摘要: The dual small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor lapatinib blocks both human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER-1) and 2 (HER-2) activity by binding reversibly to the ATP-binding site of receptor's intracellular domain. Lapatinib, in combination with capecitabine, has been approved 2007 for treatment patients advanced HER-2+ breast cancer upon progressive disease following standard chemotherapy. Approval was also extended postmenopausal women hormone (HR)-positive HER-2-positive 2010. More recently, clinical trials that have investigated efficacy HER-2 blockade metastatic neoadjuvant settings. For example, 2013 European Medicines Agency trastuzumab HER-2+/HR- patients. We review results from studies present new post hoc analysis data according HR status. show appears provide a greater magnitude benefit HR- versus HR+ subgroup Finally, we examine potential molecularly subtyping tumors using PAM50 test as predictor response lapatinib.
