Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With Pathological Complete Response (pCR) in Breast and Axilla as Defined by ypT0/Tis ypN0 in the American Joint Committee on Cancer Staging System (in All Participants)Surgery visit (at approximately Weeks 14 to 19)

pCR was defined by ypT0/Tis ypN0 in the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) Staging System with the following determination for breast and axilla by local pathology laboratory evaluation: T0: no evidence of primary tumor; Tis: early cancer that has not spread to neighboring tissue and N0: no cancer found in the lymph nodes.

Percentage of Participants With pCR in Breast and Axilla as Defined by ypT0/Tis ypN0 in the American Joint Committee on Cancer Staging System (in Participants Who Have Phosphatase and Tensin Homolog [PTEN]-Low Tumors)Surgery visit (at approximately Weeks 14 to 19)

pCR was defined by ypT0/Tis ypN0 in the AJCC Staging System with the following determination for breast and axilla by local pathology laboratory evaluation: T0: no evidence of primary tumor; Tis: early cancer that has not spread to neighboring tissue and N0: no cancer found in the lymph nodes.

Percentage of Participants With Objective Tumor Response by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), As Assessed by Investigator Per the Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) (in All Participants)Screening up to disease progression or death (assessed at screening, pre-surgical visit [approximately Weeks 10-12], early termination visit [up to Week 16])

Objective tumor response (OR) was based on criteria related to changes in size of target lesions according to modified RECIST. Target lesions were selected on the basis of their size (lesions with the longest diameter) as well as the feasibility of reproducible repeated measurements. OR was the sum of complete response (CR) and partial response (PR). CR: disappearance of all target lesions. PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters.

Percentage of Participants With pCR According to American Joint Committee on Cancer Staging System, by Breast Cancer SubtypeSurgery visit (at approximately Weeks 14 to 19)

pCR was defined by ypT0/Tis in the AJCC Staging System with the following determination for breast subtypes by local pathology laboratory evaluation: T0: no evidence of primary tumor; Tis: early cancer that has not spread to neighboring tissue. The intrinsic molecular subtypes of breast cancer included here are luminal A (LumA), Her-2, basal-like, normal and unknown.

Percentage of Participants With Response to Undergoing Breast Conserving Surgery (BCS) Among Participants With T2 or T3 TumorsSurgery visit (at approximately Weeks 14 to 19)

After neoadjuvant treatment, the number of patients who is appropriate for breast conserving surgery is reported as a measure of efficacy of the treatment to shrink the tumor enough for patients to benefit from less aggressive surgical management. Breast-conserving surgery was defined as removal of part of the breast tissue during surgery. T2 or T3 in the AJCC Staging System were defined as follows: T2: tumor was more than 2 centimeter (cm) but no more than 5 cm across; T3: tumor was larger than 5 cm across.

Percentage of Participants With Adverse EventsScreening up to Week 24

An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events.

Plasma Concentrations of Ipatasertib on Day 1 and Day 80.5 and 4 hours post dose on Day 1 of Cycle 1, 166 and 170 hours post dose from Day 1 of Cycle 1 (Cycle length = 28 days)

Plasma samples for pharmacokinetic characterization was collected at various timepoints in all participants.
