6 Weeks Treatment of Locally Advanced Breast Cancer With BIBW 2992 or Lapatinib or Trastuzumab
An open-label, randomized three-arm Phase II trial to explore the efficacy of BIBW 2992 as a single agent versus lapatinib versus trastuzumab in patients with HER2-positive treatment-naïv...
The primary objective of this trial is to explore the efficacy of BIBW 2992 in HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer patients after failure of trastuzumab containing regimens.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the optimum dose of the following medications when they are given together: - BIBW 2992 and paclitaxel (Taxol) - BIBW 2992 and p...

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Trastuzumab
A humanized monoclonal antibody against the ERBB-2 RECEPTOR (HER2). As an ANTINEOPLASTIC AGENT, it is used to treat BREAST CANCER where HER2 is overexpressed.
Triple Negative Breast Neoplasms
Breast neoplasms that do not express ESTROGEN RECEPTORS; PROGESTERONE RECEPTORS; and do not overexpress the NEU RECEPTOR/HER-2 PROTO-ONCOGENE PROTEIN.
Breast Neoplasms, Male
Any neoplasms of the male breast. These occur infrequently in males in developed countries, the incidence being about 1% of that in females.
Neoplasms, Ductal, Lobular, And Medullary
Neoplasms, usually carcinoma, located within the center of an organ or within small lobes, and in the case of the breast, intraductally. The emphasis of the name is on the location of the neoplastic tissue rather than on its histological type. Most cancers of this type are located in the breast.
Inflammatory Breast Neoplasms
Metastatic breast cancer characterized by EDEMA and ERYTHEMA of the affected breast due to LYMPHATIC METASTASIS and eventual obstruction of LYMPHATIC VESSELS by the cancer cells.
