  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Percentage of Participants With Objective Response in the CNS, Assessed Using Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology-Brain Metastases (RANO-BM) Criteria [From Baseline until disease progression (assessed every 6 weeks for first 2 scans, followed by every 8 weeks for 2 scans, then every 12 weeks until disease progression; up to approximately 3.5 years)]

      Responses were assessed by the investigator, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, physical examinations, routine neurological examinations, and corticosteroid dosing. An objective response in the central nervous system (CNS) was a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) confirmed by repeat assessment, according to RANO-BM criteria. A CR was defined as the disappearance of all CNS target lesions sustained for at least 4 weeks; no new lesions; no corticosteroids; and stable or improved clinically; for non-target lesions, a CR was the disappearance of all enhancing CNS non-target lesions and no new CNS lesions. A PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum longest diameter (LD) of CNS target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD sustained for at least 4 weeks; no new lesions; stable to decreased corticosteroid dose; and stable or improved clinically. The 95% Clopper-Pearson exact confidence intervals were calculated for responses.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Median Duration of Response in the CNS, Assessed Using RANO-BM Criteria [From documentation of first complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) to the time of disease progression, relapse, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 3.5 years)]

      Responses were assessed by the investigator, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, physical examinations, routine neurological examinations, and corticosteroid dosing. An objective response in the central nervous system (CNS) was a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) confirmed by repeat assessment, according to RANO-BM criteria. Among participants who achieved an objective response, duration of response in the CNS was defined as the time from documentation of the first CR or PR to the time of disease progression, relapse, or death from any cause. If a participant did not experience death or disease progression in the CNS before the end of the study, duration of response was censored on the last date the participant was known to be progression free. Duration of response was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.

    2. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Benefit (Confirmed CR, PR, or Stable Disease [SD] ≥4 Months) in the CNS, Assessed Using RANO-BM Criteria [From Baseline until disease progression (assessed every 6 weeks for first 2 scans, followed by every 8 weeks for 2 scans, then every 12 weeks until disease progression; up to approximately 5 years)]

      Responses were assessed by the investigator, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, physical examinations, routine neurological examinations, and corticosteroid dosing. Clinical benefit in the central nervous system (CNS) was defined here as a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) for at least 4 months, confirmed by repeat assessment according to RANO-BM criteria. A CR or PR were defined in the same way as for objective response in the CNS. SD was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease, taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter (LD) while on study. The 95% Clopper-Pearson exact confidence intervals were calculated for responses.

    3. Median Duration of Clinical Benefit (Confirmed CR, PR, or SD ≥4 Months) in the CNS, Assessed Using RANO-BM Criteria [From documentation of first complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) ≥4 months to the date of disease progression, relapse, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 5 years)]

      Responses were assessed by the investigator, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, physical examinations, routine neurological examinations, and corticosteroid dosing. Clinical benefit in the central nervous system (CNS) was defined here as a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) for at least 4 months, confirmed by repeat assessment according to RANO-BM criteria. Among participants who achieved clinical benefit, duration of clinical benefit in the CNS was defined as the time from documentation of the first CR, PR, or SD ≥4 months to the time of disease progression, relapse, or death from any cause. If a participant did not experience death or disease progression in the CNS before the end of the study, duration of clinical benefit was censored on the last date the participant was known to be progression free. Duration of clinical benefit was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.

    4. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Benefit (Confirmed CR, PR, or SD ≥6 Months) in the CNS, Assessed Using RANO-BM Criteria [From Baseline until disease progression (assessed every 6 weeks for first 2 scans, followed by every 8 weeks for 2 scans, then every 12 weeks until disease progression; up to approximately 5 years)]

      Responses were assessed by the investigator, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, physical examinations, routine neurological examinations, and corticosteroid dosing. Clinical benefit in the central nervous system (CNS) was defined here as a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) for at least 6 months, confirmed by repeat assessment according to RANO-BM criteria. A CR or PR were defined in the same way as for objective response in the CNS. SD was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease, taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter (LD) while on study. The 95% Clopper-Pearson exact confidence intervals were calculated for responses.

    5. Median Duration of Clinical Benefit (Confirmed CR, PR, or SD ≥6 Months) in the CNS, Assessed Using RANO-BM Criteria [From documentation of first complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) ≥6 months to the date of disease progression, relapse, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 5 years)]

      Responses were assessed by the investigator, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, physical examinations, routine neurological examinations, and corticosteroid dosing. Clinical benefit in the central nervous system (CNS) was defined here as a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) for at least 6 months, confirmed by repeat assessment according to RANO-BM criteria. Among participants who achieved clinical benefit, duration of clinical benefit in the CNS was defined as the time from documentation of the first CR, PR, or SD ≥6 months to the time of disease progression, relapse, or death from any cause. If a participant did not experience death or disease progression in the CNS before the end of the study, duration of clinical benefit was censored on the last date the participant was known to be progression free. Duration of clinical benefit was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.

