Measure
Caelyx, Docetaxel, Trastuzumab
Stage 1: subjects will receive Caelyx one day every 3 weeks in combination with docetaxel one day every 3 weeks and trastuzumab once weekly during 6 cycles. At the end of this stage, based on the number of cardiac events, subjects will proceed to a second stage or restart with a lower dose of Caelyx. Stage 2: subjects will be treated with the recommended dose of Caelyx (defined in the first stage) in combination with docetaxel and trastuzumab.
