Unlock the potential of targeting the PI3K/AKT pathway in HR+/HER2-negative aBC with TRUQAP plus fulvestrant1

TRUQAP plus fulvestrant is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with HR+/HER2-negative (defined as IHC 0 or 1+, or IHC 2+/ISH-) locally aBC or mBC with one or more PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alterations following recurrence or progression on or after an ET.2,3

After treatment with ET ± CDK4/6i, an unmet need persists for patients with HR+/HER2-negative aBC with one or more PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alterations, as their prognosis remains poor.1

TRUQAP plus fulvestrant combination therapy targets oncogenic signalling driven by PI3K/AKT pathway activation.2,4

You could delay disease progression for longer with TRUQAP plus fulvestrant compared with placebo plus fulvestrant.1

 

CAPItello-291 was a Phase 3 randomised, double-blind trial of 708 patients with HR+/HER2-negative aBC that were pre-, peri- and post-menopausal women and men.1 Patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive TRUQAP plus fulvestrant or placebo plus fulvestrant.1

In CAPItello-291, for patients with HR+/HER2-negative aBC and PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alterations, TRUQAP plus fulvestrant achieved a statistically significant improvement in mPFS compared with placebo plus fulvestrant.1*

 

Overactivation of the AKT pathway can occur in ~50% of patients with HR+/HER2-negative aBC. These patients could benefit from longer progression-free survival. Through biomarker testing, you can identify eligible patients for treatment with TRUQAP plus fulvestrant.1,2

 

 

*Patients with PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN-altered tumours treated with TRUQAP plus fulvestrant (n=155) experienced statistically significantly longer mPFS: 7.3 months vs 3.1 months with placebo plus fulvestrant (n=134); HR 0.50, 95% CI: 0.38–0.65, P<0.001.1

When caring for people with breast cancer, we know how important it is for you to use treatments that have manageable side effects.

Data from 355 patients who received TRUQAP plus fulvestrant in CAPItello-291 showed that adverse events were mostly grade 1 or 2.2

The most common adverse events (occurring in ≥20% of patients) of any grade
that were reported in the TRUQAP plus fulvestrant group were:2
