- Radiographic evidence of central nervous system (CNS) metastases as assessed by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), unless they have been treated and have been stable for at least 3 months and do not require ongoing corticosteroid treatment
- Current peripheral neuropathy of Grade 3 or greater
- History of other malignancy within the last 5 years prior to first dose of study drug administration, except for carcinoma in situ of the cervix or basal cell carcinoma
- Inadequate organ function
- Uncontrolled hypertension with or without medication
- Clinically significant cardiovascular disease
- History of LVEF decline to below 50% during or after prior Herceptin neo-adjuvant or adjuvant therapy
- Current known infection with HIV, hepatitis B virus, or hepatitis C virus

- Pregnant or lactating women
- Dyspnea at rest due to complications of advanced malignancy or other disease requiring continuous oxygen therapy
- History of receiving any investigational treatment within 28 days prior to first dose of study drug administration (dosing) or concurrent participation in any interventional clinical trial |
