Lapatinib sensitivity in nasopharyngeal carcinoma is modulated by SIRT2-mediated FOXO3 deacetylation [PDF]
Background Chemoresistance is an obstacle to the successful treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Lapatinib is a targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapeutic drug also used to treat NPC, but high doses are often required to achieve a result.

Structural investigations on mechanism of lapatinib resistance caused by HER-2 mutants.
HER-2 belongs to the human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER) family. Via different signal transduction pathways, HER-2 regulates normal cell proliferation, survival, and differentiation.

The human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER) family of growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) plays an important role in the biology of many cancers. In breast cancer, HER2 and its homo- or heterodimerization with HER1 or HER3 are essential for cancer cell growth and survival. Patients overexpressing HER2 have a poor prognosis, which can be

Combining lapatinib and pertuzumab to overcome lapatinib resistance due to NRG1-mediated signalling in HER2-amplified breast cancer [PDF]
Acquired resistance to lapatinib, an inhibitor of EGFR and HER2 kinases, is common. We found that reactivation of EGFR, HER2 and HER3 occurred within 24 hours of lapatinib treatment after their initial dephosphorylation.

Investigating the Effect of Lapatinib on the Performance of Sonodynamic Therapy Against Prostate Cancer via Inhibition of the ABCG2 Efflux System [PDF]
ABSTRACT Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is an emerging site specific and minimally‐invasive modality for cancer treatment. Its efficacy heavily relies on the accumulation and retention of systemically‐administered sensitizing agents within tumor cells.

The involvement of hepatic cytochrome P450s in the cytotoxicity of lapatinib [PDF]
Lapatinib, an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor used as a first-line treatment for HER2-positive breast cancer, has been reported to be associated with hepatotoxicity; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Dermatological Adverse Events Associated With Lapatinib Treatment in Dogs With Urothelial Carcinoma: A Retrospective Study. [PDF]
Lapatinib is widely used in human oncology; however, dermatological adverse events (DAEs) are common and have been correlated with treatment efficacy. In veterinary medicine, lapatinib use in combination with piroxicam has been shown to be effective in treating canine urothelial carcinoma (UC); however, the incidence and prognostic significance of DAEs

Lapatinib in the Treatment of Hormone Receptor-Positive/ErbB2-Positive Breast Cancer [PDF]
In women with estrogen receptor(ER)- and ErbB2(HER2)-positive breast cancer, a vicious cycle is established between ER mechanisms of action and the growth factor receptor network, leading to enhanced cell proliferation and endocrine resistance.
