ERBB2 and breast carcinoma: Pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel was shown to significantly improve progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with first-line metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer, which led to its approval [7] in the USA in 2012 and in the European Union in 2013 with intravenous dosing at a fixed (non-weight-based dose) loading dose of 840 mg, followed by 420 mg on a every three-week (q3w) schedule [7–11].
