About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open-Label, Two-Part, Multicenter Perjeta® Subcutaneous Dose-Finding Study in Combination With Herceptin® in Healthy Male Volunteers and Female Patients With Early Breast Cancer

This study involves a two-part design. Part 1 is designed to determine the optimal dose of subcutaneous (SC) Perjeta, injected alone or mixed with Herceptin, that results in comparable exposure to intravenous (IV) Perjeta. Exposure between SC Perjeta and IV Perjeta will be compared using a compilation of pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters such as area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), maximum serum concentration (Cmax), time of maximum concentration (Tmax), and serum trough concentration (Ctrough). Part 2 is designed to confirm the dosing regimen in women with EBC on the basis of safety, tolerability, and PK assessments.

Being tested
Trastuzumab, Pertuzumab

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TrastuzumabDrug

    Also called Herceptin, RO0452317

    Participants will receive a single dose of trastuzumab 600 mg SC separately, co-mixed or co-formulated with pertuzumab.

  • PertuzumabDrug

    Also called Perjeta, RO4368451

    Participants will receive pertuzumab as a single agent injection, co-mixed or formulated as FDC with trastuzumab depending upon cohort. The dose will range from 400 to 1200 mg.
