Cisplatin is a platinum-based chemotherapy drug used principally in the treatment of various cancers including testicular, ovarian, bladder, and lung cancers. It acts by forming DNA crosslinks that inhibit DNA repair and replication, ultimately leading to cell death. Cisplatin is FDA approved and is widely used as a standard treatment option in oncology.
Pharmacokinetic parameters reported for adult cancer patients receiving cisplatin via intravenous infusion.
