Vulnerable Population
Vulnerable populations are not selected for the study. Informed consent must be provided by the patient (or a legally acceptable representative). A specific pre-screening consent is required for tumour sample or cell-block testing for PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alterations; additional, signed written consents are required for exploratory genetic and/or biomarker research (blood samples and baseline tissue/cell block). Only adults (≥18 years) are eligible.

Inclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"- Adult (≥18 years) females, pre- and/or post-menopausal, and adult (≥18 years) males.\n- Histologically confirmed HR+/HER2− breast cancer determined from the most recent tumour sample (primary or metastatic), as per the American Society of Clinical Oncology and College of American Pathologists guideline recommendations. To fulfil the requirement of HR+ disease, a breast cancer must express ER with or without co-expression of progesterone receptor. Therefore, tumours must be: - ER+ defined as ≥1% of tumour cells stain positive for ER on immunohistochemistry (IHC) or, if no percentage is available, then an Allred IHC score of ≥3/8, - Progesterone receptor positive defined as ≥1% of tumour cells stain positive for progesterone receptor on IHC or, if no percentage is available, then an Allred IHC score of ≥3/8; or progesterone receptor negative defined as <1% of tumour cells stain positive for progesterone receptor on IHC or, if no percentage is available, then an Allred IHC score of ≤2/8; or progesterone receptor unknown, and - HER2− defined as 0 or 1+ intensity on IHC, or 2+ intensity on IHC and no evidence of amplification on in situ hybridisation (ISH), or if IHC not done, no evidence of amplification on ISH.\n- 3.\tPatient with tumours harbouring at least one PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN‑qualifying alteration identified by NGS on tissue (or cell block if tissue is not available) OR another validated test. If the alteration is identified using a test other than a NGS panel evaluating the three genes (PIK3CA, AKT1, and PTEN) on tissue, the investigator must commit to perform the NGS test on tissue (or on cell block if tissue is not available) within 45 days. The NGS result is not required for treatment initiation. Note: Exceptionally, if the PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alteration is identified by NGS in ctDNA and neither tissue nor a cell block is available, the patient may still be included in the study. In these situations, the investigator must document the reason for the unavailability of tissue samples.\n- Metastatic or locally advanced disease with radiological or objective evidence of recurrence or progression (the cancer should have shown progression during or after most recent therapy); locally advanced disease must not be amenable to resection with curative intent (patients who are considered suitable for surgical or ablative techniques following potential down-staging with study treatment are not eligible).\n- Patients are to have received treatment with an ET in combination with CDK4/6i and have: a. Radiological evidence of breast cancer recurrence or progression while on, or within 12 months of the end of (neo)adjuvant treatment with an ET with CDK4/6i, OR b. Radiological evidence of progression while on prior ET with CDK4/6i administered as a treatment line for locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. NOTE: ET + CDK4/6i does not need to be the most recent therapy for locally advanced or metastatic disease but prior exposure is required.\n- 6.\tInformed consent provided by patient (or a legally acceptable representative) a.\tIncluding a pre-screening consent to screen in a FFPE tumour sample or cell-block at baseline for PI3K/AKT pathway altered (PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN) local testing if this has not been previously performed by a NGS panel evaluating the three genes (PIK3CA, AKT1, PTEN) on tissue. Exceptions apply if these alterations have been identified through NGS in ctDNA and there is no tissue or cell block available. b.\tAdditionally, for inclusion in the exploratory genetic and/or biomarker research, provision of signed and dated written genetic and/or biomarker informed consents, respectively, to collect blood samples for central testing for PI3K/AKT pathway altered (PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN) and additional translational biomarker assessments at baseline, cycle 2 day 1 and at end of treatment, and to collect baseline tissue or cell block for biomarker research. Only those patients for whom a PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alteration has been confirmed in ctDNA and no tissue or cell block is available will not be required to provide a tumour sample.\n- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG)/ World Health Organisation (WHO) performance status ≤ 2 at enrollment. NOTE: not more than 20% of patients with ECOG PS2 will be allowed; once this limit is met, additional enrolled patients must have ECOG PS <2.\n- Pre-menopausal patients with ovarian suppression induced by LHRH agonist should agree to use 2 forms of highly effective methods of accepted contraception to prevent pregnancy during the study and for 2 years after the last dose of fulvestrant, or until 16 weeks after discontinuing capivasertib whichever occurs later.\n- Male patients should use barrier contraception (ie, condoms) from the time of screening until 2 years after the last dose of fulvestrant or until 16 weeks after discontinuation of capivasertib, whichever occurs later. Male patients wishing to father children in the future should be advised to arrange for the freezing of sperm prior to the start of study treatment. NOTE: Female partners should be advised to use accepted contraception during their partner’s participation in the study and for 2 years after the last dose of fulvestrant or until 16 weeks after discontinuing capivasertib, whichever occurs later."}

Consent Approach
Informed consent must be provided by the patient (or a legally acceptable representative). A pre-screening consent is required to screen FFPE tumour sample or cell-block at baseline for PI3K/AKT pathway alterations if not previously performed by a NGS panel; exceptions apply when alterations are identified by NGS in ctDNA and no tissue is available. Additional signed written consents are required for exploratory genetic and/or biomarker research (blood samples for central testing and translational assessments, and baseline tissue/cell block for biomarker research). Subject information and ICF documents are provided (documents listed in CTIS); study materials and translations into Spanish are present in the record.
