June 2009 clinical trials update
Written by

BKM120 Phase 1: A new Novartis PI3K inhibitor, BMK120, is now recruiting at Sarah Cannon in Nashville, Tenn. As with most Phase 1 trials, this trial is for “Solid Tumors” which should include GIST. BMK120 inhibits PI3K but unlike the other Novartis PI3K inhibitors, BEZ235 and BGT226, it does not also inhibit mTOR.
