4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 Therapeutic indications
Piqray is indicated in combination with fulvestrant for the treatment of postmenopausal women, and men, with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer with a PIK3CA mutation after disease progression following endocrine-based therapy.
4.2 Posology and method of administration
Treatment with Piqray should be initiated by a physician experienced in the use of anticancer therapies.
Patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer should be selected for treatment with Piqray based on the presence of a PIK3CA mutation in tumour or plasma specimens, using a validated test. If a mutation is not detected in a plasma specimen, tumour tissue should be tested if available.
Posology
The recommended dose is 300 mg alpelisib (2× 150 mg film-coated tablets) taken once daily on a continuous basis. Piqray should be taken immediately after food, at approximately the same time each day (see section 5.2). The maximum recommended daily dose of Piqray is 300 mg.
If a dose of Piqray is missed, it can be taken immediately following food and within 9 hours after the time it is usually administered. After more than 9 hours, the dose should be skipped for that day. On the next day, Piqray should be taken at the usual time. If the patient vomits after taking the Piqray dose, the patient should not take an additional dose on that day and should resume the usual dosing schedule the next day at the usual time.
Piqray should be co-administered with fulvestrant. The recommended dose of fulvestrant is 500 mg administered intramuscularly on days 1, 15 and 29, and once monthly thereafter. Please refer to the full prescribing information of fulvestrant.
Treatment should continue as long as clinical benefit is observed or until unacceptable toxicity occurs. Dose modifications may be necessary to improve tolerability.
Dose modifications
Management of severe or intolerable adverse drug reactions (ADRs) may require temporary dose interruption, reduction, and/or discontinuation of Piqray. If dose reduction is required, the dose reduction guidelines for ADRs are listed in Table 1. A maximum of 2 dose reductions are recommended, after which the patient should be permanently discontinued from treatment with Piqray. Dose reduction should be based on the worst preceding toxicity.
Table 1 Recommended dose reduction guidelines for ADRs for Piqray1
| Piqray dose level | Dose and schedule | Number and strength of tablets |
| Starting dose | 300 mg/day continuously | 2× 150 mg tablets |
| First dose reduction | 250 mg/day continuously | 1× 200 mg tablet and 1× 50 mg tablet |
| Second dose reduction | 200 mg/day continuously | 1× 200 mg tablet |
| 1 Only one dose reduction is permitted for pancreatitis. | ||
Tables 2–5 summarise the recommendations for dose interruption, reduction or discontinuation of Piqray in the management of specific ADRs. The clinical judgement of the treating physician, including confirmation of laboratory values if deemed necessary, should guide the management plan of each patient based on the individual benefit/risk assessment for treatment with Piqray.
Hyperglycaemia
Consultation with a healthcare professional experienced in the treatment of hyperglycaemia should always be considered and is recommended for patients who are pre-diabetic or those with fasting glucose (FG) >250 mg/dl or 13.9 mmol/l, body mass index (BMI) >30 or age >75 years.
Consultation with a diabetologist or a healthcare professional experienced in the treatment of hyperglycaemia should always take place for patients with diabetes.
Table 2 Dose modification and management for hyperglycaemia1
| Fasting glucose (FG) values1 | Recommendation |
| Dose modification and management should only be based on fasting glucose (plasma/blood) values. | |
| >ULN-160 mg/dl or >ULN-8.9 mmol/l | No Piqray dose adjustment required. Initiate or intensify oral antidiabetic treatment2. |
| >160–250 mg/dl or >8.9–13.9 mmol/l | No Piqray dose adjustment required. Initiate or intensify oral antidiabetic treatment2. If FG does not decrease to <160 mg/dl or 8.9 mmol/l within 21 days with appropriate oral antidiabetic treatment2,3, reduce Piqray dose by 1 dose level and follow FG-value-specific recommendations. |
| >250–500 mg/dl or >13.9–27.8 mmol/l | Interrupt Piqray. Initiate or intensify oral antidiabetic treatment2 and consider additional antidiabetic medicinal products such as insulin3 for 1–2 days until hyperglycaemia resolves, as clinically indicated. Administer intravenous hydration and consider appropriate treatment (e.g. intervention for electrolyte / ketoacidosis / hyperosmolar disturbances). If FG decreases to <160 mg/dl or 8.9 mmol/l within 3 to 5 days under appropriate antidiabetic treatment, resume Piqray at next lower dose level. If FG does not decrease to <160 mg/dl or 8.9 mmol/l within 3 to 5 days under appropriate antidiabetic treatment, consultation with a healthcare professional with expertise in the treatment of hyperglycaemia is recommended. If FG does not decrease to <160 mg/dl or 8.9 mmol/l within 21 days following appropriate antidiabetic treatment2,3, permanently discontinue Piqray treatment. |
