Olaparib was among the first PARP inhibitors to reach the oncology market and remains a genetically precise treatment option — it works specifically in tumors with BRCA mutations or broader homologous recombination deficiency, meaning like Cetuximab and Crizotinib in our catalogue, biomarker testing at the receiving facility directly determines whether the drug will actually benefit a given patient, not just whether it's clinically appropriate.
- Approved indications: BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer, breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, and prostate cancer, in various treatment-line settings depending on specific approval
- Mechanism: Inhibits PARP enzymes involved in DNA repair — in cancer cells that already have defective DNA-repair machinery due to BRCA mutations, this additional inhibition causes cell death through accumulated DNA damage the cell cannot fix
- Prescribing prerequisite: Confirmed BRCA mutation or HRD (homologous recombination deficiency) status via genetic testing is required before starting in most indications
- Regional relevance: Growing export demand as genetic testing infrastructure expands across LATAM and parts of Asia, widening the population of patients eligible for this precision therapy
- Myelosuppression: Regular blood count monitoring required throughout treatment
- Rare but serious risk: Myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia (MDS/AML) has been reported with long-term use — periodic blood monitoring should continue even after extended treatment periods
- Pneumonitis: A rare but serious risk requiring prompt evaluation if respiratory symptoms develop
- Pregnancy: Contraindicated — significant teratogenicity risk, with effective contraception required during treatment and for a defined period after the last dose
- Certification: WHO-GMP tablet manufacturing
- Batch-specific testing: Dissolution and bioequivalence testing per batch
- Buyer guidance: We routinely confirm BRCA/HRD testing infrastructure availability with new institutional buyers before finalizing larger orders
