Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, AZD9833, to see if it can shrink tumors in women with a certain type of advanced breast cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women with advanced breast cancer that's ER positive and HER2 negative. They must be over 18, have had no more than two chemo treatments for advanced disease, and not be on certain drugs or have specific health issues like uncontrolled hypertension or severe systemic diseases. Participants need to agree to contraception if of childbearing potential.
What is being tested?
The study tests AZD9833 alone or combined with other drugs (capivasertib, abemaciclib, ribociclib, anastrozole, palbociclib, everolimus) in different groups to find the best treatment for this type of breast cancer. It's a Phase 1 trial focusing on dosage safety and effectiveness.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to hormone changes due to estrogen receptor targeting by AZD9833 and its combinations. Other risks could involve common drug-related side effects such as fatigue, nausea, risk of infection from low blood counts but specifics will depend on each drug combination.
