Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Time to Progression as Evaluated by the Investigator
Randomization until the date of disease progression or death (average of 26 weeks)

Time to progression (TTP) is defined as the interval between the date of randomization and the earliest date of progression of disease (PD) or death due to breast cancer. The investigator assessed PD based on radiological PD (imaging data) and clinical symptomatic progress (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors \[RECIST\] Criteria: target lesion (TL), at least a 20% increase in the sum of largest diameter (LD) of TLs or the appearance of one or more new lesions; non-TL (NTL), the appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing NTLs). TTP was assessed in participants who died due to breast cancer or progressed, as assessed by the investigator, as well as in those who were censored and completed follow-up and those who were censored but are still being followed. For censored participants (those without a documented date of disease progression/death due to breast cancer), the date of the last radiographic assessment was used.

Time to Progression as Evaluated by the Independent Review Committee (IRC)
Randomization until the date of disease progression or death (average of 26 weeks)

Time to progression is defined as the interval between the date of randomization and the earliest date of progression of disease (PD) or death due to breast cancer. The IRC assessed PD based on radiological PD (imaging data) and clinical symptomatic progress (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors \[RECIST\] Criteria: target lesion (TL), at least a 20% increase in the sum of largest diameter (LD) of TLs or the appearance of one or more new lesions; non-TL (NTL), the appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing NTLs). TTP was assessed in participants who died due to breast cancer or progressed, as assessed by the independent reviewer, as well as in those who were censored and completed follow-up and those who were censored but are still being followed. For censored participants (those without a documented date of disease progression/death due to breast cancer), the date of the last radiographic assessment was used.

Arm 2PLACEBO_COMPARATORPaclitaxel 175 mg/m Intravenously over 3 hours ever 3 weeks and Placebo
GW572016 in combination with trastuzumabEXPERIMENTALLapatinib: A specified dose of lapatinib will be orally taken once daily, at least one hour before or one hour after the morning meal. Lapatinib should be taken at the same time of day wherever possible. The starting dose of lapatinib should be 750 mg/day, which will be increased to 1000 mg/day (dose escalation group) according to the dose escalation criteria. Trastuzumab: Trastuzumab (4 mg/kg/day in the first week and 2 mg/kg/day for the 2nd and subsequent weeks) will be administered by intravenous infusion over at least 90 minutes immediately after administration of lapatinib. The fifth (Day 36) and subsequent doses may be administered up to 3 days after the scheduled date. In this case, however, the all following doses should be administered at one-week intervals.

Frequently asked questions about GW572016

What is GW572016 used for?

GW572016 is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of breast cancer, specifically in patients with neoplasms of the breast. It has been evaluated in clinical trials for conditions including refractory metastatic breast cancer and advanced or metastatic breast cancer. The drug is in Phase 3 development for these oncology indications.

What does GW572016 target?

GW572016 is a small molecule developed by GSK plc. While the specific molecular target is not disclosed in the available clinical trial information, it is being investigated as a potential treatment for breast cancer. The drug is being studied in combination with other therapies, including trastuzumab and paclitaxel, for the management of advanced or metastatic breast cancer.

Who makes GW572016?

GW572016 is being developed by GSK plc, a global pharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker symbol GSK. The company has sponsored multiple clinical trials evaluating this investigational drug for the treatment of breast cancer, including Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3 studies.

What phase is GW572016 in?

GW572016 is currently in Phase 3 clinical development for the treatment of breast cancer. The most advanced trial, NCT00075270, is a Phase 3 study evaluating paclitaxel with or without GW572016 as first-line therapy for women with advanced or metastatic breast cancer. This trial has been completed.

What clinical trials is GW572016 in?

GW572016 has been studied in four completed clinical trials. These include NCT00062686, a Phase 2 trial for refractory metastatic breast cancer; NCT00075270, a Phase 3 trial combining GW572016 with paclitaxel for advanced or metastatic breast cancer; NCT00169533, a Phase 1 rollover study; and NCT00371488, a Phase 1 trial combining GW572016 with trastuzumab.

Is GW572016 the same as lapatinib?

Yes, GW572016 is also known as lapatinib. In clinical trial NCT00075270, the drug is referred to as GW572016 (Lapatinib), confirming that these names refer to the same investigational agent. This small molecule is being developed by GSK plc for the treatment of breast cancer.
