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). |
Tamoxifen | Nolvadex | ICI-46474 | Hormone - Anti-estrogens 29 | Nolvadex (tamoxifen) is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), which decreases DNA synthesis and cell growth and is FDA approved for breast cancer (FDA.gov). |

PIK3CA act mut | estrogen-receptor positive breast cancer | predicted - sensitive | Capivasertib + Tamoxifen | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, the combination of Truqap (capivasertib) and 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4-OHT) worked synergistically or additively to inhibit growth of several estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cell lines in culture, including cell lines with PIK3CA activating mutations, and overcame tamoxifen resistance in a resistant cell line (PMID: 26116361). | 26116361 |
