A Study of Pertuzumab in Participants With Metastatic Breast Cancer

Brief Summary
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of pertuzumab (rhuMAb 2C4) in participants with metastatic breast cancer which has progressed during or after standard chemotherapy and which is not amenable to curative therapy. Those who are maintaining a response to therapy or who have stable disease at the end of the formal study period will continue treatment until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Approximately 120 participants will be enrolled.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percentage of Participants Achieving a Best Overall Response of Confirmed Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR)
Objective tumor response was assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Confirmed CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions, and confirmed PR was defined as at least at 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions. Response was to be confirmed at follow-up assessment completed within 4 weeks of the first documented response. The percentage of participants achieving a best overall response of CR or PR was calculated as \[number of participants meeting the above criteria divided by the number analyzed\] multiplied by 100.
Up to approximately 1 year (at Baseline; every 6 weeks for the first 8 cycles, then every 12 weeks until progression or death; and up to 4 weeks after initial response)
Secondary Outcomes (19)
Time to Response Among Participants Achieving a Best Overall Response of Confirmed CR or PR
Up to approximately 1 year (at Baseline; every 6 weeks for the first 8 cycles, then every 12 weeks until progression or death; and up to 4 weeks after initial response)
Duration of Response Among Participants Achieving a Best Overall Response of Confirmed CR or PR
Up to approximately 1 year (at Baseline; every 6 weeks for the first 8 cycles, then every 12 weeks until progression or death; and up to 4 weeks after initial response)
Percentage of Participants Achieving a Best Overall Response of Confirmed CR
Up to approximately 1 year (at Baseline; every 6 weeks for the first 8 cycles, then every 12 weeks until progression or death; and up to 4 weeks after initial response)
Duration of Response Among Participants Achieving a Best Overall Response of Confirmed CR
Up to approximately 1 year (at Baseline; every 6 weeks for the first 8 cycles, then every 12 weeks until progression or death; and up to 4 weeks after initial response)
Number of Participants Who Experienced PD or Death
Up to approximately 1 year (at Baseline; every 6 weeks for the first 8 cycles, then every 12 weeks until progression or death; and up to 4 weeks after initial response)
- +14 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (2)
Pertuzumab 1050 mg
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will not receive a loading dose, but will receive pertuzumab 1050 milligrams (mg) via intravenous (IV) infusion every 3 weeks until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.
Pertuzumab 420 mg
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive a loading dose of 840 mg via IV infusion at the first infusion of pertuzumab, followed by a maintenance dose of 420 mg every 3 weeks until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.
Interventions
Participants will receive one of two IV treatment regimens with pertuzumab: either 420 mg every 3 weeks, with an initial 840-mg loading dose, or 1050 mg every 3 weeks with no loading dose administered.

Limitations and Caveats
Recruitment was halted within the planned study design. The study was designed to stop recruitment following the interim analysis if the response rate (CR or PR) was \<1 of 23 participants per arm after all participants completed at least 2 cycles.