| >500 mg/dl or >27.8 mmol/l | Interrupt Piqray. Initiate or intensify appropriate antidiabetic treatment2,3 (administer intravenous hydration and consider appropriate treatment [e.g. intervention for electrolyte / ketoacidosis / hyperosmolar disturbances]), re-check within 24 hours and as clinically indicated. If FG decreases to <500 mg/dl or <27.8 mmol/l, then follow FG-value-specific recommendations for <500 mg/dl. If FG is confirmed at >500 mg/dl or >27.8 mmol/l after 24 hours, permanently discontinue Piqray treatment. |
| 1 Fasting glucose levels reflect hyperglycaemia grading according to CTCAE Version 4.03 CTCAE = Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events. 2 Applicable antidiabetic medicinal products, such as metformin, SGLT2 inhibitors or insulin sensitisers (such as thiazolidinediones or dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors), should be initiated and the respective prescribing information should be reviewed for dosing and dose titration recommendations, including local diabetic treatment guidelines. Metformin was recommended in the phase III clinical study with the following guidance: Metformin should be initiated at 500 mg once daily. Based on tolerability, the metformin dose may be increased to 500 mg twice daily, followed by 500 mg with breakfast, and 1000 mg with the evening meal, followed by further increase to 1000 mg twice daily if needed (see section 4.4). 3 As recommended in the phase III clinical study, insulin may be used for 1–2 days until hyperglycaemia resolves. However, this may not be necessary in the majority of cases of alpelisib-induced hyperglycaemia, given the short half-life of alpelisib and the expectation that glucose levels will normalise following interruption of Piqray. | |
Baseline diabetic and pre-diabetic status, baseline BMI >30 and baseline age >75 years have been found to be risk factors for hyperglycaemia in patients treated with alpelisib. These risk factors were present in 74.7% of patients with any grade of hyperglycaemia and in 86.2% of patients with grade 3 or 4 hyperglycaemia (see section 4.4).
Rash
Oral antihistamine administration may be considered prophylactically, at the time of initiation of treatment with Piqray. Additionally, antihistamines are recommended to manage symptoms of rash.
Topical corticosteroid treatment should be initiated at the first signs of rash and systemic corticosteroids should be considered for moderate to severe rashes. Based on the severity of rash, Piqray may require dose interruption, reduction or discontinuation as described in Table 3 (see section 4.8).
Table 3 Dose modification and management for rash1
| Grade | Recommendation |
| All grades | Consultation with a dermatologist should always be considered. |
| Grade 1 (<10% body surface area [BSA] with active skin toxicity) | No Piqray dose adjustment required. Initiate topical corticosteroid treatment. Consider adding oral antihistamine treatment to manage symptoms. If active rash is not improved within 28 days of appropriate treatment, add a low dose systemic corticosteroid. |
| Grade 2 (10–30% BSA with active skin toxicity) | No Piqray dose adjustment required. Initiate or intensify topical corticosteroid and oral antihistamine treatment. Consider low-dose systemic corticosteroid treatment. If rash improves to grade <1 within 10 days, systemic corticosteroid may be discontinued. |
| Grade 3 (e.g. severe rash not responsive to medical management) (>30% BSA with active skin toxicity) | Interrupt Piqray until rash improves to grade <1. Initiate or intensify topical/systemic corticosteroid and antihistamine treatment. Once rash improves to grade <1, resume Piqray at next lower dose level. |
| Grade 4 (e.g. severe bullous, blistering or exfoliating skin conditions) (any % BSA associated with extensive superinfection, with intravenous antibiotics indicated; life-threatening consequences) | Permanently discontinue Piqray. |
| 1 Grading according to CTCAE Version 5.0 | |
Diarrhoea
Table 4 Dose modification and management for diarrhoea
| Grade1 | Recommendation |
| Grade 1 | No Piqray dose adjustment is required. Initiate appropriate medical therapy and monitor as clinically indicated. |
| Grade 2 | Interrupt Piqray dose. Initiate or intensify appropriate medical therapy and monitor as clinically indicated. If diarrhoea improves to grade <1, then resume Piqray at same dose level. If diarrhoea recurs as grade >2, interrupt Piqray dose until improvement to grade <1, then resume Piqray at the next lower dose level. |
