A Study to Assess Preference for Subcutaneous Trastuzumab Treatment in Participants With Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (HER)2-Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer Responding to First-Line Intravenous Trastuzumab for at Least 3 Years

September 3, 2020 updated by: Hoffmann-La Roche

An Open-Label, Randomized, Multicenter Phase III Study in Patients With HER2-Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer Responding to First Line Treatment With Intravenous Trastuzumab for at Least 3 Years and Investigating Patient Preference for Subcutaneous Trastuzumab

This open-label, randomized, multicenter study will evaluate participant preference for subcutaneous (SC) versus intravenous (IV) trastuzumab (Herceptin) in participants with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer responding to first-line treatment with IV trastuzumab for at least 3 years. Participants will be randomized to receive either 3 cycles (cycle length = 21 days) of trastuzumab SC followed by 3 cycles of trastuzumab IV or 3 cycles of trastuzumab IV followed by 3 cycles of trastuzumab SC. All participants will receive trastuzumab SC for Cycles 7 to 18. Anticipated time on study treatment is 1 year or until disease progression or inacceptable toxicity occurs, whichever comes first.

Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Trastuzumab IV Then Trastuzumab SC
Participants will receive treatment with Trastuzumab IV for the first 3 cycles (cycle length = 21 days) followed by Trastuzumab SC for the next 3 cycles.

Other Names:
  • Herceptin
Experimental: Trastuzumab SC Then Trastuzumab IV
Participants will receive treatment with Trastuzumab SC for the first 3 cycles (cycle length = 21 days) followed by Trastuzumab IV for the next 3 cycles. Participants will continue receiving treatment with trastuzumab SC for another 12 cycles (if SC treatment is well tolerated, otherwise participants will continue IV treatment) for a total of 18 cycles of treatment during the study.
Trastuzumab will be administered at a dose of 6 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) IV or 600 milligrams per 5 milliliter (mg/5mL) SC in 21-day cycles as per schedule described in respective arm.
Other Names:
  • Herceptin
