Study Description

Brief Summary:

This multicenter, randomized, double-blind study will estimate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ipatasertib combined with paclitaxel compared with placebo combined with paclitaxel in participants with inoperable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC), as measured by progression-free survival (PFS) in all participants and in participants with phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)-low tumors.

Arms and Interventions

Arm	Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Ipatasertib + Paclitaxel Participants will receive ipatasertib and paclitaxel in cycles of 28 days (4 weeks) each and study treatment will continue until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, elective withdrawal from the study, or study completion or termination.	Drug: Ipatasertib Participants will receive ipatasertib orally 400 milligrams (mg) daily on Days 1-21 of each 28-day cycle. Other Name: GDC-0068 Drug: Paclitaxel Participants will receive paclitaxel 80 milligrams per square meter (mg/m^2) intravenously (IV) on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle.
Placebo Comparator: Placebo + Paclitaxel Participants will receive placebo and paclitaxel in cycles of 28 days (4 weeks) each and study treatment will continue until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, elective withdrawal from the study, or study completion or termination.	Drug: Paclitaxel Participants will receive paclitaxel 80 milligrams per square meter (mg/m^2) intravenously (IV) on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle. Drug: Placebo Participants will receive oral placebo matched to ipatasertib, daily on Days 1-21 of each 28-day cycle.
