A Study of Herceptin (Trastuzumab) in Combination With Whole Brain Radiotherapy in Patients With HER-2 Positive Breast Cancer
A Multicenter, Open Label Study to Assess the Effect of Trastuzumab + Whole Brain Radiotherapy (WBRT) on Brain Metastases From HER-2 Positive Breast Cancer. (bHERt-2)

This single-arm, multicenter, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Herceptin (trastuzumab) in combination with whole brain radiotherapy on brain metastases in patients with HER-2 positive breast cancer. The patients will receive Herceptin 4 mg/kg (loading dose) followed by 2 mg/kg for a maximum of 18 weekly cycles. The anticipated time on study treatment is 18 weeks.
