What does it do?

Talazoparib tosylate belongs to the class of PARP inhibitors. It is primarily used for the treatment of specific cancers such as breast cancer and ovarian cancer. This agent induces cancer cell death by disrupting the ability to repair DNA damage in cancer cells.

Talazoparib tosylate inhibits the PARP enzyme responsible for DNA repair in cancer cells. As a result, cancer cells are unable to repair their own DNA damage and ultimately die. It has a greater impact on cancer cells than on normal cells, leading to therapeutic efficacy.
