Description
Iniparib, also known as BSI-201, is a potent inhibitor of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1). PARP1 plays an important role in the repair of DNA damage in cells that occurs naturally or that is induced by DNA-damaging chemotherapy. Iniparib exhibits significant antitumor activity in vitro and in vivo, either alone or in combination with chemotherapy in preclinical studies.
Stability
