What is Truqap (capivasertib) used for?

Truqap (capivasertib) is a prescription medicine used in combination with fulvestrant to treat adult patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that is locally advanced or metastatic and carries one or more PIK3CA, AKT1, or PTEN gene alterations.

It is indicated for use in patients who have previously received at least one endocrine-based therapy in the metastatic setting, or in those whose cancer recurred within 12 months of completing adjuvant endocrine treatment.

How does Truqap (capivasertib) work?

Truqap is a targeted therapy that works by inhibiting the AKT protein, a key component in the signaling pathway that promotes cancer cell growth and survival—especially in HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancers with specific genetic alterations. By blocking AKT, capivasertib aims to slow or stop tumor progression.
