Trial overview
Official title: A Randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, multicentre, phase II study of oral lapatinib in combination with concurrent radiotherapy and cisplatin versus radiotherapy and cisplatin alone, in subjects with stage III, IVA, B squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN)
Trial description: This is a phase II study comparing the effects of lapatinib versus placebo when administered concurrently with cisplatin and radiotherapy followed by 1 year monotherapy with lapatinib or placebo.