    6. Progression-Free Survival (CNS), Assessed Using RANO-BM Criteria [From the date of first dose to disease progression in the CNS or death from any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 5 years)]

      Progression-free survival (CNS) was defined as the time from the date of first dose to disease progression in the CNS or death from any cause. If no progressive disease in the CNS and no death occurred, progression-free survival (CNS) was censored on the date of the last CNS tumor assessment. If a post-baseline assessment was not available, progression-free survival (CNS) was censored on Day 1.

    7. Progression-Free Survival (Systemic), Assessed Using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) [From the date of first dose to systemic disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 5 years)]

      Progression-free survival (systemic) was defined as the time from the date of first dose to systemic disease progression or death from any cause. If no systemic disease progression and no death occurred, progression-free survival (systemic) was censored on the date of the last systemic tumor assessment. If a post-baseline assessment was not available, progression-free survival (systemic) was censored on Day 1.

    8. Progression-Free Survival (CNS or Systemic), Assessed Using RANO-BM Criteria and RECIST v1.1 [From the date of first dose to CNS or systemic disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 5 years)]

      Progression-free survival (CNS or systemic) was defined as the time from the date of first dose to CNS or systemic disease progression or death from any cause. If no CNS or systemic disease progression and no death occurred, data was censored on the date of the last CNS or systemic tumor assessment, whichever occurred first. If a post-baseline assessment was not available, data was censored on Day 1.

    9. Overall Survival [From the date of first dose until death due to any cause (up to approximately 5 years)]

      Overall survival was defined as the period from the date of first dose until the date of death from any cause. If no death occurred, overall survival was censored on the last date the participant was known to be alive.

    10. Number of Deaths by Time (≤30 or >30 Days) From Last Study Drug Administration and by Primary Cause of Death [From date of first dose until death due to any cause (up to approximately 5 years)]

      Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were defined as all adverse events occurring on or after Day 1 of study treatment until 30 days after the last dose of study treatment. All TEAEs were graded for severity using the NCI-CTCAE v4.0; any TEAE not specifically listed was assessed per the following 5 grades: Grade 1 = mild; asymptomatic or mild symptoms; clinical or diagnostic observations only; or intervention not indicated. Grade 2 = moderate; minimal, local, or non-invasive intervention indicated; or limiting age-appropriate instrumental activities of daily living. Grade 3 = severe or medically significant, but not immediately life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; or limiting self-care activities of daily living. Grade 4 = life-threatening consequences or urgent intervention indicated. Grade 5 = death related to adverse event. Multiple occurrences of TEAEs were counted only once per participant at the highest (worst) grade.

      Protocol-defined TEAEs of special interest, occurring on or after Day 1 of study treatment until 30 days after the last dose of study treatment, included the following: An elevated ALT or AST (>3 times baseline value) in combination with either an elevated total bilirubin (>2 times the upper limit of normal) or clinical jaundice; Suspected transmission of an infectious agent by the study treatment; Congestive heart failure; An asymptomatic decline in LVEF (a value 10 percentage points below baseline or lower, and <45%) that requires treatment or that leads to discontinuation of study treatment. All TEAEs of special interest were graded for severity using the NCI-CTCAE v4.0. Multiple occurrences of TEAEs of special interest were counted only once per participant at the highest (worst) grade.

    17. Median Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) Values Over Time [Baseline, Weeks 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, and 132 (Treatment Period); and every 3 months during Survival Follow-Up (up to approximately 5 years)]

      Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is the measurement of the percentage of blood that is being pumped out of the left ventricle of the heart (the main pumping chamber) with each contraction. All participants were required to have had a baseline LVEF of at least 50% to participate in this study. Measurements were done by either echocardiogram (ECHO) or mulitple-gated acquisition (MUGA) scan (with ECHO as the preferred method). Participants were to be reassessed with the same technique used for baseline cardiac evaluation throughout the study.