| Grade 32 | Interrupt Piqray dose. Initiate or intensify appropriate medical therapy and monitor as clinically indicated. If diarrhoea improves to grade <1, then resume Piqray at the next lower dose level. |
| Grade 42 | Permanently discontinue Piqray. |
| 1 Grading according to CTCAE Version 5.0. 2 Patients should additionally be managed according to local standard of care, including electrolyte monitoring, administration of antiemetics and antidiarrhoeal medicinal products and/or fluid replacement and electrolyte supplements, as clinically indicated. | |
Other toxicities
Table 5 Dose modification and management for other toxicities (excluding hyperglycaemia, rash and diarrhoea)1
| Grade | Recommendation |
| Grade 1 or 2 | No Piqray dose adjustment required. Initiate appropriate medical therapy and monitor as clinically indicated2,3. |
| Grade 3 | Interrupt Piqray dose until improvement to grade <1, then resume Piqray at the next lower dose level2. |
| Grade 4 | Permanently discontinue Piqray3. |
| 1 Grading according to CTCAE Version 5.0 2 For grade 2 and 3 pancreatitis, interrupt Piqray dose until improvement to grade <1 and resume at next lower dose level. Only one dose reduction is permitted. If toxicity recurs, permanently discontinue Piqray treatment. 3 For grade 2 total bilirubin elevation, interrupt Piqray dose until recovery to grade <1 and resume at the same dose if resolved in <14 days or resume at the next lower dose level if resolved in >14 days. | |
Special populations
Elderly
No dose regimen adjustment is required in patients aged 65 years or above (see section 5.2).
There are limited data in patients aged >75 years, and especially for those >85 years.
Renal impairment
Based on population pharmacokinetic analysis, no dose adjustment is necessary in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment (see section 5.2). Caution should be used in patients with severe renal impairment as there is no experience with Piqray in this population.
Hepatic impairment
Based on a hepatic impairment study in non-cancer subjects with impaired hepatic function, no dose adjustment is necessary in patients with mild, moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class A, B or C, respectively) (see section 5.2).
Paediatric population
The safety and efficacy of Piqray in children aged 0–18 years have not been established. No data are available.
Method of administration
Piqray is for oral use. The tablets should be swallowed whole. They should not be chewed, crushed or split prior to swallowing. Tablets that are broken, cracked or otherwise not intact should not be ingested.
4.3 Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients listed in section 6.1.
4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use
Fulvestrant
Due to limited data in patients with prior fulvestrant use (n=39, study CBYL719X2101), efficacy is not considered established in this population (see section 5.1).
Hypersensitivity (including anaphylactic reaction)
Serious hypersensitivity reactions (including anaphylactic reaction and anaphylactic shock), manifested by symptoms including, but not limited to, dyspnoea, flushing, rash, fever or tachycardia, were reported in patients treated with Piqray in clinical studies (see section 4.8). Piqray should be permanently discontinued and should not be re-introduced in patients with serious hypersensitivity reactions. Appropriate treatment should be promptly initiated.
Severe cutaneous reactions
Severe cutaneous reactions have been reported with alpelisib. In the phase III clinical study, Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and erythema multiforme (EM) were reported in 1 (0.4%) and 3 (1.1%) patients, respectively. Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) has been reported in the post-marketing setting (see section 4.8).
Piqray treatment should not be initiated in patients with a history of severe cutaneous reactions.
Patients should be advised of the signs and symptoms of severe cutaneous reactions (e.g. a prodrome of fever, flu-like symptoms, mucosal lesions or progressive skin rash). If signs or symptoms of severe cutaneous reactions are present, Piqray should be interrupted until the aetiology of the reaction has been determined. A consultation with a dermatologist is recommended.
If a severe cutaneous reaction is confirmed, Piqray should be permanently discontinued. Piqray should not be re-introduced in patients who have experienced previous severe cutaneous reactions. If a severe cutaneous reaction is not confirmed, Piqray may require treatment interruption, dose reduction or treatment discontinuation as described in Table 3 (see section 4.2).
Hyperglycaemia
Severe hyperglycaemia, in some cases associated with hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar nonketotic syndrome (HHNKS) or ketoacidosis, has been observed in patients treated with Piqray. Some cases of ketoacidosis with fatal outcome have been reported in the postmarketing setting.
