Olanib 50 MG (Olaparib INN )

Basic Product Information of Olanib (Olaparib) 50mg

How Olanib (Olaparib) Works

Olanib contains Olaparib, a potent oral inhibitor of the Poly (ADP-ribose) Polymerase (PARP1, PARP2 and PARP3) family of enzymes. PARP enzymes play an essential role in repairing single-strand breaks (SSBs) in DNA. When these breaks are not repaired, they progress to double-strand breaks (DSBs) during cell replication, which healthy cells normally correct through homologous recombination repair (HRR).

In tumours carrying BRCA1/BRCA2 mutations or other homologous recombination deficiencies (HRD), this repair pathway is impaired. Olaparib works by inhibiting PARP enzymatic activity and trapping PARP-DNA complexes, preventing single-strand break repair. In HRD tumour cells, the resulting accumulation of unrepaired DNA damage becomes lethal, a mechanism known as synthetic lethality, leading to selective destruction of cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue to a greater extent.

Olanib is administered as a convenient oral tablet, offering an alternative to intravenous chemotherapy for maintenance and targeted treatment in patients whose tumours carry the relevant genetic biomarkers. Treatment eligibility is typically confirmed through BRCA or HRD biomarker testing prior to initiation.

How to Take Olanib (Olaparib)

Monitoring and Dosage Adjustments

Regular monitoring is essential throughout Olanib treatment. Your oncologist will check complete blood counts at baseline and monthly thereafter to monitor for anaemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia, and will watch for early signs of myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukaemia. Monitoring also includes assessment for pneumonitis (new or worsening respiratory symptoms), venous thromboembolism, and periodic review of renal function. Treatment may be interrupted or dose-reduced to manage adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or anaemia. Report any unusual bruising, bleeding, persistent fatigue, breathlessness, or fever to your doctor immediately.

Drug Interactions and Important Information

Avoid concomitant use of Olanib with strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitors (such as itraconazole, clarithromycin, and certain protease inhibitors) or strong or moderate CYP3A inducers (such as rifampicin, carbamazepine, and phenytoin) where possible, as these significantly alter Olaparib plasma exposure. If co-administration cannot be avoided, dose adjustment as directed by the prescribing physician is required.

Use with caution alongside other myelosuppressive anticancer agents, as combined use may potentiate and prolong bone marrow suppression. Women of childbearing potential should use effective, non-hormonal contraception during treatment and for at least one month after the final dose. Always inform your physician of all medications, supplements, and herbal products you are currently taking before starting Olanib.

Side Effects and Precautions

Who Should Use Olanib (Olaparib)?

Olanib is suitable for adult patients diagnosed with BRCA-mutated or HRD-positive ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer, HER2-negative BRCA-mutated breast cancer, germline BRCA-mutated metastatic pancreatic cancer, or HRR gene-mutated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, as confirmed by an approved biomarker or genetic test. It is prescribed by medical oncologists and gynaecologic oncologists experienced in genomically-guided cancer therapy. A thorough medical assessment including BRCA/HRR testing, baseline blood counts, and renal and hepatic function is required before initiating treatment.
