Study arms

  • Experimental
    Subjects with cancer

    In Part 1 of the study, subjects will be randomized to one of four sequences. All subjects will receive oral or intravenous (IV) midazolam on Days 1, 3, 9 and 11 as per assigned randomization scheme. Starting on Day 4 through Day 11, subjects will receive a daily dose of 1500 milligrams (mg) of oral lapatinib. In Part 2, which will begin on Day 12, the subjects will be required to take 1500 mg of lapatinib daily until removed from the study for disease progression, adverse events, withdrawal of consent, or transfer to another lapatinib study.

    Drug: Midazolam · Drug: Lapatinib

Interventions

  • DrugMidazolam

    Subjects will receive midazolam by oral or IV route on Days 1, 3, 9 and 11. Oral midazolam was supplied as 3 mg tablets; IV midazolam was supplied as 1 milligram per milliliter (mg/L) sterile solution.

    Also known as: GW572016 oral tablets

  • DrugLapatinib

    Subjects will receive 1500 mg lapatinib by oral route once daily from Day 4.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Area under the concentration versus time curve (AUC) of midazolam

    Blood samples will be collected at indicated time points for the determination of midazolam concentration. AUC of midazolam in the presence and absence of lapatinib will be determined.

    Time frame: Pre-dose, 2 minutes, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1, Day 3, Day 9 and Day 11

  2. Maximum observed concentration (Cmax) of midazolam

    Blood samples will be collected at indicated time points for the determination of midazolam concentration. Cmax of midazolam in the presence and absence of lapatinib will be determined.

    Time frame: Pre-dose, 2 minutes, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1, Day 3, Day 9 and Day 11

  3. Clearance (CL) of midazolam

    Blood samples will be collected at indicated time points for the determination of midazolam concentration. CL of midazolam in the presence and absence of lapatinib will be determined.

    Time frame: Pre-dose, 2 minutes, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 24 hours post-dose on Day 1, Day 3, Day 9 and Day 11

  4. Half-life (t½) of midazolam

    Blood samples will be collected at indicated time points for the determination of midazolam concentration. t1/2 of midazolam in the presence and absence of lapatinib will be determined.

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death; is life-threatening; requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in disability/incapacity; is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; important medical events may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed above.

    Time frame: Up to Month 7

  4. Number of subjects with abnormal clinical chemistry parameters

    The following clinical chemistry parameters were evaluated: sodium, potassium, total carbon dioxide (CO2), calcium, total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN).