In the phase III clinical study, hyperglycaemia occurred more frequently in patients who were diabetic (0 out of 12 patients [0%] with grade 1–2, and 10 out of 12 patients [83.3%] with grade 3–4), pre-diabetic (42 out of 159 patients [26.4%] with grade 1–2, and 77 out of 159 patients [48.4%] with grade 3–4), had BMI >30 at screening (13 out of 74 patients [17.6%] with grade 1–2, and 38 out of 74 patients [51.4%] with grade 3–4) or >75 years of age (6 out of 34 patients [17.6%] with grade 1–2, and 19 out of 34 patients [55.9%] with grade 3–4).
As hyperglycaemia may occur with a rapid onset after starting treatment, it is recommended to self-monitor frequently in the first 4 weeks and especially within the first 2 weeks of treatment, as clinically indicated. A specific schedule for fasting glucose monitoring is recommended in Table 6.
In the phase III clinical study, patients with a history of diabetes mellitus intensified use of antidiabetic medicinal products while on treatment with Piqray.
All patients should be instructed on lifestyle changes that may reduce hyperglycaemia (e.g. dietary restrictions and physical activity).
Table 6 Schedule of fasting glucose monitoring
| Recommended schedule for the monitoring of fasting glucose and HbA1c levels in all patients treated with Piqray | Recommended schedule of monitoring of fasting glucose and HbA1c levels in patients with diabetes, pre-diabetes, BMI >30 or age >75 years treated with Piqray | |
| At screening, before initiating treatment with Piqray | Test for fasting plasma glucose (FPG), HbAlc, and optimise the patient’s level of blood glucose (see Table 2). | |
| After initiating treatment with Piqray | Monitor fasting glucose at weeks 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 after treatment start and monthly thereafter. | |
| Monitor/self-monitor fasting glucose regularly, more frequently in the first 4 weeks and especially within the first 2 weeks of treatment, according to the instructions of a healthcare professional*. | Monitor/self-monitor fasting glucose daily for the first 2 weeks of treatment. Then continue to monitor fasting glucose as frequently as needed to manage hyperglycaemia according to the instructions of a healthcare professional*. | |
| HbAlc should be monitored after 4 weeks of treatment and every 3 months thereafter. | ||
| If hyperglycaemia develops after initiating treatment with Piqray | Monitor fasting glucose regularly, as per local standard of care and at least until fasting glucose decreases to normal levels. | |
| During treatment with antidiabetic medication, continue monitoring fasting glucose at least once a week for 8 weeks, followed by once every 2 weeks, and monitor fasting glucose according to the instructions of a healthcare professional with expertise in the treatment of hyperglycaemia. | ||
| * All glucose monitoring should be performed at the physician’s discretion as clinically indicated. | ||
Patients should be advised of the signs and symptoms of hyperglycaemia (e.g. excessive thirst, urinating more often than usual or greater amount of urine than usual, increased appetite with weight loss).
In the 190 patients with hyperglycaemia, 87.4% (166/190) were managed with antidiabetic medication, and 75.8% (144/190) reported use of metformin as single agent or in combination with other antidiabetic medication (e.g. insulin, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, SGLT2 inhibitors and sulfonylureas).
Oral antidiabetic medication was used in 154 patients. Out of these 154 patients, 17 (11.0%) discontinued study treatment due to hyperglycaemia. Concomitant insulin medication was used in 54 patients; of these 13 (24.1%) discontinued study treatment due to hyperglycaemia.
Out of 162 patients with grade >2 hyperglycaemia, 155 had at least 1 grade improvement, median time to improvement from the first event was 8 days (95% CI: 8 to 10 days).
Of the patients with elevated FPG who continued fulvestrant treatment after discontinuing Piqray (n=58), 98.3% (n=57) had FPG levels that returned to baseline.
The safety of Piqray in patients with Type 1 and uncontrolled Type 2 diabetes has not been established as these patients were excluded from the phase III clinical study. Patients with a medical history of Type 2 diabetes were included. Patients with a history of diabetes mellitus may require intensified diabetic treatment and should be closely monitored.
Based on the severity of the hyperglycaemia, Piqray may require dose interruption, reduction or discontinuation as described in Table 2 (see section 4.2).
