Tyverb (lapatinib) is approved for use in combination with capecitabine for treatment of ErbB2-positive advanced or metastatic breast cancer in patients who have progressed on prior therapies including anthracyclines, taxanes, and trastuzumab. A pivotal study found that the combination of Tyverb and capecitabine significantly increased time to progression and overall response rate compared to capecitabine alone with manageable side effects. Quality of life was maintained with the combination therapy.
