Brief Summary
An open-label, randomized three-arm Phase II trial to explore the efficacy of BIBW 2992 as a single agent versus lapatinib versus trastuzumab in patients with HER2-positive treatment-naïve Stage IIIa locally advanced breast cancer. Additional information will be obtained on the safety profile and pharmacokinetics of BIBW 2992.

Limitations and Caveats
Because of slow enrollment and a high screen-failure rate, recruitment became a challenge and the sponsor chose to terminate the trial prior to reaching the target enrollment of 120 pat. Small number of subjects lead to some shortcomings in analyses.