    18. Number of Participants by Investigator Interpretation of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) Assessments Over Time [Baseline, Weeks 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, and 132 (Treatment Period); and every 3 months during Survival Follow-Up (up to approximately 5 years)]

      Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is the measurement of the percentage of blood that is being pumped out of the left ventricle of the heart (the main pumping chamber) with each contraction. All participants were required to have had a baseline LVEF of at least (≥)50% to participate in this study. Measurements were done by either echocardiogram (ECHO) or mulitple-gated acquisition (MUGA) scan (with ECHO as the preferred method). Participants were to be reassessed with the same technique used for baseline cardiac evaluation throughout the study. The following are definitions for the three categories of LVEF findings: 'Normal' was defined as LVEF >45% or LVEF 40-45% with less than (<)10% points drop below baseline; 'Abnormal' was defined as LVEF <40% or LVEF ≥10% points drop below baseline, and clinically significant versus non-clinically significant was subject to the investigator's assessment of whether symptoms were present or absent.

    19. Number of Participants With NCI-CTCAE v4.0 Grades 3 and 4 Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities in Hematology Tests Over Time [Baseline, Weeks 18, 36, and 60 (up to approximately 5 years)]

      Clinical laboratory tests for hematology parameters were performed every 6 weeks and any abnormal values (High or Low) were based on NCI-CTCAE v4.0 grades. Laboratory abnormalities of NCI-CTCAE v4.0 Grades 3 and 4 are presented. Not every abnormal laboratory value qualified as an adverse event, only if it met any of the following criteria: clinically significant (per investigator); accompanied by clinical symptoms; resulted in a change in study treatment; or required a change in concomitant therapy. For the overall category, multiple occurrences of the same laboratory abnormality over time in one participant were only counted once.

    20. Number of Participants With NCI-CTCAE v4.0 Grades 3 and 4 Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities in Blood Chemistry Tests Over Time [Weeks 6, 12, and 18, and Unscheduled Visits (up to approximately 5 years)]

      Clinical laboratory tests for blood chemistry parameters were performed every 6 weeks and any abnormal values (High or Low) were based on NCI-CTCAE v4.0 grades. Laboratory abnormalities of NCI-CTCAE v4.0 Grades 3 and 4 are presented. Not every abnormal laboratory value qualified as an adverse event, only if it met any of the following criteria: clinically significant (per investigator); accompanied by clinical symptoms; resulted in a change in study treatment; or required a change in concomitant therapy. For the overall category, multiple occurrences of the same laboratory abnormality over time in one participant were only counted once.

    21. Observed Trough Serum Concentrations (Cmin) of Pertuzumab at Specified Timepoints [Pre-dose (0-4 hours) on Day 1 of Weeks 1, 4, 10, and 16]

      Per protocol eligibility criteria, participants were not required to be pertuzumab naïve; therefore pertuzumab was detectable in some participants pre-dose at Week 1.

    22. Maximum Serum Concentrations (Cmax) of Pertuzumab at Specified Timepoints [Post-infusion (0-30 minutes, infused over 60 minutes) on Day 1 of Week 1 and 16]

    23. Observed Trough Serum Concentrations (Cmin) of Trastuzumab at Specified Timepoints [Pre-dose (0-4 hours) on Day 1 of Weeks 1, 4, 10, and 16]

      Per protocol eligibility criteria, participants were not required to be trastuzumab naïve; therefore trastuzumab was detectable in some participants pre-dose at Week 1.

    24. Maximum Serum Concentrations (Cmax) of Trastuzumab at Specified Timepoints [Post-infusion (0-30 minutes, infused over 60 minutes) on Day 1 of Week 1 and 16]

    25. Symptom Severity Scale Score Over Time, Assessed by Participant Reporting on the M.D. Anderson Symptom Inventory-Brain Tumor (MDASI-BT) Questionnaire [Baseline, Weeks 6, 12, 20, 28, 40, 52, and 64]

      The MDASI-BT consists of 28 items and is a multi-symptom measure of cancer-related symptoms (Cleeland et al. 2000) that are sensitive to disease and treatment changes. The MDASI-BT is composed of the symptom severity scale and the symptom interference scale. In the symptom severity scale, participants rate the severity of their symptoms in the last 24 hours on 0-10 numeric scales, ranging from 0 = "not present" to 10 = "as bad as you can imagine." The MDASI-BT symptom severity scale score will be calculated by (sum of total scores of non-missing items) divided by (total number of non-missing items), if participants answered at least 12 of the 22 severity scale items. The score will be considered missing if less than 12 items are completed.

    26. Symptom Interference Scale Score Over Time, Assessed by Participant Reporting on the MDASI-BT Questionnaire [Baseline, Weeks 6, 12, 20, 28, 40, 52, and 64]

      The MDASI-BT consists of 28 items and is a multi-symptom measure of cancer-related symptoms that are sensitive to disease and treatment changes. The MDASI-BT is composed of the symptom severity scale and the symptom interference scale. In the symptom interference scale, participants rate interference with daily activities caused by their symptoms on 0-10 numeric scales ranging from 0 = "did not interfere" to 10 = "interfered completely." The MDASI-BT symptom interference scale score will be calculated by (sum of total scores of non-missing items) divided by (total number of non-missing items), if participants answered at least 4 of the 6 interference scale items. The score will be considered missing if less than 4 items are completed.

