Eligibility

Recruits 48 Vulnerable populations are not selected for this trial (isVulnerablePopulationSelected:false). All participants must provide signed informed consent prior to any study-specific procedures (adult participants). Inclusion criteria require female participants aged ≥18 years, so minors are excluded and assent is not applicable. Consent documents (subject information and informed consent forms) are provided (protocol/consent documents listed) and will be completed by the adult participant; no special consent/assent handling for vulnerable groups is indicated in the CTIS data..

Pregnancy Exclusion
Patients are eligible to participate only if are not not pregnant or breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies. a. Is not a Women of Childbearing Potential (WOCBP) A woman is considered to be of childbearing potential if she is postmenarcheal, has not reached a postmenopausal state ( 12 continuous months of amenorrhea with no identified cause other than menopause), and is not permanently infertile due to surgery (i.e., removal of ovaries, fallopian tubes, and/or uterus) or another cause as determined by the investigator (e.g., Müllerian agenesis). b. Is a WOCBP and using a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of <1% per year), with low user dependency, or be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse as their preferred and usual lifestyle during the intervention period and for at least 2 weeks after the final dose of inavolisib. The investigator should evaluate the potential for contraceptive method failure (ie, noncompliance, recently initiated) in relationship to the first dose of study intervention. c. A WOCBP must have a negative highly sensitive pregnancy test (urine or serum) within 24 hours before the first dose of study intervention. Note If a urine test cannot be confirmed as negative (eg, an ambiguous result), a serum pregnancy test is required. In such cases, the participant must be excluded from participation if the serum pregnancy result is positive.
