| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint will be to determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD), dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), and recommended dose of lapatinib. DLTs will be documented during first and second cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy to allow dose escalation but determination of recommended dose will be documented with both DLT rules and based on 80% dose intensity (rule of 80% dose intensity will be applied during the whole treatment duration from the start of neoadjuvant chemotherapy to the end of concomitant chemoradiation).;Main Objective: The primary objective is to determine the maximal tolerated dose, and recommended dose for phase II of lapatinib when concomitantly administered with neoadjuvant chemotherapy with TPF ( Taxotere, Cisplatin, 5-FU) followed by chemoradiation with carboplatin.;Secondary Objective: | — |
