Chugai In-Licenses PI3K Inhibitor Inavolisib for Breast Cancer with a PIK3CA Mutation

“PIK3CA mutations are detected in approximately 40%1 of patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive breast cancer. Patients with PIK3CA mutated HR-positive, HER2 negative advanced BC have a poorer prognosis and thus there remains a significant unmet need for this patient group. Inavolisib, which has shown positive data in global clinical trials, is expected to be a new treatment option for patients with breast cancer. Chugai will work closely with Roche to conduct domestic development in order to bring inavolisib to patients with breast cancer as soon as possible,” said Chugai’s President and CEO, Dr. Osamu Okuda.
