Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Signed informed consent
  • Available tissue for central laboratory evaluation of HER2 status

  • Life expectancy >6 months
  • Female, age >=18 years
  • ECOG performance status of 0, 1, or 2
  • Adequate bone marrow function as indicated by the following: *ANC >1500/uL, *Platelet count >=100,000/uL
  • Adequate renal function, as indicated by creatinine <=1.5× upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Adequate liver function, as indicated by bilirubin <=1.5× ULN and AST or ALT <2× ULN unless related to primary disease
  • Use of an adequate means of birth control (women of childbearing potential)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Initiation of Herceptin >=4 weeks after beginning taxane chemotherapy
  • Prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease
  • Prior cumulative anthracycline dose of >360 mg/m2
  • History of significant cardiac disease or uncontrolled arrhythmias
  • Ejection fraction of <50% or below the lower limit of normal
  • Active infection
  • Symptomatic or untreated brain metastases
  • Pregnancy or lactation
  • Concomitant malignancies or previous malignancies within the last 5 years, with the exception of adequately treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ of the cervix
  • Symptomatic intrinsic lung disease or extensive tumor involvement of the lungs, resulting in dyspnea at rest
  • Hypersensitivity to study medications
  • Major organ failure or systemic disease precluding the safe administration of study medications

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
