WHAT LYNPARZA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
WHAT LYNPARZA IS AND HOW IT WORKS
Lynparza contains the active substance olaparib. Olaparib is a type of
cancer medicine called a PARP
inhibitor (poly [adenosine diphosphate-ribose] polymerase inhibitor).
PARP inhibitors can destroy cancer cells that are not good at
repairing DNA damage. These specific
cancer cells can be identified by:

response to platinum chemotherapy, or

looking for faulty DNA repair genes, such as _BRCA_ (BReast CAncer)
genes.
When Lynparza is used in combination with abiraterone (an androgen
receptor signalling inhibitor),
the combination may help enhance anti-cancer effect in prostate cancer
cells with or without faulty
DNA repair genes (e.g., _BRCA_ genes).
WHAT LYNPARZA IS USED FOR
Lynparza is used for the treatment of

A TYPE OF OVARIAN CANCER (_BRCA_-MUTATED) THAT HAS RESPONDED TO THE
FIRST TREATMENT WITH
STANDARD PLATINUM-BASED CHEMOTHERAPY.
o
A test is used to find out whether you have _BRCA_-mutated ovarian
cancer.

OVARIAN CANCER THAT HAS COME BACK (RECURRED). It can be used after the
