A Randomized Three-Arm, Multicenter Comparison of 1 Year and 2 Years of Herceptin Versus No Herceptin in Women With HER2-Positive Primary Breast Cancer Who Have Completed Adjuvant Chemotherapy
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Herceptin for Breast Cancer. Completed, enrolled 5,099 participants across 203 sites in 33 countries.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate Herceptin treatment for 1 year and 2 years (versus observation/no Herceptin) in women with HER2-overexpressing primary breast cancer who have completed (neo-)adjuvant systemic chemotherapy, definitive surgery, and radiotherapy, if applicable. Efficacy and safety will be assessed for 10 years from randomization for each participant. All participants will continue to be followed for survival until 10 years after enrollment of the last participant.
