The purpose of this study was to determine the safety of alpelisib plus fulvestrant in men and post-menopausal women with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, advanced or metastatic breast cancer (aBC) with a PIK3CA mutation, whose disease had progressed on or after endocrine-based treatment.
The study was planned to enroll 40 participants. During the treatment phase, participants were treated with alpelisib 300 mg orally once daily starting on Cycle 1 Day 1 in combination with fulvestrant (intramuscular injection) 500 mg on Cycle 1 Day 1 and Day 15, and on Day 1 of every cycle thereafter (± 3 days) in a 28-day cycle. The planned duration of treatment was 6 months. Participants could be discontinued from treatment earlier due to unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, withdrawal of consent, or at the discretion of the investigator or the participant. For participants who were ongoing on treatment at the end of the planned study duration and who, in the opinion of the investigator, were still deriving clinical benefit from alpelisib, every effort was made to continue provision of study treatment via post-trial access (PTA).

Percentage of Participants With at Least One On-treatment Adverse Events (AEs)
Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) were defined as the adverse events that occurred, or worsened, during the treatment period (i.e. from the first dose of treatment up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug).
Time frame: From start of treatment up to 30 days after last dose of study treatment, assessed up to approximately 7 months
Percentage of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
A Serious Adverse Event (SAE) was any untoward medical occurrence that resulted in death, was life-threatening, required hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in disability or incapacity, was a congenital anomaly or birth defect in the offspring of a study participant, or was an abnormal pregnancy outcome.
Time frame: From start of treatment up to 30 days after last dose of study treatment, assessed up to approximately 7 months
Percentage of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs)
An Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) was defined as an adverse event (AE) that, in the investigator's judgment, was causally suspected to be related to the study treatment.
Time frame: From start of treatment up to 30 days after last dose of study treatment, assessed up to approximately 7 months
