Inavolisib-Based Therapy in PIK3CA-Mutated Advanced Breast Cancer.
Inavolisib is a highly potent and selective inhibitor of the alpha isoform of the p110 catalytic subunit of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex (encoded by PIK3CA) that also promotes the degradation of mutated p110α. Inavolisib plus palbociclib-fulvestrant has shown synergistic activity in preclinical models and promising antitumor activity in early-phase trials. ⋯ In patients with PIK3CA-mutated, hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, inavolisib plus palbociclib-fulvestrant led to significantly longer progression-free survival than placebo plus palbociclib-fulvestrant, with a greater incidence of toxic effects. The percentage of patients who discontinued any trial agent because of adverse events was low. (Funded by F. Hoffmann-La Roche; INAVO120 ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT04191499.).
