EPIK-P3 Trial Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer drug for people with PROS. It will assess how well and how safely the drug works over a long period of time.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for pediatric and adult patients with PIK3CA-Related Overgrowth Spectrum (PROS) who were previously in the EPIK-P1 study. They must have taken at least one dose of alpelisib after March 9, 2020, and give informed consent. People can't join if they stopped taking alpelisib due to severe side effects or have certain medical conditions like uncontrolled diabetes.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the long-term safety and effectiveness of a drug called Alpelisib in treating PROS. It's an open-label Phase II trial where all participants know they're getting Alpelisib, following up on earlier research from the EPIK-P1 study.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Alpelisib may cause serious skin reactions, high blood sugar levels, lung inflammation (pneumonitis), painful mouth sores (stomatitis), pancreatitis, low platelet counts (thrombocytopenia), kidney issues, liver problems indicated by bilirubin elevation, or heart rhythm changes.
