Carboplatin is a chemotherapy medication commonly used in the treatment of ovarian, lung, and head and neck cancers.
It belongs to a class of drugs known as platinum-based chemotherapy agents.
Carboplatin works by forming DNA cross-links in cancer cells, which may interfere with their ability to divide and replicate, potentially leading to cell death.
Because it targets rapidly dividing cells, it may also affect some normal cells, which is why side effects can occur.
