Buparlisib (INN,[1] codenamed BKM120) is an investigational small molecule orally-available pan-class I phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitor.[2]

Clinical trials

In December 2015 it is reporting results for the phase III BELLE-2 clinical trial for advanced HR+/HER2 endocrine-resistant breast cancer.[3] Encouraging results are reported in some sub-populations — e.g., some PI3K mutations.[3]Lawrence, Leah (11 December 2015).

A Phase Ib clinical trial combined buparlisib and letrozole in the treatment of estrogen receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative metastatic cancer. Results indicated that the drug combination was safe on two different treatment schedules and the clinical benefit rate was 31%. Common toxicities included hyperglycemia, nausea, fatigue, transaminitis, and mood disorders, though the toxicities are reversible and well tolerated.[4]
