Eligibility Criteria

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Previously untreated, infiltrating primary breast cancer with locally advanced,
             inflammatory, or early stage tumor (either greater than 2 cm in diameter or node
             positive) with no evidence of metastatic disease.

          -  HER2 positivity (either immunohistochemistry 3+ or fluorescent in situ hybridization
             amplification).

          -  Age 18 or older.

          -  Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 to 1.

          -  Availability of tumor tissue for biologic and molecular examination before starting
             primary treatment.

          -  Left ventricular ejection fraction within the institutional range of normal.

          -  Normal organ and marrow function.

          -  Adequate contraception methods for women of childbearing potential.

          -  Prior diagnosis of cancer is allowed as long as patient is free of disease and has
             been off treatment for the prior malignancy for a minimal interval of 3 years.

          -  Written informed consent.

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  Either stage I or IV breast cancer.

          -  Prior trastuzumab or pertuzumab.

          -  Any prior chemotherapy.

          -  Treatment with any other investigational agent, or participation in another clinical
             trial within 28 days prior to enrolment.

          -  Undergone major surgery (e.g., intrathoracic, intra-abdominal or intra-pelvic) 4 weeks

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Tumor Infiltrating lymphocites (TIL) rate on residual disease after either IV trastuzumab or SC trastuzumab (see related paragraph)
Time Frame:6 months after last patient in
Safety Issue:
Description:stromal lymphocytes will be scored quantitatively on H&E stained whole-tumor slides as a continuous variable expressed as stromal percentage area within the tumor boundaries. For tumors with heterogeneous TILs, median values will be calculated from multiple counts from different tumor areas. Intra-epithelial TILs will also be recorded as well as tertiary lymphoid structures. Tumor regression will be scored based on recommended criteria.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Associations between biomarkers (TIL, Tumor specific lymphocyte cell activity (TLA), and Fc-gamma-R polymorphisms) and between each biomarker with clinical outcome variables.
Time Frame:at baseline, 6 months and 5 years after last patient in
Safety Issue:
Description:
Measure:Frequency of toxicity Events: frequency of moderate and severe toxicity events and drop-out rate due to theraphy related toxicity (NCICommon Toxicity Criteria v 4.0)
Time Frame:3.5 years
Safety Issue:
Description:
Measure:HRQOL during study treatment based on FACT-B
Time Frame:at baseline, and 6 months after last patient in
Safety Issue:
Description:mean FACT-B scores assessed at enrolment and mean FACT-B scores assessed before surgery.
Measure:Complete pathological response rate by treatment arm
Time Frame:6 months after last patient in
Safety Issue:
Description:
Measure:5-year disease-free survival by treatment arm between treatment arms
Time Frame:5 years
