Research summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects, good or bad, of inavolisib plus palbociclib and letrozole versus placebo plus a palbociclib and letrozole on patients with HR , HER2 advanced breast cancer. Participants in this study will get either inavolisib plus palbociclib and letrozole or placebo plus palbociclib and letrozole.
Inavolisib is a drug that works by blocking a signaling pathway that is used by cancer cells to grow, known as the PI3K pathway. A gene in this pathway, called PIK3CA, is sometimes mutated in breast cancer. Other studies have shown that inavolisib treatment may be more effective for patients whose breast cancer has mutated PIK3CA. This study will only enroll patients who have breast cancer with mutated PIK3CA.
Treatment will continue until disease progression per RECIST v1.1, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, death, or if the study is terminated by the Sponsor. The total duration of study treatment for each individual is expected to range from 1 day to more than 30 months.Approximately 450 participants will be enrolled in this study. Participants will be randomized to one of the following treatment arms in a 1:1 ratio:
Inavolisib plus palbociclib and letrozole
• Inavolisib: 9-mg tablet starting dose taken by mouth (PO) once a day (QD) continuously, on Days 128 of each 28-day cycle, beginning on Day 1 of Cycle 1
• Palbociclib: 125-mg capsule or tablet starting dose taken PO QD, ideally on Days 1 21 of each 28-day cycle, beginning on Day 1 of Cycle 1
• Letrozole: 2.5-mg tablet taken PO QD continuously
Placebo (for inavolisib) plus palbociclib and letrozole
• Placebo (for inavolisib): 9-mg tablet starting dose taken PO QD continuously, on Days 128 of each 28-day cycle, beginning on Day 1 of Cycle 1
• Palbociclib: 125-mg capsule or tablet starting dose taken PO QD, ideally on Days 1 21 of each 28-day cycle, beginning on Day 1 of Cycle 1
• Letrozole: 2.5-mg tablet taken PO QD continuouslyREC name
