What this study is testing

What is Capivasertib?

Capivasertib is an investigational medicine, given as an injection into a muscle, being studied as a potential treatment for breast cancer.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This is a multicentre phase-III-trial to evaluate the use of capivasertib in patients with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer and progression on prior endocrine-based treatment. The goal of this study is 1.
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
  • This is a blinded study.
