Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) of T-DM1 in brain lesions of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer with brain metastasis according to RECIST 1.1 as determined by local investigators;Secondary Objective: This study has the following secondary objectives: 1. To evaluate the CBR in brain lesions of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer with brain metastasis according to RECIST 1.1 as determined by central review; 2. To evaluate the CBR in brain lesions of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer with brain metastasis according to RANO criteria as determined by local investigators; 3. To evaluate the safety and cardiac-specific safety of the agent T-DM1; 4. To evaluate the following efficacy parameters, in brain and systemic and bi-compartmental (as applicable) according to RANO criteria and RECIST 1.1: CBR, Overall Response Rate (ORR), Best Response (BR), PFS, DoR, Duration of Clinical Benefit (DCB) 5. To evaluate the Overall Survival (OS) of this specific population; 6. To assess the quality of life via multiple validated tools (EORTC core questionnaire (QLQ-C30) and brain module (QLQ-BN20)).;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint of this study is the CB at first radiological assessment (after 3 cycles or earlier if clinically indicated), defined as complete response plus partial response plus stable disease in the brain, as measured by RECIST 1.1 and as determined by local investigators.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: at first radiological assessment | — |
Secondary

|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): The secondary endpoints of this study are: 1. CB in the brain as measured by RECIST 1.1 (see appendix 1), as determined by central review; 2. CB in the brain measured by RANO (see appendix 2) brain metastases criteria, as determined by local investigators; 3. General and cardiac-specific safety; Incidence, type and severity of all adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) based on National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE v4.03); Incidence and type of AEs leading to discontinuation, modification, or delay of T-DM1 dose; 4. The following additional efficacy parameters. All of them will be determined both by RANO and RECIST 1.1: CB: Systemic and bi-compartmental (see definition above), Overall Response (OR): defined as complete response plus partial response in: (1) brain, (2) systemically, (3) bi-compartmentally, Best Response (BR): in the brain, systemic and bi-compartmental defined as the best obtained response (be it PD, SD, PR or CR), among all imaging assessments, PFS: PFS defined as time between enrolment in the study and progression (systemic, brain and bi-compartmental) or death, DoR: defined as time from documentation of tumour response to in the brain (PR or CR) disease progression in the brain; systemic defined as time from documentation of non-brain tumour response (PR or CR) to non-brain progression, Bi-compartmental defined as time between response and progression, Duration of Clinical Benefit (DCB): is defined as the time elapsed between determination of SD, PR or CR and determination of disease progression; 5. OS defined as time between enrolment in the study and death 6. Quality of life (QoL).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: As per protocol. | — |
