NCT ID NCT03006172
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 09, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This early-phase study tests a new drug called inavolisib in people with advanced solid tumors or breast cancer that have a specific PIK3CA gene mutation. The study aims to find a safe dose and see how well the drug works alone or with other cancer treatments. About 200 participants will receive the drug by mouth, and researchers will monitor side effects and how the drug moves through the body.
