Overview

Generic Name(s):
pictilisib
NCI Definition [1]:
A small molecule inhibitor of class I phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, pictilisib selectively binds to PI3K in an ATP-competitive manner, inhibiting the production of the secondary messenger phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3) and activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. This may result in inhibition of tumor cell growth, motility and survival in susceptible tumor cell populations. Activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway is frequently associated with tumorigenesis; dysregulated PI3K/Akt signaling may contribute to tumor resistance to a variety of antineoplastic agents.

Pictilisib has been investigated in 2 clinical trials, of which 1 is open and 1 is closed. Of the trials investigating pictilisib, 1 is phase 1 (1 open) and 1 is phase 1/phase 2 (0 open).

HER2 Deficient Expression, HER2 Negative, and AR Negative are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for pictilisib clinical trials.

Breast carcinoma and malignant solid tumor are the most common diseases being investigated in pictilisib clinical trials [2].
