Gedatolisib Combined with Palbociclib and Letrozole in Patients with No Prior Systemic Therapy for Hormone Receptor-Positive, HER2-Negative Advanced Breast Cancer.
Article in Clinical cancer research : an official journal of the American Association for Cancer Research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeNonclinical evidence demonstrating that estrogen receptor, cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6), and PI3K/AKT/mTOR (PAM) pathways cross-promote tumor proliferation in hormone receptor-positive (HR+)/HER2- breast cancer cell lines led to the development of CDK4/6 inhibitors and agents inhibiting single PAM pathway nodes to treat HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer. Simultaneous blockade of the estrogen receptor, CDK4/6, and PAM pathways may optimize antitumor control in the treatment-naïve advanced breast cancer setting. Gedatolisib, a pan-PI3K/mTOR inhibitor, was evaluated as first-line therapy, combined with standard-of-care palbociclib and letrozole, for patients with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer. PATIENTS AND
methodsTreatment-naïve patients from a phase Ib study with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer treated with gedatolisib plus palbociclib and letrozole were analyzed. The primary endpoint of the overall study was investigator-assessed objective response. Secondary endpoints included safety, duration of response, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival.
resultsOf 41 patients, all had stage IV disease, 93% had measurable disease, 78% had visceral metastases, and 22% had detectable PIK3CA mutations. The objective response rate was 79% in patients with evaluable disease (N = 33). The median duration of response was 48 months for confirmed responders. The median PFS was 48.4 months, and the median overall survival was 77.3 months. The overall response rate and PFS were comparable in patients with and without PIK3CA mutations. Fewer than 10% discontinued treatment due to treatment-related adverse events. The most frequent grade 3/4 adverse events were neutropenia (61%), rash (39%), and oral stomatitis (29%).
conclusionsGedatolisib plus palbociclib and letrozole demonstrated preliminary efficacy in patients with no prior systemic therapy for advanced breast cancer. These results warrant further evaluation of gedatolisib added to standard-of-care, first-line therapy for HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer.
