Capivasertib | Truqap | AZD5363|AZD 5363|AZD-5363 | Akt Inhibitor (Pan) 21 | Truqap (capivasertib) decreases PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling by inhibition of AKT1, AKT2, and AKT3, potentially resulting in decreased cell proliferation (PMID: 22294718, PMID: 32532747, PMID: 32312891). Truqap (capivasertib) in combination with Faslodex (fulvestrant) is FDA-approved for use in patients with hormone receptor-positive, ERBB2 (HER2)-negative, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer with one or more PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN-alterations (FDA.gov). |
Paclitaxel | Taxol | 7-Epipaclitaxel | Antimicrotubule Agent 14 BCL2 Family Inhibitor 6 | Taxol (paclitaxel) binds to tubulin to inhibit microtubule disassembly, which results in decreased cell division, and also binds to the anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2, promoting apoptosis (NCI Drug Dictionary). |

PIK3CA mutant | Her2-receptor negative breast cancer | no benefit | Capivasertib + Paclitaxel | Phase II | Actionable | In a Phase II trial, the addition of Truqap (capivasertib) to Taxol (paclitaxel) therapy did not improve progression-free survival compared to placebo (10.9 vs 10.8 months) in patients with PIK3CA-mutant, Esr1-positive, Erbb2 (Her2)-negative breast cancer (PMID: 30860570; NCT01625286). | 30860570 |
PIK3CA act mut | triple-receptor negative breast cancer | predicted - sensitive | Capivasertib + Paclitaxel | Phase II | Actionable | In a Phase II trial (PAKT), addition of Truqap (capivasertib) to Taxol (paclitaxel) as first-line therapy significantly improved median progression-free survival (9.3 vs 3.7 months, HR=0.30, p=0.01) and reduced risk (66%, HR=0.34, p=0.04) compared to Taxol (paclitaxel) alone in patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer harboring activating mutations in AKT1 (E17K, n=1) or PIK3CA (n=17), or inactivating mutations or gene loss in PTEN (n=13) (PMID: 31841354; NCT02423603). | 31841354 |
