Exposed to < 2 lines of trastuzumab-based regimen in the metastatic setting prior to start of lapatinib-based regimen. These regimens should contain trastuzumab as the only anti-HER2 agent.
Patients with an historical tumor biopsy specimen available from their primary breast cancer diagnosis. If this is not available, then at least a specimen should be available anytime during the period before the patient started on any anti-HER2 therapy.

If consent could be waived according to institutional practice (eg. patient already deceased, or patient previously provided blanket consent for institution to utilize tissue/data for research purpose), this is accepted with appropriate supporting documentation.
