Purpose
This is an open phase II study evaluating the efficacy and safety of the non pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (Myocet®), trastuzumab (Herceptin®), and docetaxel (Taxotere®) combination as first-line treatment of patients with metastatic HER2/neu positive breast cancer.

Detailed Description:
Phase II non comparative study, assessing the safety (primarily cardiac safety) and efficacy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic HER2/neu positive breast cancer not yet treated with chemotherapy for metastatic disease.
Myocet and Taxotere will be given for a maximum of 6 cycles, Herceptin treatment for 1 year is recommended.
Endpoints: cardiotoxicity (left ventricular ejection fraction decrease and/or symptoms of heart failure), serious other toxicity, disease progression.
