Purpose: Lapatinib and capecitabine cross the blood-tumor barrier in breast cancer brain metastasis but have modest clinical efficacy. Administration of high-dose tyrosine kinase inhibitor has been evaluated in brain metastases and primary brain tumors as a strategy to improve drug exposure in the central nervous system (CNS). We derived a rational drug scheduling of intermittent high-dose lapatinib alternating with capecitabine based on our preclinical data and Norton-Simon mathematical modeling. We tested this intermittent, sequential drug schedule in patients with breast cancer with CNS metastasis. Patients and Methods: We conducted a phase I trial using an accelerated dose escalation design in patients with HER2-positive (HER2(+)) breast cancer with CNS metastasis. Lapatinib was given on day 1-3 and day 15-17 with capecitabine on day 8-14 and day 22-28 on an every 28-day cycle. Lapatinib dose was escalated, and capecitabine given as a flat dose at 1,500 mg BID. Toxicity and efficacy were evaluated. Results: Eleven patients were enrolled: brain only (4 patients, 36%), leptomeningeal (5 patients, 45%), and intramedullary spinal cord (2 patients, 18%). Grade 3 nausea and vomiting were dose-limiting toxicities. The MTD of lapatinib was 1,500 mg BID. Three patients remained on therapy for greater than 6 months. Conclusions: High-dose lapatinib is tolerable when given intermittently and sequentially with capecitabine. Antitumor activity was noted in both CNS and non-CNS sites of disease. This novel administration regimen is feasible and efficacious in patients with HER2(+) breast cancer with CNS metastasis and warrants further investigation.
