Official title

A Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter, Phase III Study Comparing the Activity of Paclitaxel Plus Trastuzumab Plus Lapatinib to Paclitaxel Plus Trastuzumab Plus Placebo in Women With ErbB2 Overexpressing Metastatic Breast Cancer

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

This study was originally designed as a Phase III randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study to assess the safety and tolerability, and efficacy of paclitaxel plus trastuzumab plus lapatinib compared with paclitaxel plus trastuzumab plus placebo in women with ErbB2 overexpressing metastatic breast cancer. The planned study was a two stage design with an initial open-label safety stage to be conducted in approximately 65 subjects followed by a randomized phase conducted in a further 700 subjects. The open-label part of the study sequentially enrolled three cohorts with patients receiving a different dose combination of paclitaxel, trastuzumab and lapatinib. Following poor recruitment rate in the open label stage, the randomized stage of the study was terminated, thus no subjects were enrolled into the randomization stage.
