  • History of other malignancy within the last 5 years, except for appropriately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix, non-melanoma skin carcinoma, Stage I uterine cancer, or other cancers with a similar outcome as those previously mentioned.
  • Previous radiotherapy for the treatment of unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer is not allowed if more than 25% of marrow-bearing bone has been irradiated or the last fraction of radiotherapy has been administered within approximately 3 weeks prior to randomization.
  • Brain metastases that are untreated, symptomatic, or require therapy to control symptoms or any radiation, surgery, or other therapy to control symptoms from brain metastases within 2 months prior to randomization.
  • History of exposure to the following cumulative doses of anthracyclines: Doxorubicin or liposomal doxorubicin \> 500 mg/m\^2; epirubicin \> 900 mg/m\^2; mitoxantrone \> 120mg/m\^2 and idarubicin \> 90 mg/m\^2.
  • Current unstable angina.
  • History of symptomatic congestive heart failure, or ventricular arrhythmia requiring treatment.
  • History of myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to randomization.
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) below 50% within approximately 28 days prior to randomization.
  • History of decreased LVEF or symptomatic congestive heart failure (CHF) with previous adjuvant trastuzumab treatment.
  • Cardiac troponin I ≥ 0.2 ng/mL within 28 days of randomization.
  • Severe dyspnea at rest because of complications of advanced malignancy or requiring current continuous oxygen therapy.
  • Current severe, uncontrolled systemic disease (eg, clinically significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, or metabolic disease; wound healing disorders; ulcers; or bone fractures).
  • Major surgical procedure or significant traumatic injury within approximately 28 days prior to randomization or anticipation of the need for major surgery during the course of study treatment.
  • Current pregnancy or lactation.
  • History of receiving any investigational treatment within approximately 28 days prior to randomization.
  • Current known infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), active hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C virus.
