Abstract
Lapatinib is a small-molecule kinase inhibitor that targets the epidermal growth factor receptor and the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). In March 2007, lapatinib distosylate monohydrate (Tykerb; GlaxoSmithKline) was approved by the FDA for the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic breast cancer whose tumours overexpress HER2 and who have received prior therapy including an anthracycline, a taxane and trastuzumab.
