Study Summary

This trial is testing a drug to see if it works better than current treatments for metastatic breast cancer in patients with a specific gene abnormality. They will also be testing to see if the drug has any serious side effects.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with metastatic breast cancer who have FGFR gene abnormalities. They must have tried 1-3 hormone therapies and up to 2 chemotherapies, or be unable to tolerate certain treatments. Pregnant women, those with prior FGFR inhibitor treatment, significant mineralization conditions, serious eye disorders, unstable brain metastases, or clinically significant calcium-phosphorus issues are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness of futibatinib alone or combined with fulvestrant in treating metastatic breast cancer with specific FGFR gene changes. It aims to understand how patients respond to these treatments after conventional therapies and assess their safety by monitoring side effects.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to organ function due to the inhibition of FGFR pathways. Specifics aren't provided but could involve digestive issues, skin reactions, changes in vision due to retinal/corneal complications if pre-existing conditions are aggravated.
