December 16, 2020 updated by: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

A Phase Ib, Open-label, Two Arm Study of i.v. and Oral Panobinostat (LBH589) in Combination With i.v. Trastuzumab (Herceptin®) and i.v. Paclitaxel as Treatment for Adult Female Patients With HER2 Overexpressing Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC)

The primary purpose of this study is to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of both intravenous and oral panobinostat when given in combination with trastuzumab and paclitaxel. The study will evaluate safety and efficacy of the combination in adult female patients with HER2+ metastatic breast cancer