Pneumonitis
Pneumonitis, including serious cases of pneumonitis/acute interstitial lung disease, have been reported in Piqray-treated patients in clinical studies. Patients should be advised to report promptly any new or worsening respiratory symptoms. In patients who have new or worsening respiratory symptoms or are suspected to have developed pneumonitis, Piqray treatment should be interrupted immediately and the patient should be evaluated for pneumonitis. A diagnosis of non-infectious pneumonitis should be considered in patients presenting with non-specific respiratory signs and symptoms such as hypoxia, cough, dyspnoea, or interstitial infiltrates on radiological examination and in whom infectious, neoplastic and other causes have been excluded by means of appropriate investigations. Piqray should be permanently discontinued in all patients with confirmed pneumonitis.
Diarrhoea
Severe diarrhoea and clinical consequences, such as dehydration and acute kidney injury, have been reported during treatment with Piqray and resolved with appropriate intervention. 59.5% of patients (n=169) experienced diarrhoea during treatment with Piqray. Grade 3 diarrhoea occurred in 7% (n=20) of patients with no reported cases of grade 4. Among patients with grade 2 or 3 diarrhoea (n=76), the median time to onset was 50 days (range: 1 to 954 days).
Dose reductions of Piqray were required in 5.6% of patients and 2.8% of patients discontinued Piqray due to diarrhoea. In the 169 patients who experienced diarrhoea, antidiarrhoeal medications (e.g. loperamide) were required to manage symptoms in 64.5% (109/169).
Based on the severity of the diarrhoea, Piqray may require dose interruption, reduction or discontinuation as described in Table 4 (see section 4.2).
Patients should be advised to start antidiarrhoeal treatment, increase oral fluids and notify their physician if diarrhoea occurs while taking Piqray.
Osteonecrosis of the jaw
Caution should be exercised when Piqray and bisphosphonates or RANK-ligand inhibitors (e.g. denosumab) are used either simultaneously or sequentially. Piqray treatment should not be initiated in patients with ongoing osteonecrosis of the jaw from previous or concurrent treatment with bisphosphonates/denosumab. Patients should be advised to promptly report any new or worsening oral symptoms (such as dental mobility, pain or swelling, non-healing of mouth sores, or discharge) during treatment with Piqray.
In patients who develop osteonecrosis of the jaw, standard medical management should be initiated.
Symptomatic visceral disease
The efficacy and safety of this medicinal product have not been studied in patients with symptomatic visceral disease.
Sodium
This medicinal product contains less than 1 mmol sodium (23 mg) per film-coated tablet, that is to say essentially ‚sodium-free‘.
4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction
Medicinal products that may increase alpelisib plasma concentrations
BCRP inhibitors
Alpelisib is a substrate for BCRP in vitro. BCRP is involved in the hepatobiliary export and intestinal secretion of alpelisib, therefore inhibition of BCRP in the liver and in the intestine during elimination may lead to an increase in systemic exposure of alpelisib. Therefore, caution and monitoring for toxicity are advised during concomitant treatment with inhibibitors of BCRP (e.g. eltrombopag, lapatinib, pantoprazole).
Medicinal products that may decrease alpelisib plasma concentrations
Acid-reducing agents
The co-administration of the H2 receptor antagonist ranitidine in combination with a single 300 mg oral dose of alpelisib slightly reduced the bioavailability of alpelisib and decreased overall exposure of alpelisib. In the presence of a low-fat low-calorie (LFLC) meal, AUCinf was decreased on average by 21% and Cmax by 36% with ranitidine. In the absence of food, the effect was more pronounced with a 30% decrease in AUCinf and a 51% decrease in Cmax with ranitidine compared to the fasted state without co-administration of ranitidine.
Population pharmacokinetic analysis showed no significant effect of co-administration of acid-reducing agents, including proton pump inhibitors, H2 receptor antagonists and antacids, on the pharmacokinetics of alpelisib. Therefore, alpelisib can be co-administered with acid-reducing agents, provided alpelisib is taken immediately after food (see section 4.2).
Medicinal products whose plasma concentrations may be altered by alpelisib
Based on the results of metabolic in vitro induction and inhibition studies, alpelisib may induce the metabolic clearance of co-administered medicinal products metabolised by
CYP2B6, CYP2C9 and CYP3A and may inhibit the metabolic clearance of co-administered medicinal products metabolised by CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 (time-dependent inhibition) if sufficiently high concentrations are achieved in vivo.
CYP3A4 substrates
No dose adjustment is required when co-administering Piqray with CYP3A4 substrates (e.g. everolimus, midazolam).
In a drug-drug interaction study, co-administration of alpelisib with everolimus, a sensitive CYP3A4 substrate, confirmed that there are no clinically significant pharmacokinetic interactions (increase in AUC by 11.2%) between alpelisib and CYP3A4 substrates. No change in everolimus exposure was observed at alpelisib doses ranging from 250 to 300 mg.
