Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To demonstrate superiority of the experimental over the control treatment with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). ;Secondary Objective: • To evaluate the efficacy of trastuzumab emtansine plus atezolizumab compared with trastuzumab emtansine plus placebo beyond PFS and OS; • To evaluate the safety of trastuzumab emtansine plus atezolizumab compared with trastuzumab emtansine plus placebo; • To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of trastuzumab emtansine and atezolizumab when given in combination; • To evaluate the immune response to atezolizumab and trastuzumab emtansine when given in combination. ;Primary end point(s): 1. Progression-free survival (investigator assessed) 2. Overall survival ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1-2. Up to 78.1 months. | — |
