NCT ID NCT04762979

Summary

This study is testing whether adding the drug alpelisib to standard hormone therapy can help control advanced breast cancer that has a specific genetic change (PIK3CA mutation) and has stopped responding to hormone therapy alone. It will involve about 44 adults with this type of breast cancer that has spread. The main goal is to see if this combination can delay the cancer from getting worse.
