Capivasertib‒fulvestrant combo delays second progression, chemo in advanced breast cancer
The addition of capivasertib to fulvestrant improves time to second progression (PFS2) and time to first subsequent chemotherapy or death (TTFSC) in PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN-altered patients with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer and the overall population, suggesting a clinically meaningful benefit when compared with placebo plus fulvestrant, as shown in the phase III CAPItello-291 trial.

First-line capivasertib-paclitaxel therapy misses survival target in metastatic TNBC
Combination treatment with capivasertib and paclitaxel falls short of prolonging overall survival (OS) compared with placebo plus paclitaxel in patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), either in the overall or PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN-altered populations, as shown in the CAPItello-290 trial
