Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Perjeta (pertuzumab) in combination with Herceptin (trastuzumab) in participants with metastatic breast cancer who have progressed on trastuzumab-based therapy (Cohorts 1 and 2), and will make a preliminary assessment of the efficacy and safety of single-agent pertuzumab (Cohort 3). Objective response rate and clinical benefit will be assessed. Pertuzumab will be administered at an initial dose of 840 milligrams (mg) intravenously (IV) on Day 1, followed by 420 mg IV every 3 weeks. Trastuzumab will be administered at the same schedule the participant was following before entry into the study. An additional cohort of participants at certain centers will receive pertuzumab monotherapy at an initial dose of 840 mg IV on Day 1, followed by 420 mg IV every 3 weeks. These participants may have trastuzumab added to the regimen in the event of progression during single-agent pertuzumab treatment.

- description
- Females with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer will receive dual-agent treatment with pertuzumab and trastuzumab. Trastuzumab will be administered IV as 2 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) once weekly, or as 6 mg/kg every 3 weeks, beginning on Day 1 of Cycle 1. Pertuzumab will be administered IV at a loading dose of 840 mg followed by a standard dose of 420 mg every 3 weeks, beginning on Day 2 of Cycle 1. Thereafter, both medications will be administered on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle. Treatment will continue for a minimum of 8 cycles and may be extended until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or death.

- description
- Females with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer will receive single-agent treatment with pertuzumab. Pertuzumab will be administered IV at a loading dose of 840 mg followed by a standard dose of 420 mg every 3 weeks, administered on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle. Participants with documented disease progression may have trastuzumab added to the regimen, per the dosing schedule described for Cohorts 1 and 2, to receive dual-agent treatment until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or death.
