Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Change From Start of Run-in Period in Biomarker Expression Levels at Day 0	Participants were analyzed for intratumoral expression levels of genes involved in the 5-fluorouracil (FU) pathway and lapatinib-targeted genes. Change in biomarker expression levels was calculated as the levels measured after the lapatinib Run-in Period (Baseline) of the study minus the levels measured at the start of monotherapy (Day -7). EGFR, epidermal growth factor receptor; HER, human epidermal growth factor receptor. Data are presented as ratios of the normalized gene expression of the target gene to that of beta actin.	evaluated at baseline and after 7 days of study treatment
Response Rate (Measured as the Percentage of Participants With Response [Complete Response or Partial Response])	Response is defined as documented evidence of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). The investigator evaluated response based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. Complete response is defined as the disappearance of all target lesions (TLs) and non-TLs and the appearance of no new lesions (NLs). Partial response for TLs is defined as >= a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of TLs, taking as a reference the Baseline sum LD. For non-TLs it is defined as the persistence of 1 or more non-TL and no new TLs or non-TLs.	From Baseline (Day 0) until disease progression or death due to any cause evaluated every 6 or 12 weeks (up to approximately 85 weeks)
Percentage of Participants (Par.) With 5-month Progression-free Survival (PFS)	5-month (mo.) PFS was defined as the percentage of par. who were alive/progression free for 5 months from the time of initial treatment. PFS is defined as the time from the initial treatment until the first observation of disease progression (DP)/death due to any cause; the percentage of par. whose follow-up ended or was ongoing was reported. DP is defined as symptomatic progression or the appearance of >=1 NL and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-TLs, and a >=20% increase in the sum of the LD of TLs, taking as a reference the smallest sum LD recorded since treatment started.	From initial treatment up to 24 weeks (next available assessment after the 5-month assessment for progressive disease)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
PFS	PFS is defined as the time from the initial treatment until the first observation of disease progression or death due to any cause. The date of documented disease progression was defined as the earliest date of radiographic disease assessment progression or symptomatic progression, whichever came first. For participants who did not die/progress, survival was censored at the time of the last assessment (or contact).	From Baseline (Day 0) until disease progression or death due to any cause (up to approximately 85 weeks)
Overall Survival (OS)	Overall survival is defined as the time from the initial treatment until death due to any cause. A death occurring during the study is defined as a death occurring during treatment or within 30 days of the last administration of study medication.	From Baseline (Day 0) until death due to any cause evaluated at approximately 12 months (up to approximately 100 weeks)
Time to Progression (All Deaths Are Treated as Competing Risk)	Time to progression is defined as the time from the initial treatment (first dose) until the first documented radiological symptomatic sign of disease progression. Time to progression data are presented as cumulative incidence estimate, which is defined as the time from the initial treatment until crude hazard probability of the occurrence of a particular event is reached to a particular point. All factors that hinder the observation of the event are defined as competing risks.	From Baseline (Day 0) until disease progression or death due to any cause (up to approximately 85 weeks)
Time to Progression (All Deaths Due to Non-PD Are Treated as Competing Risk)	Time to progression is defined as the time from the initial treatment (first dose) until the first documented radiological symptomatic sign of disease progression. Time to progression data are presented as cumulative incidence estimate, which is defined as the time from the initial treatment until crude hazard probability of occurrence of a particular event is reached to a particular point. All factors that hinder the observation of the event are defined as competing risks.	From Baseline (Day 0) until disease progression or death due to any cause (up to approximately 85 weeks)
Time to Response	Time to response is defined as the time from the initial treatment until the first documented evidence of CR (disappearance of all TLs and non-TLs and the appearance of no new lesions) or PR (>= a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of TLs, taking as reference the Baseline sum longest diameter) (whichever status was recorded first). Time to response data are presented as cumulative incidence estimate, which is defined as the time from the initial treatment until crude hazard probability of the occurrence of a particular event is reached to a particular point.	Baseline (Day 0) until first documented evidence of response (up to approximately 60 weeks)
Duration of Response	Duration of response is defined as the time from the first documented evidence of tumor response (CR or PR) until the first documented sign of disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever came first.	From date of first documented evidence of response until the date of first documented sign of disease progression or death due to any cause (up to approximately 78 weeks)
Number of Participants in the Indicated Categories for Best Overall Response (BOR)	Best overall response was evaluated by the investigator based on RECIST criteria: CR; PR; Stable Disease (SD), defined as no sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR, no sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD), taking as reference the smallest sum LD since the treatment started; PD, defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as a reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of >= 1 new lesions; Unknown, defined as participants who do not have CR, PR, SD, or PD.
