Brief Summary
This 4 arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of 4 neoadjuvant treatment regimens in female patients with locally advanced, inflammatory or early stage HER2 positive breast cancer. Before surgery, patients will be randomized to one of 4 treatment arms, to receive 4 cycles of a)Herceptin + docetaxel b)Herceptin + docetaxel + pertuzumab c)Herceptin + pertuzumab or 4)pertuzumab + docetaxel. Pertuzumab will be administered at a loading dose of 840mg iv, then 420mg iv 3-weekly, Herceptin at a loading dose of 8mg/kg iv then 6mg/kg 3-weekly, and docetaxel at a dose of 75mg/m2 escalating to 100mg/m2 3-weekly. During the entire pre- and post-surgery period all patients will receive adequate chemotherapy as per standard of care, as well as any surgery and/or radiotherapy as required. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (5)
Percentage of Participants Achieving Pathological Complete Response (pCR)
pCR was defined as an absence of invasive neoplastic cells at microscopic examination of the tumor remnants after surgery following primary systemic therapy. Participants with invalid/missing pCR assessments were defined as non-responders
Approximately 4 months from randomization following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 2 weeks after Cycle 4)
Percentage of Participants Achieving pCR by Breast Cancer Type
pCR was defined as an absence of invasive neoplastic cells at microscopic examination of the tumor remnants after surgery following primary systemic therapy. Based on the type of breast cancer participants were categorized as those with 1. Operable breast cancer, 2. Inflammatory breast cancer and 3. Locally advanced breast cancer. Participants with invalid/missing pCR assessments were defined as non-responders.
Approximately 4 months from randomization following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 2 weeks after Cycle 4)
Percentage of Participants Achieving pCR by Hormone Receptor Status
pCR was defined as an absence of invasive neoplastic cells at microscopic examination of the tumor remnants after surgery following primary systemic therapy. Participants were classified as Estrogen and/or Progesterone positive (+ve), Estrogen and/or Progesterone negative (-ve) or receptor status unknown. Participants with invalid/missing pCR assessments were defined as non-responders.
Approximately 4 months from randomization following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 2 weeks after Cycle 4)
Percentage of Participants Achieving pCR by Lymph Node Status
pCR was defined as an absence of invasive neoplastic cells at microscopic examination of the tumor remnants after surgery following primary systemic therapy. Lymph node status was defined as either negative lymph node at surgery or positive lymph node at surgery. Participants with invalid/missing pCR assessments were defined as non-responders.
Approximately 4 months from randomization following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 2 weeks after Cycle 4)
Percentage of Participants Achieving pCR by Presence or Absence of Residual Intraductal Carcinoma (DCIS) / Intalobular Carcinoma (LCIS)
pCR was defined as an absence of invasive neoplastic cells at microscopic examination of the tumor remnants after surgery following primary systemic therapy. Participants with invalid/missing pCR assessments were defined as non-responders.
Approximately 4 months from randomization following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 2 weeks after Cycle 4)
