Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: - Age >=18 years - Archival tumor samples must be obtained from primary and/or metastatic sites - Able to submit tumor tissue that is evaluable for programmed death- ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression - Human epidermal growth factor-2 positive breast cancer (BC) as defined by an immunohistochemistry score of 3 or gene amplified by in-situ hybridization as defined by a ratio of >=2.0 for the number of HER2 gene copies to the number of chromosome 17 copies, prospectively tested by a Sponsor- designated central laboratory prior to enrollment. Both IHC and ISH assays will be performed; however, only one positive result is required for eligibility - Histologically or cytologically confirmed invasive BC incurable, unresectable, locally advanced BC previously treated with multimodality therapy or metastatic breast cancer - Prior treatment for BC in the adjuvant, unresectable locally advanced or metastatic settings which must include both, a taxane and trastuzumab (alone or in combination with another agent) - Progression must have occurred during or after most recent treatment for locally advanced BC/MBC or within 6 months after completing adjuvant therapy - Participants must have measurable disease that is evaluable as per RECIST v1.1 - Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status of 0 or 1 - Adequate hematologic and end-organ function as evidenced by the following local laboratory results obtained within 2 weeks prior to the first study treatment (Cycle 1, Day 1): • Absolute neutrophil count >=1500 cells/microliter (µL) (without granulocyte-colony stimulating factor support) within 2 weeks prior to Cycle 1, Day 1 • Platelet count >=100,000/µL (without transfusion within 2 weeks prior to Cycle 1, Day 1) • Hemoglobin >=9.0 gram/deciliter (g/dL) • Albumin > 2.5 g/dL • Aspartate aminotransferase, alanine transaminase, and alkaline phosphatase = 30 millilitre/min - Negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days of enrollment for pre-menopausal women and for women less than 12 months after the onset of menopause - For women of childbearing potential, agreement to remain abstinent or use contraceptive methods that result in a failure rate of < 1% per year during the treatment period and for at least 7 months after the last dose of trastuzumab emtansine or 5 months after the last dose of atezolizumab/placebo, whichever is later. Women must refrain from donating eggs during this same period. - For men, agreement to remain abstinent or use contraceptive measures, and agreement to refrain from donating sperm that together result in a failure rate of < 1% per year during the treatment period and for at least 7 months after the last dose trastuzumab emtansine. Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 200

| Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of the combination of trastuzumab emtansine plus atezolizumab compared with trastuzumab emtansine plus placebo as measured by progression free survival (PFS) using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid tumors (RECIST) v1.1.; Secondary Objective: • To evaluate the efficacy of the combination of trastuzumab emtansine plus atezolizumab compared with trastuzumab emtansine plus placebo as measured by overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and duration of response (DOR) using RECIST v1.1 • To evaluate the overall safety of trastuzumab emtansine in combination with atezolizumab compared with trastuzumab emtansine in combination with placebo • To characterize the pharmacokinetics of atezolizumab in the presence of trastuzumab emtansine and trastuzumab emtansine in the presence and absence of atezolizumab • To characterize the incidence of anti-therapeutic antibody (ATA) to atezolizumab and trastuzumab emtansine. ;Primary end point(s): PFS as determined by investigator’s tumor assessment.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Up to 40 months. | — |
