Pharmacology
Palbociclib is an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) 4 and 6; it blocks progression of ER-positive breast cancer cells from G1 into S phase of the cell cycle, and in combination with antiestrogens decreases Rb protein phosphorylation, reduces E2F expression, and increases growth arrest.
Capivasertib is a pan-AKT inhibitor that blocks all three serine/threonine kinase AKT isoforms (AKT1, AKT2, AKT3), inhibiting phosphorylation of downstream AKT substrates and suppressing tumor growth driven by PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN pathway alterations.
