2 Summary of HO648g trial design
AC q3w x 6 cycles (n=138) No prior anthracyclines n=281 AC q3w x 6 cycles + Herceptin (trastuzumab) 4 mg/kg loading, then 2 mg/kg qw until PD (n=143) HER2-positive MBC (IHC 3+ or 2+) No prior chemotherapy for MBC (n=469) Paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 q3w x 6 cycles (n=96) Prior adjuvant anthracyclines n=188 Reference Slamon DJ et al. N Engl J Med 2001; 344: 783–792. Paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 q3w x 6 cycles + Herceptin (trastuzumab) 4 mg/kg loading, then 2 mg/kg qw until PD (n=92) AC, doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 or epirubicin 75 mg/m2 & cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 HER2, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2; MBC, metastatic breast cancer; IHC, immunohistochemistry; PD, progressive disease; q3w, every 3 weeks; qw, every week Slamon et al 2001 2

HER2-positive MBC (IHC 3+ and / or FISH+) No prior chemotherapy for MBC Baseline LVEF >50% (n=186) Docetaxel 100 mg/m2 q3w x 6 cycles (n=94a) Docetaxel 100 mg/m2 q3w x 6 cycles + Herceptin (trastuzumab) 4 mg/kg loading, then 2 mg/kg qw until PD (n=92b) Reference Marty M et al. J Clin Oncol 2005; 23: 4265–4274. aAdditional cycles of docetaxel administered at investigator’s discretion. Patients progressing on docetaxel alone could cross over to receive Herceptin (trastuzumab); b2 patients did not receive study medication FISH, fluorescence in situ hybridisation; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction Marty et al 2005 4
