Frequently asked questions about BKM120 and Olaparib

What is BKM120 used for?

BKM120 is an investigational small molecule being studied in oncology. Clinical trials have evaluated it in advanced solid tumors, breast cancer, HER2-positive primary breast cancer, glioblastoma, thymoma, and advanced carcinomas with squamous cell histology. It has also been studied in patients with hepatic impairment. BKM120 is not approved and remains in clinical development.

What does BKM120 target?

BKM120 is a small molecule that targets the PI3K pathway. Clinical trials have enrolled patients with PI3K pathway activated tumors, indicating its mechanism involves inhibiting this signaling pathway. The drug is being investigated for its potential role in treating cancers driven by PI3K activation.

Who makes BKM120?

BKM120 is being developed by Novartis AG, which trades under the ticker NVS. The company has sponsored multiple clinical trials of the drug across various oncology indications. Novartis is responsible for the investigational development of BKM120.

What phase is BKM120 in?

BKM120 has completed Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials. The completed trials include Phase 1 studies in glioblastoma and hepatic impairment, and Phase 2 studies in HER2-positive breast cancer and PI3K-activated tumors. BKM120 is investigational and has not received FDA approval.

What clinical trials is BKM120 in?

BKM120 has been studied in four completed clinical trials. These include NCT01473901, a Phase 1 dose escalation study in newly diagnosed glioblastoma; NCT01727128, a pharmacokinetic study in hepatic impairment; NCT01816594, a Phase 2 neoadjuvant study in HER2-positive breast cancer; and NCT01833169, a Phase 2 study in PI3K-activated tumors.

Is BKM120 the same as buparlisib?

BKM120 is also known as buparlisib. The drug has been referred to by both names in clinical research. BKM120 is the investigational code name used by Novartis, while buparlisib is the generic name. Both names refer to the same small molecule PI3K inhibitor.
