Alpelisib, sold under the brand name Piqray, is a chemotherapy medication used to treat certain types of breast cancer.[1] It is used together with fulvestrant.[1] It results in about an extra 5 months of life without the disease getting worse.[5] It is taken by mouth.[1]

Common side effects include high blood sugar, kidney problems, diarrhea, rash, low blood cells, liver problems, pancreatitis, vomiting, and hair loss.[2] Other side effects may include anaphylaxis, infertility, and pneumonitis.[1] Use during pregnancy may harm the baby.[1] It is an alpha-specific PI3K inhibitor.[1]

Alpelisib was approved for medical use in the United States in 2019 and Europe in 2020.[1][5] In the United States a month of medication costs about 17,000 USD as of 2021.[7]

Medical uses

Alpelisib is used in combination with fulvestrant for the treatment of postmenopausal women, and men, with hormone receptor (HR)‑positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)‑negative, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer with a PIK3CA mutation after disease progression following endocrine therapy as monotherapy.[5][2]

Dosage

The dose is 300 mg twice per day, until no longer effective or side effects become to great.[1]

History

In May 2019, alpelisib was approved in the United States for use in combination with the endocrine therapy fulvestrant, to treat postmenopausal women, and men, with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, PIK3CA-mutated, advanced or metastatic breast cancer following progression on or after an endocrine-based regimen.[2][6][8]

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also approved the companion diagnostic test, therascreen PIK3CA RGQ PCR Kit, to detect the PIK3CA mutation in a tissue and/or a liquid biopsy.[2]

The efficacy of alpelisib was studied in the SOLAR-1 trial (NCT02437318), a randomized trial of 572 postmenopausal women and men with HR-positive, HER2-negative, advanced or metastatic breast cancer whose cancer had progressed while on or after receiving an aromatase inhibitor.[2][9]

The FDA granted the application for alpelisib priority review designation and granted approval of Piqray to Novartis.[2] The FDA granted approval of the therascreen PIK3CA RGQ PCR Kit to Qiagen Manchester, Ltd.[2]

On 28 May 2020, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a positive opinion, recommending the granting of a marketing authorization for the medicinal product alpelisib (Piqray), intended for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer with a PIK3CA mutation.[5] The applicant for this medicinal product is Novartis Europharm Limited.[5] Alpelisib was approved for medical use in the European Union in July 2020.[5]

Legal status
