Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase Inhibition: “Targeted” Therapy for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
22 Sept 2010
Abstract excerpt
In contrast to endocrine-sensitive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer, novel agents capable of treating advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) are lacking. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors are emerging as one of the most promising "targeted" therapeutics to treat TNBC, with the intended "target" being DNA repair. PARPs are a family of enzymes involved in...
