Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood in the laboratory from patients with cancer may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the side effects of trastuzumab in treating women with metastatic breast cancer.
