Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Define the efficacy of trastuzumab-emtansine in HER2 amplified metastatic CRC patients with advanced disease refractory to chemotherapy, anti EGFR monoclonals, antiangiogenics and lapatinib plus trastuzumab combination (i.e. patients progressing within the HERACLES trial). ;Secondary Objective: Define the safety profile of T-DM1 in patients pre-treated with trastuzumab-lapatinib. Define the response duration to T-DM1 Define the time to progression to T-DM1;Primary end point(s): Objective Response Rate according to RECIST 1.1 criteria;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: first assessment after 6 weeks, then every 9 weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Description of the frequency and severity of Adverse Events based on the NCI ¿CTCAE V4.0; DCR; TTP;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: thoughtout the study; thoughtout the study; thoughtout the study
