Study Assessing the Efficacy, Safety and PK of Alpelisib (BYL719) in Pediatric and Adult Patients With PIK3CA-Related Overgrowth Spectrum
In April, 2022, the U.S. FDA granted accelerated approved for a PI3K inhibitor manufactured by Novartis Pharmaceuticals for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients with severe manifestations of PIK3CA-Related Overgrowth Spectrum (PROS) who require systemic therapy. The drug, Vijoice (AKA alpelisib and BYL719), is the first FDA-approved treatment of PROS. In accordance with the Accelerated Approval Program, continued approval is contingent upon further trials.
Now, Novartis is sponsoring a prospective Phase II multi-center study with an upfront 16-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled period, and extension periods, to assess the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of alpelisib in eligible pediatric and adult participants with conditions within the PROS umbrella, including FAVA. While the study is active, enrollment is currently closed.
