Pertuzumab, trastuzumab, and docetaxel for Chinese patients with previously untreated HER2-positive locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer (PUFFIN): a phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.

PUFFIN met its primary objective. Overall, efficacy data were consistent with CLEOPATRA. Safety was consistent with the known pertuzumab safety profile. PUFFIN adds to the totality of data with pertuzumab in previously untreated HER2-positive locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer and supports the favorable benefit-risk profile of pertuzumab in Chinese patients TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02896855, registered 7 September 2016.
