Brief Summary:
This 3 arm study will assess the tolerability, safety and efficacy of 3 neoadjuvant treatment regimens in participants with locally advanced, inflammatory or early stage human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer. Before surgery, participants will be randomized to receive either A) 6 cycles of pertuzumab plus trastuzumab (Herceptin), with 5-fluorouracil/epirubicin/cyclophosphamide (FEC) for cycles 1-3 and docetaxel for cycles 4-6, or B) FEC for cycles 1-3 followed by pertuzumab plus trastuzumab with docetaxel for cycles 4-6, or C) 6 cycles of pertuzumab plus trastuzumab with docetaxel and carboplatin. Pertuzumab will be administered at a loading dose of 840 mg intravenously (iv), then 420 mg iv 3-weekly, trastuzumab at a loading dose of 8 mg/kg iv, then 6 mg/kg iv 3-weekly, docetaxel at 75 mg/m^2 iv, increased to 100 mg/m^2 iv 3-weekly, and FEC and carboplatin iv 3-weekly at standard doses. Following surgery participants will receive trastuzumab 6 mg/kg iv 3-weekly for a total of 1 year, as well as adequate chemo-, radio- and hormone therapy. Anticipated time on study treatment is 4-12 months, and target sample size is 200-300.

Primary Outcome Measures :
- Safety: Percentage of Participants With Symptomatic Cardiac Events as Assessed by the Investigator [ Time Frame: From baseline up to approximately 3.5 years ]Left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) as assessed by the Investigator, including Grade 3, 4 or 5 symptomatic LVSD with symptomatic cardiac events.
- Safety: Percentage of Participants With Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) Decline During Pre-operative (Neoadjuvant) Period [ Time Frame: From baseline up to approximately 18 weeks ]Percentage of participants with LVEF measures decline of ≥ 10% from baseline and to a value of <50% during the pre-operative (neoadjuvant) period.
Secondary Outcome Measures :
- Efficacy: Percentage of Participants With Complete Pathological Response (pCR) [ Time Frame: At surgery, after 18 weeks (6 cycles) of treatment ]pCR is defined as the absence of invasive neoplastic cells at microscopic examination of the tumor remnants after surgery following primary systemic therapy. pCR is evaluated after 6 cycles of treatment and surgery or following withdrawal from the study whichever occurs sooner.
- Efficacy: Clinical Response Rate [ Time Frame: During each 3-week cycle of 6 total cycles: up to 18 weeks ]Tumor response is defined as complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD) or progressive disease (PD) and is identified as per local practice. Clinical response rate is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve a response of CR or PR at any time pre-surgery. Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by mammogram or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical breast examination (CBE), CR is disappearance of all target lesions; PR is >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions.
- Efficacy: Time to Clinical Response [ Time Frame: Up to 18 weeks ]Time to clinical response is defined as the time from the date of first dose received to the first date of assessment of clinical response. Clinical response is defined as a response of CR or PR at any time pre-surgery. Per RECIST v1.0 for target lesions and assessed by mammogram or MRI and CBE, CR is disappearance of all target lesions; PR is >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions.
- Efficacy: Percentage of Participants Achieving Breast Conserving Surgery [ Time Frame: At approximately 18 weeks ]This is the percentage of participants who achieved breast conserving surgery out of the intent-to-treat population without inflammatory breast cancer, as these participants received mastectomy irrespective of their response to neoadjuvant (pre-operative) treatment.
- Efficacy: Percentage of Participants Without an Overall Survival (OS) Event [ Time Frame: From baseline to end of study up to 5 years ]Overall survival (OS) was defined as the time from randomization to the date of death from any cause. Participants who were alive or lost to follow-up were censored at the last known alive date. Participants with no post-baseline information were censored at the date of randomization plus one day.
- Efficacy: Percentage of Participants Without a Disease-Free Survival (DFS) Event [ Time Frame: From baseline to end of study up to 5 years ]The DFS was defined as the time from the first date of no disease (i.e., date of surgery) to the first documentation of progressive disease (PD) or death. PD was assessed using RECIST v1.0 and MRI and CBE. It was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions with an absolute increase of at least 5 mm or the appearance of one or more new lesions. Any evidence of contralateral disease in situ was not considered as PD. Participants who were withdrawn from the study without documented PD were censored at the date of the last assessment when the participant was known to be disease-free.
- Efficacy: Percentage of Participants Without a Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Event [ Time Frame: From baseline to end of study up to 5 years ]Progression-free survival was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the first documentation of PD or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. PD was assessed using RECIST v1.0 and MRI and CBE. It was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions with an absolute increase of at least 5 mm or the appearance of one or more new lesions. Participants who were withdrawn from the study without documented PD were censored at the date of the last assessment when the participant was known to be free from PD. Participants without post-baseline assessments but known to be alive were censored at the time of randomization plus one day.
- Safety: Percentage of Participants With Cardiac Symptoms Associated With Symptomatic Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction (LVSD) [ Time Frame: From Baseline to end of Neoadjuvant Period (up to 18 weeks), Adjuvant Period (up to 1.5 years), Follow-up Period (up to 3.5 years) ]Percentage of participants with signs or symptoms of cardiac events.
- Safety: Percentage of Participants With Asymptomatic Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) Events [ Time Frame: From baseline to end of Neoadjuvant Period (up to 18 weeks), Adjuvant Period (up to 1.5 years), Follow-up Period (up to 3.5 years) ]Percentage of participants with LVEF events without signs or symptoms of cardiac events.
- Safety: Maximum Decrease in Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) Measures [ Time Frame: From baseline up to approximately 3.5 years ]Maximum decrease in LVEF measures is the change from baseline at worst treatment value. LVEF is measured as percentage.
