The treatment

How it is intended to work

This is how the treatment is meant to work. Whether it helps, and how safe it is, is what this trial is testing.

inavolisib. An orally available inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, inavolisib binds to and inhibits various members of the PI3K family, including activating mutations in the catalytic alpha isoform PIK3CA. PI3K inhibition prevents the activation of the PI3K-mediated signaling pathway and results in the inhibition of growth and survival of PI3K-overexpressing tumor cells. Dysregulation of the PI3K signaling pathway is frequently associated with tumorigenesis and tumor resistance to a variety of antineoplastic agents and radiotherapy. PIK3CA, which encodes the p110-alpha catalytic subunit of the class I PI3K, is frequently mutated in a variety of cancer cell types and plays a key role in cancer cell growth and invasion. NCI Drug Dictionary

fulvestrant. A synthetic estrogen receptor antagonist. Unlike tamoxifen (which has partial agonist effects) and the aromatase inhibitors (which reduce the estrogen available to tumor cells), fulvestrant binds competitively to estrogen receptors in breast cancer cells, resulting in estrogen receptor deformation and decreased estrogen binding. In vitro studies indicate that fulvestrant reversibly inhibits the growth of tamoxifen-resistant, estrogen-sensitive, human breast cancer cell lines. NCI Drug Dictionary

letrozole/palbociclib regimen. A regimen consisting of letrozole and palbociclib that can be used in the treatment of breast cancer. NCI Drug Dictionary

Treatments listed in the registry

  • Inavolisib (Drug): Participants will receive oral inavolisib on Days 2-28 of each 28-day cycle.
  • Fulvestrant (Drug): Participants will receive intramuscular (IM) fulvestrant on Days 1 and 15 of Cycle 1, and then on Day 1 of each subsequent 28-day cycle.
  • Palbociclib (Drug): Some participants will receive oral palbociclib on Days 1-21 of each 28-day cycle.
