denotes |
Patients with HER2-positive BC require targeted therapy. |
T5 |
290-490 |
Sentence |
denotes |

T6 |
491-677 |
Sentence |
denotes |

Sentence |
denotes |
PATIENTS AND METHODS: |
T8 |
700-982 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Treatment-naive, HER2-positive BC patients with stage IIIA, B, C or inflammatory disease were randomized 1:1:1 to daily afatinib (50 mg), lapatinib (1500 mg), or weekly trastuzumab (4 mg/kg loading dose, then 2 mg/kg/wk) for 6 weeks until surgery or follow-up neoadjuvant treatment. |
T9 |
983-1105 |
Sentence |
denotes |

denotes |
RESULTS: |
T11 |
1115-1274 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Recruitment was stopped early because of slow patient enrollment; 29 patients were randomized to afatinib (n = 10), lapatinib (n = 8), or trastuzumab (n = 11). |
T12 |
1275-1368 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Objective response was seen in 8 afatinib-, 6 lapatinib-, and 4 trastuzumab-treated patients. |
T13 |
1369-1492 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Eleven patients had stable disease (best response); 1 lapatinib- and 1 trastuzumab-treated patient had progressive disease. |
T14 |
1493-1736 |
Sentence |
denotes |
All 10 afatinib-treated patients experienced drug-related adverse events (commonly diarrhea, dermatitis acneiform, and paronychia) versus 6 of 8 lapatinib- (diarrhea and rash) and 5 of 11 trastuzumab-treated patients (vomiting and arthralgia). |
T15 |
1737-1748 |
Sentence |
denotes |
CONCLUSION: |
T16 |
1749-1987 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Afatinib demonstrated clinical activity that compared favorably to trastuzumab and lapatinib for neoadjuvant treatment of HER2-positive BC, with a safety profile consistent with epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors. |
