Carboplatin is a platinum-based chemotherapy drug commonly used for the treatment of various cancers, including ovarian, lung, head and neck, and testicular cancers. It interferes with DNA replication in cancer cells, resulting in cell death. Carboplatin is widely approved and used in clinical oncology today.
