Study Description

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of alpelisib plus fulvestrant in men
and post-menopausal women with HR-positive, HER2-negative, advanced or metastatic breast
cancer (aBC) with a PIK3CA mutation, whose disease has progressed on or after
endocrine-based treatment This is a Phase IV, prospective, multicenter, open-label, non-comparative interventional
study to assess the safety of alpelisib plus fulvestrant in men and post-menopausal women
with HR-positive, HER2-negative, aBC with a PIK3CA mutation, whose disease has progressed
on or after endocrine-based treatment.

Participants will be treated with alpelisib 300 mg orally once daily starting on Cycle 1
Day 1 in combination with fulvestrant (intramuscular injection) 500 mg on Cycle 1 Day 1
and Day 15, and Day 1 of every cycle thereafter in a 28 day cycle. Patients may be
discontinued from treatment earlier due to unacceptable toxicity, disease progression,
withdrawal of consent, or at the discretion of the investigator or the patient.
