APRiCOT-B: Study to Evaluate Apricoxib in Combination With Lapatinib and Capecitabine in the Treatment of HER2/Neu+ Breast Cancer (TP2001-202) (APRiCOT-B)

March 13, 2012 updated by: Tragara Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

A Phase 2 Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Apricoxib in Combination With Lapatinib and Capecitabine in the Treatment of Patients With HER2/Neu+ Breast Cancer Who Have Failed Trastuzumab and Chemotherapy Including a Taxane

This study will compare the anti-tumor efficacy of apricoxib and lapatinib/capecitabine with placebo and lapatinib/capecitabine as measured by time to disease progression and evaluate urinary PGE-M measurements or baseline COX-2 expression in tumor tissue by IHC as a surrogate selection criterion for patients who will benefit from future treatment with apricoxib.
