Description |
Alpelisib (BYL719) is a potent and selective PI3Kα inhibitor with IC50 of 5 nM in a cell-free assay, and minimal effect on PI3Kβ/γ/δ. Phase 2. |
Targets |
PI3Kα [1]
(Cell-free assay) |
5 nM |
|
In vitro |
BYL719 inhibits the proliferation of breast cancer cell lines harboring PIK3CA mutations, correlating with inhibition of various downstream signaling components of the PI3K/Akt pathway. [1]

BYL719(>270 mg/d) shows statistically significant dose-dependent anti-tumor efficacy in PIK3CA mutant xenograft models in rodents. BYL719 has a low clearance, a half-life of 8.5 h and its exposure increases dose proportionally between 30mg/d and 450mg/d, displaying a low inter-individual variability in Cmax and AUC in human. BYL719(270mg/d) shows first signs of clinical efficacy include 1 confirmed partial response in a patient with ER+ breast cancer, and significant PET responses (PMR) and/or tumor shrinkage are achieved in 8 out of 17 evaluated patients.
