E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Patients eligible for inclusion in this study have to meet all of the following criteria:
- Written informed consent obtained prior to any screening procedures

- ECOG performance status of 0-1 at study entry
- HER2-overexpressing positive gastric tumor by IHC3+ or IHC2+ with positive in situ hybridization
- Measurable disease according to RECIST (Irradiated lesions can not be considered measurable unless they have clearly progressed since radiotherapy).
- Negative serum pregnancy test. The serum pregnancy test must be obtained prior to any drug administration (≤ 72 hours prior to dosing) in all pre-menopausal women and for women < 2 years after the onset of menopause.

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Patients eligible for this study must not meet any of the following criteria:
- Evidence of spinal cord compression or current evidence of CNS metastases. CT/MRI of the brain is mandatory (within 3 weeks before study start) in case of clinical suspicion or evidence of brain metastases
- Patient must be ≥ 4 weeks since last chemotherapy or treatment with another systemic anti-cancer agent. Patients must have recovered (CTC ≤ 1) from acute toxicities of any previous therapy (with the exception of alopecia).
- Patients may have received prior radiotherapy for management of local disease providing that disease progression has been documented, all toxicities have resolved (CTC ≤ 1) (with the exception of alopecia), and the last fraction of radiotherapy was completed at least 4 weeks prior to the study.
- Prior treatment with an agent that acts via HER2/c-erbB2 targeting other than 1st line trastuzumab, include (but are not limited to) lapatinib and pertuzumab.
- Treatment with therapeutic doses of coumarin-type anticoagulants. (Maximum daily dose of 2 mg, for line patency permitted)
- Patients with malignant ascites that require invasive treatment
- Patients with acute or chronic renal disease; and active and chronic liver disease requiring intervention. Other concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions that could cause unacceptable safety risks or compromise compliance with the protocol.
- Major surgery ≤ 2 weeks prior to enrollment or who have not recovered from such therapy
- Impaired cardiac function
- Concurrent malignancies or invasive cancers diagnosed within the past 5 years, except for adequately treated basal cell cancer of the skin or in situ cancer of the cervix
- Patients receiving chronic or high dose corticosteroids therapy (Inhaled steroids and short courses of oral steroids for anti-emesis or as an appetite stimulant are allowed)
- Patients unwilling or unable to comply with the protocol
- Patients known to be HIV positive. Testing is not required in the absence of clinical signs and symptoms suggesting HIV infection.
- Known hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs or their excipients
- Participation in another clinical study within 30 days before first study treatment
- Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women, where pregnancy is defined as the state of a female after conception and until the termination of gestation, confirmed by a positive hCG laboratory test (> 5 mIU/mL).
- Fertile women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) not using adequate contraception (abstinence, oral contraceptives, intrauterine device or barrier method of contraception in conjunction with spermicidal jelly or surgically sterile).
