Brief summary
The study will be conducted as a multicenter prospective observational cohort study, trying to cover almost all Brazilian States, in a population of ErbB2 positive metastatic breast cancer patients, whose disease has progressed after trastuzumab-containing regimen, comparing outcomes in two groups: Group 1: patients receiving Lapatinib-capecitabine immediately after 1st Trastuzumab progression (second line treatment), and Group 2: patients receiving Lapatinib-capecitabine after 2 or more lines of treatment after 1st trastuzumab progression (third line or greater).
Detailed description
All cases of ErbB2 positive metastatic breast cancer, receiving approved standard treatment with lapatinib-capecitabine, after trastuzumab-containing regimen progression in community setting can participate in this observational study, for a period of 12 months of observation since the start of the lapatinib-capecitabine treatment.
