Summary

This randomized, open-label, crossover study will evaluate participants' preference and healthcare professional (HCP) satisfaction with SC versus IV Herceptin administration in HER2-positive early breast cancer. Participants will be randomized to receive either SC Herceptin or IV Herceptin every 3 weeks for Cycles 1 to 4, followed by crossover to the other treatment administration for Cycles 5 to 8. For up to 10 additional cycles (for a total of 18 cycles), participants will receive IV or SC Herceptin every 3 weeks.

Conditions

  • Breast Neoplasms

Interventions

DRUG

Herceptin

Herceptin will be given on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle for a total of 18 cycles. If study treatment for Cycle 1 is IV Herceptin, the initial dose will be a loading dose of 8 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) for de novo participants who start Herceptin treatment in the study. For all other cycles where IV Herceptin is given and for non-de novo participants, the dose will be 6 mg/kg. The SC dose will be 600 milligrams (mg) for both the SID and vial formulations for all cycles where SC Herceptin is given.
