BACKGROUND: The Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors may be used in cancer progression and mortality along with standard therapy to improve therapeutic efficacy of Advanced Breast Cancer (ABC). PURPOSE: This systematic review and meta- analysis were conducted to understand the therapeutic and toxicity profile of PI3K inhibitors in ABC. METHODS: The electronic databases were searched for suitable trials as per the criteria. The outcomes assessed were Progression- Free Survival, Objective Response Rate and Disease Control Rate. The data were systematically reviewed and meta-analyzed by Mantele- Haenszel method. RESULTS: Seven studies were included in the systematic review and meta- analysis. The co- administration of PI3K inhibitors with standard therapy improved the Progression- Free Survival significantly, while a marginal improvement was observed in Objective Response Rate, no difference in Disease Control Rate and toxicity significantly increased. CONCLUSIONS: The addition of PI3K inhibitors decreased the risk of progression but increased the risk of toxicity.
