Excessive amounts of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) cause a special clinical syndrome characterized by secretory diarrhea, hypokalemia and dehydration. A careful clinical workup of a 62-year-old female admitted for refractory diarrhea revealed a neglected inflammatory right breast ductal
OBJECTIVE
EGF103009 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00105950) was a phase 2, open-label, multicenter study that showed lapatinib monotherapy to be clinically active in women with relapsed or refractory HER2+ (ErbB2+) inflammatory breast cancer that progressed following prior therapy with
We evaluated the efficacy and safety of the epirubicin plus docetaxel(ET)regimen, which is a combination of active agents given to patients with inflammatory breast cancer(IBC)as a primary therapy. Nineteen patients received ET(60, 60mg/m2) every 3 weeks for 4 courses, and appropriate surgery was
OBJECTIVE
We conducted a phase II, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of daily lapatinib plus weekly paclitaxel in treatment-naïve patients with inflammatory breast cancer (IBC).
METHODS
The primary end point was pathologic complete response (pCR).
This multi-center Phase II study evaluated lapatinib, pazopanib, and the combination in patients with relapsed HER2+ inflammatory breast cancer. In Cohort 1, 76 patients were randomized 1:1 to receive lapatinib 1,500 mg + placebo or lapatinib 1,500 mg + pazopanib 800 mg (double-blind) once daily
BACKGROUND
Pathologic complete response (pCR) after preoperative systemic chemotherapy (PSCh) is associated with better outcome in locally advanced breast cancer (LABC).
METHODS
PSCh included: doxorubicin (A) 50 mg/m(2) i.v. on day 1; docetaxel (T) 30 mg/m(2) i.v. on days 1, 8 and 15; and
OBJECTIVE
Given the promising activity of capecitabine and vinorelbine in metastatic breast cancer, this randomized phase II trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of this combination as neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer.
METHODS
Patients with operable breast cancer (n=75) were randomly
OBJECTIVE
This study (EGF10004) assessed the safety/tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and clinical activity of daily oral dosing with lapatinib (GW572016) in patients with ErbB1-expressing and/or ErbB2-overexpressing advanced-stage refractory solid tumors.
METHODS
Heavily pretreated patients with
Lapatinib is an oral receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, inhibiting both the ErbB-1 and ErbB-2 receptors. Lapatinib has been shown to have activity in ErbB-2-overexpressing breast cancer in several phase II and III clinical trials. Specifically, lapatinib is effective in patients with metastatic
BACKGROUND
Lapatinib, the first dual inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) tyrosine kinases, was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2007. It is indicated for use in combination with capecitabine for the
BACKGROUND
Pertuzumab (P) combined with trastuzumab (H)-based chemotherapy improves efficacy in early and advanced HER2-positive breast cancer. We assessed the tolerability, with particular focus on cardiac safety, of H and P with chemotherapy in the neoadjuvant treatment of HER2-positive early
