Summary
This study looked at how a drug called BYL719 affects certain proteins in head and neck cancer tumors. Fifteen patients took the drug for a short time before their planned surgery. Researchers compared tumor samples taken before and after treatment to see if the drug changed specific markers. The goal was to learn more about the cancer, not to treat it.