Caution is recommended when Piqray is used in combination with CYP3A4 substrates that also possess an additional time-dependent inhibition and induction potential on CYP3A4 that affects their own metabolism (e.g. rifampicin, ribociclib, encorafenib).
CYP2C9 substrates with narrow therapeutic index
In the absence of clinical data on CYP2C9, caution is recommended. In vitro evaluations indicated that the pharmacological activity of CYP2C9 substrates with a narrow therapeutic index such as warfarin may be reduced by the CYP2C9 induction effects of alpelisib.
CYP2B6 sensitive substrates with narrow therapeutic index
Sensitive CYP2B6 substrates (e.g. bupropion) or CYP2B6 substrates with a narrow therapeutic window should be used with caution in combination with Piqray, as alpelisib may reduce the clinical activity of such medicinal products.
Substances that are substrates of transporters
In vitro evaluations indicated that alpelisib (and/or its metabolite BZG791) has a potential to inhibit the activities of OAT3 drug transporters and intestinal BCRP and P-gp. Piqray should be used with caution in combination with sensitive substrates of these transporters which exhibit a narrow therapeutic index because Piqray may increase the systemic exposure of these substrates.
Hormonal contraceptives
No clinical studies were conducted assessing the drug-drug-interaction potential between alpelisib and hormonal contraceptives.
4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation
Piqray is indicated in men and postmenopausal women. It is not to be used in women who are, or may be, pregnant or breast-feeding (see section 4.1).
Women of childbearing potential/Contraception in males and females
Females of reproductive potential should be advised that animal studies and the mechanism of action have shown that alpelisib can be harmful to the developing foetus. Embryo-foetal development studies in rats and rabbits have demonstrated that oral administration of alpelisib during organogenesis induced embryotoxicity, foetotoxicity and teratogenicity (see section 5.3).
In case females of reproductive potential take Piqray, they should use effective contraception (e.g. double-barrier method) when taking Piqray and for at least 1 week after stopping treatment with Piqray.
Male patients with sexual partners who are pregnant, possibly pregnant or who could become pregnant should use condoms during sexual intercourse while taking Piqray and for at least 1 week after stopping treatment with Piqray.
Please refer to section 4.6 of the prescribing information for fulvestrant.
Pregnancy
Piqray is not indicated and is not to be used in women who are, or may be, pregnant (see section 4.1).
There are no data from the use of alpelisib in pregnant women. Studies in animals have shown reproductive toxicity (see section 5.3). Piqray is not recommended during pregnancy and in women of childbearing potential not using contraception.
The pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential should be verified prior to starting treatment with Piqray.
Breast-feeding
It is not known if alpelisib is excreted in human or animal milk.
Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breast-fed infant, it is recommended that women should not breast-feed during treatment and for at least 1 week after the last dose of Piqray.
Fertility
There are no data on the effects of alpelisib on fertility. Based on repeated dose toxicity studies in animals, alpelisib may impair fertility in males and females of reproductive potential (see section 5.3).
4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines
Piqray has minor influence on the ability to drive and use machines. Patients should be advised to be cautious when driving or using machines in case they experience fatigue or blurred vision during treatment (see section 4.8).
4.8 Undesirable effects

Description of selected ADRs
Hyperglycaemia
Hyperglycaemia (FPG >160 mg/dl) was reported in 190 (66.9%) patients; grade 2 (FPG 160–250 mg/dl), 3 (FPG >250–500 mg/dl) and 4 (FPG >500 mg/dl) events were reported in 16.2%, 33.8% and 4.6% of patients, respectively.
Based on baseline FPG and HbA1c values, 56% of patients were considered pre-diabetic (FPG >100–126 mg/dl [5.6 to 6.9 mmol/l] and/or HbA1c 5.7–6.4%) and 4.2% of patients were considered diabetic (FPG >126 mg/dl [>7.0 mmol/l] and/or HbAlc >6.5%). 74.8% of patients who were pre-diabetic at baseline experienced hyperglycaemia (any grade) when treated with alpelisib. Among all patients with hyperglycaemia of grade >2 (FPG >160 mg/dl), the median time to first occurrence was 15 days (range: 5 days to 900 days) (based on laboratory findings). The median duration of grade >2 hyperglycaemia was 10 days (95% CI: 8 to 13 days). In patients with grade >2 hyperglycaemia, median time to improvement (at least one grade from the first event) was 8 days (95% CI: 8 to 10 days). In all patients who continued on fulvestrant after discontinuing Piqray, FPG levels returned to baseline (normal).
