Trial of BKM120/Tamoxifen-combination in Patients With HR-pos, HER2-neg Breast Cancer
Molecularly Stratified Parallel Cohort, Single Arm Phase II Trial of the Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) Inhibitor Buparlisib (BKM120) in Combination With Tamoxifen in Patients With Hormone Receptor-positive, HER2-negative Inoperable (Locally Advanced or Metastatic) Breast Cancer With Prior Exposure to Antihormonal Therapy

Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This is a clinical trial with a molecularly stratified parallel cohort, single arm design to explore the efficacy and safety of BKM120 in combination with tamoxifen in patients with ER/PR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer with prior exposure to antihormonal therapy, and different biomarker profiles, two of them potentially indicative of constitutive PI3K pathway activation.
