Inavolisib plus Fulvestrant with or without Palbociclib in PIK3CA-mutated HR+/HER2- Advanced Breast Cancer and Type 2 Diabetes

Official title: A Phase II Prospective, Open-Label Safety Study of Inavolisib and Fulvestrant With or Without Palbociclib in Participants With PIK3CA-Mutated Hormone Receptor-Positive, HER2-Negative Advanced Breast Cancer and Type 2 Diabetes

Run by Hoffmann-La Roche · NCT07748208 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study tests whether adding inavolisib to fulvestrant, with or without palbociclib, is safe for people with PIK3CA-mutated, HR+, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer and type 2 diabetes.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults with HR+/HER2-negative, PIK3CA-mutated advanced breast cancer and type 2 diabetes controlled on non-insulin therapy, who have not received prior systemic therapy for locally advanced unresectable or metastatic disease.

Probably not a fit

Patients without the specified PIK3CA mutation, with uncontrolled diabetes on current therapy, or those with contraindications to any study drug may not benefit.

What this trial studies

This phase 2 interventional trial evaluates the safety of a triplet or doublet regimen in adults with PIK3CA-mutated, HR+/HER2-negative advanced breast cancer and type 2 diabetes. Participants receive inavolisib with fulvestrant, and may also receive palbociclib depending on eligibility. Eligibility requires measurable disease, good performance status, controlled diabetes on non-insulin therapy, and confirmed PIK3CA mutation. Exclusion criteria include pregnancy and a history of type 1 diabetes. The study is sponsored by Hoffmann-La Roche and sites in Washington, DC and Atlanta, GA.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the regimen could offer an additional treatment option with acceptable safety for this specific breast cancer and diabetes population.

How similar studies have gone: Prior studies in PI3K pathway–targeted therapy have shown mixed safety profiles, making this focused PIK3CA-mutant cohort exploratory but building on existing PI3K inhibitor data.
