This phase II trial is trying to find out if treatment with a targeted cancer therapy (alpelisib) and a chemotherapy (fulvestrant) increases survival compared to a chemotherapy (capecitabine) alone in men and women with ER+, HER2- breast cancer with a PIKC3A mutation.
This trial is treating patients with ER+, HER2- breast cancer.
This is a systemic therapy trial.

- You have had treatment but your cancer has gotten worse or has not responded to the treatment you have been given.
