Brief summary
A study to compare the safety and efficacy of an aromatase inhibitor in combination with lapatinib, trastuzumab or both for the treatment of hormone receptor positive, HER2+ metastatic breast cancer (MBC).
Detailed description
This Phase III, multicenter, open-label study randomized subjects to one of the three treatment arms: 1. Treatment group A: lapatinib 1000 mg PO once daily + trastuzumab (loading dose of 8 mg/kg) followed by the maintenance dose of 6 mg/kg IV q3weeks + an AI (either letrozole, anastrozole, or exemestane) of Investigator's choice PO once daily. 2. Treatment group B: trastuzumab (loading dose of 8 mg/kg) followed by maintenance dose of 6 mg/kg IV q3weeks + an AI (either letrozole, anastrozole, or exemestane) of Investigator's choice PO once daily. 3. Treatment group C: lapatinib 1500 mg PO once daily + an AI (either letrozole, anastrozole, or exemestane) of Investigator's choice PO once daily. Treatment continued until disease progression, death, or unacceptable toxicities, whichever came first. Subjects who discontinued study treatment for reasons other than disease progression were followed-up every 12 weeks until disease progression or death, until the start of post-study treatment anti-cancer therapy (including radiotherapy and surgery), withdrawal of consent, or lost to follow-up, whichever came first.
Interventions
1000 mg by mouth once a day
Loading dose of 8 mg/kg IV followed by the maintenance dose of 6 mg/kg IV every 3 weeks (q3weeks)
Aromatase inhibitor (either letrozole, anastrozole, or exemestane) of investigator's choice given by mouth once daily

Time to Response
Time to Response (TTR) was defined as the time from randomization to the earliest date of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR)
Time frame: From date of randomization until the earliest date of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR), assessed up approximately 11 years
Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population. Only participants achieving either a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR)
| Arm | Measure | Value (MEDIAN) |
|---|---|---|
| Lapatinib + Trastuzumab + Aromatase Inhibitor (AI) | Time to Response | 85.0 Days |
| Trastuzumab + Aromatase Inhibitor (AI) | Time to Response | 86.5 Days |
| Trastuzumab + Aromatase Inhibitor (AI) | Time to Response | 86.0 Days |
All Collected Deaths
Pre-treatment deaths were collected from day of participant's informed consent to the day before first dose of study medication. On-treatment deaths were collected from first dose of study medication to 30 days after last dose of study medication (on-treatment), up to approximately 131 months. Deaths were collected in the post treatment survival follow up from 31 days after last dose of study medication until the end of the study, up to approximately 132 months.
Time frame: Pre-treatment deaths: Up to 28 days prior to treatment. On-treatment deaths: Up to 131 months. Post-treatment deaths: up to 132 months.
Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population.
