Summary

This is a multicenter, open-label, single-arm Phase II study designed to evaluate the effect of T-DM1 on the duration of corrected QT (QTc) interval in patients with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer and to make preliminary assessments regarding the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of combined T-DM1 and pertuzumab in patients with early disease progression. The QT interval is a measure of time between the start of the Q wave and the end of the T wave in the heart's electrical cycle. The QTcF interval is the QT interval as calculated using Fridericia's correction; the QTcB interval is the QT interval as calculated using Bazett's correction.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Histologically documented, locally advanced, or metastatic breast cancer; measurable and/or non-measureable but evaluable disease is permitted
  • HER2-positive disease
  • History of prior trastuzumab therapy
  • Life expectancy ≥ 90 days as assessed by the investigator
  • Negative urine pregnancy test ≤ 72 hours prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 for all women of childbearing potential
  • For patients of childbearing potential, agreement to use one highly effective form of contraception or two effective forms of contraception for the duration of the study treatment(s) and for 4 months after the last dose of T-DM1 or 6 months after the last dose of pertuzumab, if applicable

Exclusion Criteria

  • Any chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, or biologic therapy for the treatment of breast cancer within 2 weeks of the first study treatment
  • Prior T-DM1 or pertuzumab therapy
  • History of intolerance (such as Grade 3-4 infusion reaction) and/or adverse events related to trastuzumab
  • Grade ≥ 2 (based on National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [NCI CTCAE] v3) peripheral neuropathy at the time of or within 3 weeks prior to the first study treatment
  • Brain metastases that are untreated or progressive or have required any type of therapy, including radiation, surgery, and/or steroids, to control symptoms from brain metastases within 60 days prior to the first study treatment
  • History of cardiac disease, unstable angina, symptomatic congestive heart failure (CHF) (Class ≥ II per the New York Heart Associate [NYHA] guidelines), myocardial infarction, or ventricular arrhythmia ≤ 6 months prior to Cycle 1, Day 1
  • Implantable pacemaker or automatic implantable cardioverter defibrillator
  • Congenital long QT syndrome or family history of long QT syndrome
  • Current uncontrolled hypertension
  • Current treatment with medications that alter cardiac conduction (e.g., digitalis, beta-blockers, or calcium channel blockers) or medications that are generally accepted to have a risk of causing torsades de pointes (TdP)
  • Current known active infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus, or hepatitis C virus
  • Major surgical procedure or significant traumatic injury within 28 days prior to first study treatment, or anticipation of the need for major surgery during the course of study treatment
