Measure Description: An Immunohistochemistry (IHC) test gives a score of 0 to 3+, which indicates the amount of Human Epidermal Growth Factor (HER2) receptor proteins on the cancer cells in the sample tissue. A positive score (3+) indicates that HER2 receptor protein is present, a negative score (0-1+) indicates that no HER2 receptor protein is present, and an equivocal score (2+) indicates uncertainty and a result that is open for interpretation. Equivocal results require additional testing. "Not applicable" refers to the number of participants who did not have IHC testing done.

Measure Description: The Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization (FISH) assay was used to determine the overexpression and/or amplification of HER2 in the invasive component of the primary tumor. Amplified indicates that the cell is overexpressing copies of the HER2 gene. Not amplified indicates that there is no overexpression of copies of the HER2 gene. "Not applicable" refers to the number of participants who did not have the FISH assay performed.

Title Event-free Survival (EFS) - Events and Censoring
Hide Description Event free survival (EFS) is defined as the time from randomization to first EFS event. For subjects who had breast cancer surgery, EFS events were post-surgery breast cancer relapse, second primary malignancy or death without recurrence. For subjects who did not have breast cancer surgery, EFS events were death during clinical follow-up or non-completion of any neoadjuvant investigational product due to disease progression.
Time Frame From randomization up to approximately year 10

Hide Description

The landmark date is 30 weeks after a subject's randomization. Subjects with missing pCR status were not included in the landmark analysis.

Clinical follow-up is the period during which the patient is monitored such that all recurrence or second primary malignancy (SPM) or contralateral breast cancer (CBC) events would be reported. Patients are considered in clinical follow-up from randomisation until one of the following occurs: lost to follow-up, withdrawal of consent, end of follow-up due to completion of year 10 visit, termination of study follow-up, or death.

Time Frame up to year 10
