Study Evaluating Neratinib Plus Paclitaxel VS Trastuzumab Plus Paclitaxel In ErbB-2 Positive Advanced Breast Cancer

Summary

This study is investigating the effects of an experimental drug (neratinib) in combination with paclitaxel versus trastuzumab in combination with paclitaxel for the treatment of women who have not received previous treatment for erbB-2-positive locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer. The study will compare the effectiveness of each regimen in shrinking tumors and extending the lives of women with erbB-2 (HER2) positive breast cancer.
