Uses of Nuparp 200 Tablet 60s

Rucaparib is a medication used to treat certain types of cancer. It is in a class of medications called poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors. PARP is an enzyme that plays an essential role in DNA repair. Rucaparib works by blocking PARP, which can lead to cancer cell death.

Rucaparib is used to:

• • Maintain the response to other treatments for certain types of ovarian cancer that has returned in adults who have completely responded or partially responded to other chemotherapy treatment(s).
  • Treat certain types of ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, and primary peritoneal cancer in people with a specific gene who have received treatment with at least two other chemotherapy treatments.

Mechanism of Action

Rucaparib is a PARP inhibitor. PARP is an enzyme that helps cells repair damaged DNA. Rucaparib works by blocking PARP, which can lead to cancer cell death.

Cancer cells often have DNA damage that makes them more likely to die. Rucaparib can help these cells die by preventing them from repairing their damaged DNA.

Rucaparib is most effective in cancer cells that have mutations in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes. These genes are involved in DNA repair, so mutations in these genes make cells more dependent on PARP for DNA repair.
