Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Efficacy assessment
at 4 months

Benefit is defined as complete response, partial response, or stable disease according to RECIST criteria (vers. 1.1). Efficacy criteria is the number of patients meeting this definition. Patients having stopped before this 4-months time point will be considered as non responders without clinical benefit.

Tolerance criteria and impact on functional status
at 4 months

The criteria is the number of patients for whom a toxicity event (according to the NCI-CTC AE vers.4)and/or an impact on functional status (defined by the 8 items IADL assessment scale) has been observed during the first 4 months of treatment.

Clinical Benefit Response (Independent Reviewer-assessed)
Baseline, every 6 weeks until Week 24 and then every 12 weeks until disease progression (up to Week 119)

CBR is defined as the percentage of participants receiving at least one dose of study medication who achieved a best overall response classified as a complete or partial (confirmed) tumor response or stable disease for at least 6 months (24 weeks). A "complete response" is defined as the disappearance of all target or non-target lesions, "partial response" and "disease progression" as at least a 30% decrease and at least a 20% increase, respectively, in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, and "stable disease" as neither "partial response" nor "disease progression."

Frequently asked questions about lapatinib and temozolomide

What is Lapatinib used for?

Lapatinib is an investigational small molecule being studied for multiple oncology indications, including metastatic breast cancer, metastatic colorectal cancer, adenocarcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, and squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. It is being developed by GSK plc (GSK) and is currently in Phase 2 clinical development.

What does Lapatinib target?

Lapatinib is a small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets the HER2 and EGFR pathways. It is being evaluated in HER2-positive breast cancer, as seen in trials such as NCT00614978 for progressive brain disease in HER-2 positive breast cancer.
