Combining chidamide and everolimus for advanced breast cancer treatment
Official title: A Prospective Cohort, Open, Phase II Clinical Study of Chidamide/Everolimus Combined With Endocrine Therapy for PIK3CA Wild-type/Mutant Hormone Receptor Positive/Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 Negative Advanced Breast Cancer
Run by Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences · NCT05983107 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing whether combining a new drug called chidamide with hormone therapy helps people with a specific type of advanced breast cancer, while also seeing if everolimus works better for those with a different gene mutation.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are women aged 18 to 75 with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer who have previously progressed after treatment with CDK4/6 inhibitors.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with HER2 positive breast cancer or those who have not received prior treatment with CDK4/6 inhibitors may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This study investigates the effectiveness and safety of chidamide combined with endocrine therapy for patients with PIK3CA wild-type HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer, and everolimus combined with endocrine therapy for those with PIK3CA mutant HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer. It is an open, multi-center, Phase II exploratory trial that divides participants into two cohorts based on their PIK3CA gene mutation status. Patients will receive treatment until disease progression or intolerable toxicity occurs, with potential cross-over between treatment groups based on researcher judgment.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide new targeted treatment options for patients with advanced breast cancer.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with similar targeted therapies in advanced breast cancer, suggesting potential for success in this approach.
