FINER Trial Summary

This trial will test whether Ipatasertib can help treat breast cancer that has progressed despite standard hormone therapy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for post-menopausal women or those with ovarian suppression, aged 18+, who have advanced ER+ and HER-2 negative breast cancer that has worsened after treatment with CDK 4/6 inhibitors and aromatase inhibitors. They must be in good health otherwise, not on other cancer treatments, and haven't used certain drugs like fulvestrant or PI3K pathway inhibitors.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if adding Ipatasertib to the standard therapy Fulvestrant can slow down breast cancer growth. Participants will either receive Ipatasertib plus Fulvestrant or a placebo alongside Fulvestrant to compare effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include digestive issues, changes in blood sugar levels (which could affect diabetics), increased cholesterol or triglycerides, liver problems, heart rhythm changes (QTc prolongation), allergic reactions to drug components, and infections.
