Additional remarks Van de naar schatting 1.700 patiënten in 1e lijn, krijgt naar verwachting 70% (=1.190 patiënten) een behandeling in 2e lijn. Circa 30% hiervan heeft een PIK3CA mutatie en komt daarmee theoretisch in aanmerking voor alpelisib. Het verwachte patiëntenvolume ligt maximaal rond de 300. De vraag is wel of alle patiënten getest gaan worden voor deze mutatie en of ze in dat geval niet met een CDK4/6 remmer behandeld zullen worden. Om deze reden zal het uiteindelijke patiëntenaantal waarschijnlijk lager liggen dan 300.
