This multicenter study will assess the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of capecitabine in combination with Kadcyla (trastuzumab emtansine) in participants with HER2-positive mBC or HER2-positive LA/mGC using a Phase 1 design, followed by a randomized, open-label Phase 2 part to explore the efficacy and safety of the combination of Kadcyla and capecitabine compared with Kadcyla alone in participants with mBC. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or study end.
Capecitabine will be administered at de-escalating doses (starting from 750 mg/m\^2) to determine the MTD.
Trastuzumab emtansine will be administered at a dose of 3.6 mg/kg via IV infusion every 3 weeks.
Trastuzumab emtansine will be administered at a dose of 2.4 mg/kg via IV infusion every week.
Capecitabine will be administered at the MTD determined in Cohort 1.
