About this study
Official title: A First-in-Human, Open-Label, Dose Escalation and Expansion Trial of BTX-9341 in Participants With Advanced and/or Metastatic Breast Cancer
The purpose of this study is to test BTX-9341 alone or in combination with fulvestrant (a currently marketed medication for breast cancer) in participants with advanced and/or metastatic hormone receptor positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer. The study includes a dose escalation part (Part A) where small groups of participants will receive increasing doses of BTX-9341 or BTX-9341 + fulvestrant followed by a dose expansion part (Part B) where participants will receive the dose of BTX-9341 selected in Part A + fulvestrant.
Read the detailed description
This first-in-human (FIH), Phase 1 study of BTX-9341 is multicenter, nonrandomized, and open-label to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and preliminary efficacy of BTX-9341 in participants with advanced and/or metastatic HR+/HER2 breast cancer. The study will include a dose escalation part (Part A) followed by a dose expansion part (Part B). During Part A, BTX-9341 will initially be dose escalated alone and then in combination with fulvestrant. A single combination therapy cohort of BTX-9341 + fulvestrant will be further explored in Part B. BTX-9341 will be administered orally in 28-day treatment cycles.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing BTX-9341 and Fulvestrant in people with Breast Cancer, run by Biotheryx, Inc. at 6 sites in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jun 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 6 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Danette Powell (858-354-1814, c-dpowell@biotheryx.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Safety and Tolerability of BTX-9341 (time frame: Up to 28 days after last dose of BTX-9341). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Jun 2025.
