Purpose

This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of adjuvant atezolizumab

when given in combination with trastuzumab emtansine compared with placebo and

trastuzumab emtansine for patients with residual invasive HER2-positive breast cancer

following neoadjuvant taxane-based and HER2-targeted therapy including trastuzumab, who

are at high risk of disease recurrence. The primary endpoint for this study is invasive

disease-free survival (IDFS).

Inclusion Criteria

    Signed Informed Consent Form
     Age  18 years at time of signing the Informed Consent Form
     Ability to comply with the study protocol
     Histologically confirmed invasive breast carcinoma
     Clinical stage at presentation (as per American Joint Committee on Cancer [AJCC]
    Cancer Staging Manual, 8th edition): cT4/anyN/M0, any cT/N2–3/M0, or
    cT1-3/N0-1/M0 (patients with cT1mi/T1a/T1b/N0 are not eligible) including the
    following requirements:
    - Patients with cT1-3/N0-1/M0 disease at presentation (patients with
    cT1mi/T1a/T1b/N0 are not eligible) must have pathologic evidence of residual
    invasive carcinoma in axillary lymph node(s) at surgery (with or without residual
    invasive disease in the breast)
    - Patients with cT4/anyN/M0 or any cT/N2–3/M0 disease at presentation must
    have pathologic evidence of residual invasive carcinoma in the breast and/or
    axillary lymph node(s) at surgery
     Diagnosis of HER2-positive breast cancer with assessment of known hormone
    receptor (ER positive or negative/PgR positive or negative) and known PD-L1
    status (positive or negative), as documented through central testing of a
    representative tumor tissue specimen from a pretreatment (prior to neoadjuvant
    therapy) biopsy. The tumor tissue specimen must be submitted prior to study
    enrollment.

Exclusion Criteria

    Stage IV (metastatic) breast cancer
     Inadequate excision (as described in Section 4.1.1)
     An overall response of disease progression according to the investigator at the
    conclusion of preoperative systemic therapy
     Patients for whom radiotherapy would be recommended for breast cancer treatment
    but for whom it is contraindicated because of medical reasons (e.g., connective
    tissue disorder or prior ipsilateral breast radiation)
     History of other malignancy within 5 years prior to screening, except for
    appropriately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix, non-melanoma skin carcinoma,
    Stage I uterine cancer, or DCIS
     History of exposure to the following cumulative doses of anthracyclines:
    - Doxorubicin  240 mg/m2
    - Epirubicin or liposomal doxorubicin-hydrochloride (Myocet)  480 mg/m2
    - For other anthracyclines, exposure equivalent to doxorubicin  240 mg/m2
     Prior treatment with atezolizumab
     Prior treatment with trastuzumab emtansine in the neoadjuvant setting or relapse
    to trastuzumab emtansine in the adjuvant setting
     Prior treatment with CD137 agonists or immune checkpoint blockade therapies,
    including anticytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein-4, antiPD-1, and
    antiPD-L1 therapeutic antibodies
