Lapatnib?? what is it?

Hi everyone,

I didn't recieve herceptin as I was diagnosed in 03 at stage 2a. It's been 3 years now. I was on tamoxifen for 2.2 years and just recently stopped because of side effects. Saw my oncologist 2 weeks ago and she didn't mention Lapatnib. I did ask her if I could still take herceptin and she said no so I'm surprised she didn't mention anything else that's out there.
So my question is, what is Lapatnib? can you take it 3 years out? Is it like herceptin? what has your onc told you about it?

cheers to everyone
Cindy
