As you know lapatinib is a drug used primarily in the treatment of certain types of breast cancer. It works by targeting and blocking specific proteins that promote cancer cell growth. Here is more detailed information on its uses and mechanism:
Breast Cancer: Lapatinib 250 is commonly used to treat HER2-positive breast cancer, which is a type of breast cancer that overexpresses the HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) protein. HER2-positive cancers tend to grow more quickly and aggressively.
Combination Therapy: It is often used in combination with other medications, such as capecitabine or letrozole, to improve its effectiveness. For example:
With Capecitabine: It is used in combination with capecitabine (a chemotherapy drug) for advanced or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer.
With Letrozole: It can be used in combination with letrozole (an aromatase inhibitor) for HER2-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women
