Study Summary

This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre, global Phase III trial comparing the efficacy of adjuvant oral lapatinib versus placebo in high-risk subjects with head and neck cancer following surgery. Lapatinib or placebo will be administered post-operatively in combination with chemoradiotherapy followed by maintenance with lapatinib or placebo for 1 year. The primary goal is to determine if lapatinib is effective at reducing the recurrence of the disease in these high-risk patients.

Primary Outcome

DFS is defined as the time from randomization until the earliest date of disease recurrence (evidence of local, regional, or distant disease progression, second primary tumor) or death due to any cause. Disease recurrence was based on the assessments from the blinded, independent reviewer (radiological and clinical). Participants who initiated alternative anti-cancer therapy prior to disease recurrence or death were treated as censored at the last assessment prior to the time of this initiation.

Interventions

  • OTHER Placebo
  • RADIATION Chemoradiation