Hyperglycaemia was managed with antidiabetic medicinal products, see section 4.4.
Rash
Rash events (including rash maculopapular, macular, generalised, papular and pruritic, dermatitis and dermatitis acneiform) were reported in 153 (53.9%) patients. Rash was predominantly mild or moderate (grade 1 or 2) and responsive to therapy, and in some cases rash was accompanied by pruritus and dry skin. Grade 2 and 3 events were reported in 13.7% and 20.1% of patients, respectively, with a median time to first onset of 12 days (range: 2 days to 220 days).
Among patients who received prophylactic antirash treatment including antihistamines, rash was reported less frequently than in the overall population; 26.1% vs 53.9% for all grades, 11.4% vs 20.1% for grade 3, and 3.4% vs 4.2% for rash leading to the permanent discontinuation of Piqray. Accordingly, antihistamines may be initiated prophylactically, at the time of initiation of treatment with Piqray.
Gastrointestinal toxicity (nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting)
Diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting were reported in 59.5%, 46.8% and 28.5% of the patients, respectively (see Table 7).
Grade 2 and 3 diarrhoea events were reported in 19.7% and 7.0% of patients, respectively, with a median time to onset of grade >2 diarrhoea of 50 days (range: 1 day to 954 days).
Severe diarrhoea and clinical consequences, such as dehydration and acute kidney injury, have been reported during treatment with Piqray and resolved with appropriate intervention (see Table 4). Antiemetics (e.g. ondansetron) and antidiarrhoeal medicinal products (e.g. loperamide) were used in 28/153 (17.6%) and 109/169 (64.5%) patients, respectively, to manage symptoms.
Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ)
ONJ was reported in 5.6% patients (16/284) in the Piqray plus fulvestrant arm. Fifteen patients experiencing ONJ were exposed to concomitant bisphosphonates (e.g. zoledronic acid) or RANK-ligand inhibitors (e.g. denosumab). Therefore, in patients receiving Piqray and bisphosphonates or RANK-ligand inhibitors, an increased risk of development of ONJ cannot be excluded.
Elderly
In patients >65 years of age treated with alpelisib plus fulvestrant, there was a higher incidence of grade 3–4 hyperglycaemia (45.3%) compared to patients <65 years of age (33.5%), while in patients <75 years of age, grade 3–4 hyperglycaemia was 36% compared to 55.9% in patients >75 years of age.
Reporting of suspected adverse reactions
Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. It allows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via the Yellow Card Scheme at: www.mhra.gov.uk/yellowcard or search for MHRA Yellow Card in the Google Play or Apple App Store.
4.9 Overdose
Symptoms
The adverse reactions associated with overdose have been consistent with the safety profile of Piqray and included hyperglycaemia, nausea, asthenia and rash.
Management
General symptomatic and supportive measures should be initiated in all cases of overdose where necessary. There is no known antidote for Piqray.
5 PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties
Pharmacotherapeutic group: Antineoplastic agents, other antineoplastic agents, ATC code: L01XX65
Mechanism of action
Alpelisib is an a-specific class I phosphatidylinositol3kinase (PI3Ka) inhibitor.
Gain-of-function mutations in the gene encoding the catalytic a-subunit of PI3K (PIK3CA) lead to activation of PI3Ka and AKT-signalling, cellular transformation and the generation of tumours in in vitro and in vivo models.
In breast cancer cell lines, alpelisib inhibited the phosphorylation of PI3K downstream targets including AKT, and showed activity in cell lines harbouring a PIK3CA mutation.
In vivo, alpelisib inhibited the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway and reduced tumour growth in xenograft models, including models of breast cancer.
PI3K inhibition by alpelisib treatment has been shown to induce an increase in oestrogen receptor (ER) transcription in breast cancer cells. The combination of alpelisib and fulvestrant demonstrated increased anti-tumour activity compared to either treatment alone in xenograft models derived from ER-positive, PIK3CA mutated breast cancer cell lines.
The PI3K/AKT signalling pathway is responsible for glucose homeostasis, and hyperglycaemia is an expected on-target adverse reaction of PI3K inhibition.
