Unverified Answer

To what extent has Alpelisib been studied in the past?

"Alpelisib was first studied two decades ago at Ospedale di Circolo e Fondazione Macchi. There have been 397 completed trials of the medication since then. As of now, there are 236 clinical trials underway that are recruiting patients. Many of these studies are being conducted out of Kingwood, New York." - Anonymous Online Contributor

Unverified Answer

Is Alpelisib a safe medication for patients to take?

"We have given Alpelisib a score of 3 for safety. This is because it is a Phase 3 trial, which means that there is both some evidence of its efficacy and multiple rounds of data supporting its safety." - Anonymous Online Contributor