    Outcome Measures

    1. Primary Outcome
    Title Percentage of Participants With Objective Response in the CNS, Assessed Using Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology-Brain Metastases (RANO-BM) Criteria
    Description Responses were assessed by the investigator, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, physical examinations, routine neurological examinations, and corticosteroid dosing. An objective response in the central nervous system (CNS) was a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) confirmed by repeat assessment, according to RANO-BM criteria. A CR was defined as the disappearance of all CNS target lesions sustained for at least 4 weeks; no new lesions; no corticosteroids; and stable or improved clinically; for non-target lesions, a CR was the disappearance of all enhancing CNS non-target lesions and no new CNS lesions. A PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum longest diameter (LD) of CNS target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD sustained for at least 4 weeks; no new lesions; stable to decreased corticosteroid dose; and stable or improved clinically. The 95% Clopper-Pearson exact confidence intervals were calculated for responses.
    Time Frame From Baseline until disease progression (assessed every 6 weeks for first 2 scans, followed by every 8 weeks for 2 scans, then every 12 weeks until disease progression; up to approximately 3.5 years)

    Outcome Measure Data

    Analysis Population Description
    Efficacy-Evaluable Population: all participants who received any dose of study treatment and had at least one follow-up CNS tumor assessment or died without follow-up tumor assessment within 30 days from the last dose of study treatment.
    Arm/Group Title Pertuzumab + Trastuzumab
    Arm/Group Description Participants with CNS metastases secondary to HER2-positive MBC, who had disease progression in the brain following previous treatment with radiotherapy (whole-brain radiation therapy or stereotactic radiosurgery) for brain metastases, received treatment with pertuzumab in combination with high-dose trastuzumab until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or study termination by the Sponsor, whichever occurred first.

    Description Responses were assessed by the investigator, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, physical examinations, routine neurological examinations, and corticosteroid dosing. An objective response in the central nervous system (CNS) was a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) confirmed by repeat assessment, according to RANO-BM criteria. Among participants who achieved an objective response, duration of response in the CNS was defined as the time from documentation of the first CR or PR to the time of disease progression, relapse, or death from any cause. If a participant did not experience death or disease progression in the CNS before the end of the study, duration of response was censored on the last date the participant was known to be progression free. Duration of response was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Description Responses were assessed by the investigator, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, physical examinations, routine neurological examinations, and corticosteroid dosing. Clinical benefit in the central nervous system (CNS) was defined here as a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) for at least 4 months, confirmed by repeat assessment according to RANO-BM criteria. A CR or PR were defined in the same way as for objective response in the CNS. SD was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease, taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter (LD) while on study. The 95% Clopper-Pearson exact confidence intervals were calculated for responses.

    Title Number of Participants by Investigator Interpretation of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) Assessments Over Time
    Description Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is the measurement of the percentage of blood that is being pumped out of the left ventricle of the heart (the main pumping chamber) with each contraction. All participants were required to have had a baseline LVEF of at least (≥)50% to participate in this study. Measurements were done by either echocardiogram (ECHO) or mulitple-gated acquisition (MUGA) scan (with ECHO as the preferred method). Participants were to be reassessed with the same technique used for baseline cardiac evaluation throughout the study. The following are definitions for the three categories of LVEF findings: 'Normal' was defined as LVEF >45% or LVEF 40-45% with less than (<)10% points drop below baseline; 'Abnormal' was defined as LVEF <40% or LVEF ≥10% points drop below baseline, and clinically significant versus non-clinically significant was subject to the investigator's assessment of whether symptoms were present or absent.
    Time Frame Baseline, Weeks 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, and 132 (Treatment Period); and every 3 months during Survival Follow-Up (up to approximately 5 years)

    Adverse Events

    Time Frame From first dose of study drug until 30 days after last dose of study drug (except for serious AEs related to treatment; up to approximately 5 years)
    Adverse Event Reporting Description Investigators seek information on adverse events (AEs) at each patient contact. All AEs were recorded, regardless of who reported them. After informed consent but prior to initiation of study drug, only serious AEs caused by protocol-mandated intervention were to be reported. After initiation of study drug, all AEs were to be reported until 30 days after the last dose of study drug. After this period, only serious AEs believed to be related to prior study drug treatment were to be reported.
