Lapatinib Increases Overall Survival in Metastatic Breast Cancer Patients With HER2-Positive Circulating Tumor Cells
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- A new study shows that lapatinib, a drug used for the treatment of metastatic HER2-positive cancer, is associated with improved overall survival in patients with initially HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer and HER2-positive circulating tumor cells (CTCs). This groundbreaking finding was published today in a special issue of the Association for Diagnostics & Laboratory Medicine's (formerly AACC's) Clinical Chemistry journal titled "Cancer: Biology & Diagnostics."
