Primary Outcome(s)

Main Objective: - To explore the efficacy of T-DM1 compared with the combination of trastuzumab and docetaxel in patients with HER2-positive MBC who have not received prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease, as measured by PFS based on investigator assessments
- To evaluate the safety of T-DM1 compared with the combination of trastuzumab and docetaxel in this population

Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy endpoint is PFS based on investigator assessment, defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of disease progression, as determined by investigator tumor assessments using RECIST, or death on study from any cause, whichever occurs earlier. Death on study is defined as death from any cause within 30 days of the last dose of study drug.

Secondary Objective: To explore the efficacy of T-DM1 compared with the combination of trastuzumab and docetaxel in patients with HER2-positive MBC who have not received prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease, as measured by median and 12-month PFS rate, duration of overall survival, the survival rate at 12 months, objective response rate, duration of objective response, and clinical benefit rate (the proportion of patients with CR, PR, and SD at 6 months) To characterize the PK properties of T-DM1 in this patient population To compare the time to symptom progression, as measured by the Trial Outcome Index-Physical/Functional/Breast (TOI-PFB) and patient-reported pain intensity, in the two treatment arms
