PHASE2
Brief Summary
Lapatinib ditosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. This phase II trial is studying how well lapatinib ditosylate works in treating patients...
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the objective response rate (complete response \[CR\] + partial response \[PR\]) as defined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria in...
