Brief Summary

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate Herceptin treatment for 1 year and 2 years (versus observation/no Herceptin) in women with HER2-overexpressing primary breast cancer who have completed (neo-)adjuvant systemic chemotherapy, definitive surgery, and radiotherapy, if applicable. Efficacy and safety will be assessed for 10 years from randomization for each participant.
