Scientists test Triple-Threat attack on Tough-to-Treat breast cancer

NCT ID NCT04253561

Summary

This early-stage study tested adding a new drug called ipatasertib to two standard medications (trastuzumab and pertuzumab) for people with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer that also has a specific genetic change (PIK3CA mutation). The main goal was to find the safest and most effective dose of the new three-drug combination and to see how well patients tolerated it, with a special focus on managing side effects like diarrhea. It involved 17 patients whose cancer had spread and who had already received initial treatment.