Clinical efficacy and safety
Study CBYL719C2301 (SOLAR-1)
Piqray was evaluated in a pivotal phase III, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of alpelisib in combination with fulvestrant in postmenopausal women, and men, with HR+, HER2– advanced (locoregionally recurrent or metastatic) breast cancer whose disease had progressed or recurred on or after an aromatase-inhibitor-based treatment (with or without CDK4/6 inhibitor combination).
A total of 572 patients were enrolled into two cohorts, one cohort with PIK3CA mutation and one cohort without PIK3CA mutation breast cancer. Patients were randomised to receive either alpelisib 300 mg plus fulvestrant or placebo plus fulvestrant in a 1:1 ratio.
Randomisation was stratified by presence of lung and/or liver metastasis and previous treatment with CDK4/6 inhibitor(s).
In the cohort with PIK3CA mutation, 169 patients with one or more PIK3CA mutations (C420R, E542K, E545A, E545D [1635G>T only], E545G, E545K, Q546E, Q546R, H1047L, H1047R or H1047Y) were randomised to receive alpelisib in combination with fulvestrant and 172 patients were randomised to receive placebo in combination with fulvestrant. In this cohort 170 (49.9%) patients had liver/lung metastases and 20 (5.9%) patients had received prior CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment.
Patients had a median age of 63 years (range: 25 to 92 years). 44.9% patients were 65 years of age or older and <85 years. The patients included were White (66.3%), Asian (21.7%) and Black or African American (1.2%). The study population included one male subject enrolled in the PIK3CA mutant cohort and treated with alpelisib and fulvestrant. 66.0% and 33.4% of subjects had an ECOG performance status of 0 and 1, respectively.
97.7% of patients had received prior endocrine therapy. In 67.7% of subjects, the last therapy prior to study enrollment was endocrine therapy. Letrozole and anastrozole were the most commonly used endocrine therapies. The setting of last endocrine therapy prior to study enrollment was therapeutic in 47.8% of subjects and adjuvant therapy in 51.9% of subjects. Overall, 85.6% of the patients were considered to have endocrine-resistant disease; primary endocrine resistance (de novo resistance) was observed in 13.2% and secondary endocrine resistance (relapse/progression following an initial response) in 72.4% of patients.
In both cohorts (with or without PIK3CA mutation), demographics and baseline disease characteristics, ECOG performance status, tumour burden and prior antineoplastic therapy were well balanced between the study arms.
During the randomised treatment phase, alpelisib 300 mg or placebo was administered orally once daily on a continuous basis. Fulvestrant 500 mg was administered intramuscularly on cycle 1 days 1 and 15 and then at day 1 of a 28-day cycle during treatment phase (administration ±3 days).
Patients were not allowed to cross over from placebo to alpelisib during the study or after disease progression.
The primary endpoint for the study was progression-free survival (PFS) using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1), based on the investigator assessment in patients harbouring a PIK3CA mutation. The key secondary endpoint was overall survival (OS) for patients with a PIK3CA mutation status.
Other secondary endpoints included PFS for patients without PIK3CA mutation, OS for patients without PIK3CA mutation.
At the final PFS analysis, the median duration of follow-up (between randomisation and data cut-off date of 12-June 2018) was 20 months. The results demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in PFS by investigator assessment in the PIK3CA mutant cohort for patients receiving alpelisib plus fulvestrant, compared to patients receiving placebo plus fulvestrant with an estimated 35% risk reduction of disease progression or death in favour of treatment with alpelisib plus fulvestrant.
Primary PFS results were supported by consistent results from a blinded independent review committee (BIRC) assessment in this cohort, from a randomly selected subset of 50% of randomised patients.

In the cohort with PIK3CA mutation, PFS subgroup analyses per investigator assessment by randomisation stratification factors showed a generally consistent treatment effect in favour of the alpelisib arm, irrespective of presence or absence of lung/liver metastases.
In the subgroup of 170 patients with presence of lung/liver metastases, the PFS HR (95% CI) was 0.56 (0.40, 0.79); median PFS was 3.7 months (95% CI: 2.9, 6.1) in the placebo plus fulvestrant arm and 9.0 months (95% CI: 5.6, 14.5) in the alpelisib plus fulvestrant arm.
Among 20 patients with prior CDK4/6 inhibitor use the hazard ratio (HR) for PFS was 0.48 (95% CI: 0.17, 1.36); median PFS was 1.8 months (95% CI: 1.7, 3.6) in the placebo plus fulvestrant arm and 5.5 months (95% CI: 1.6, 16.8) in the alpelisib plus fulvestrant arm.
