from ...

A clinical case of repeat use of PARP inhibitors in a patient with mBRCA-associated ovarian cancer
Backgraound. High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is the most common type of ovarian cancer. The prevalence of BRCA1/2 germline mutations is the highest in HGSOC.
