Subcutaneous trastuzumab with pertuzumab and docetaxel in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer: Final analysis of MetaPHER, a phase IIIb single-arm safety study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Intravenous trastuzumab, pertuzumab, and docetaxel are first-line standard of care for patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (mBC). MetaPHER is the first study assessing the safety and tolerability of subcutaneous trastuzumab plus intravenous pertuzumab and chemotherapy in a global patient population with HER2-positive mBC.

Methods

In this open-label, single-arm, multicenter, phase 3b study, eligible patients were ≥ 18 years old with histologically/cytologically confirmed previously untreated HER2-positive mBC. All received ≥ 1 subcutaneous trastuzumab 600 mg fixed dose plus intravenous pertuzumab (loading dose: 840 mg/kg; maintenance: 420 mg/kg) and docetaxel (≥ 6 cycles; initial dose 75 mg/m²) every 3 weeks.
