Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This single arm, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Herceptin (trastuzumab) in combination with a taxane as first line therapy in participants with HER2-positive breast cancer who relapsed after neoadjuvant or adjuvant Herceptin treatment. Participants will receive Herceptin (loading dose of 4 mg/kg intravenously \[iv\], 2 mg/kg iv weekly thereafter) with 6 3-week cycles of either docetaxel (100 mg/m2 iv every 3 weeks) or paclitaxel (90 mg/m2 every week). Herceptin treatment will be continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.

Study Groups

Trastuzumab

Participants with metastatic breast cancer received a loading dose of 4 milligrams per kilograms (mg/kg) of trastuzumab intravenously (IV) followed by 2 mg/kg of trastuzumab IV once a week along with docetaxel 100 milligrams per meter square (mg/m\^2), every 3 weeks or paclitaxel 90 mg/m\^2 once a week until progression of disease, occurrence of intolerable toxicity, the participant discontinues the study or dies.
