- Patients must have adequate bone marrow reserves
- Patients must have adequate hepatic function
- Patients must have adequate renal function
- Patients must be recovered from the effects of any prior surgery, radiotherapy or

during screening visits or on the first scheduled day of dosing.
- Patients with untreated and/or symptomatic metastatic CNS malignancies.
- Patients with known hypersensitivity to any of the components of MM-111 or who have
had hypersensitivity reactions to fully human monoclonal antibodies, including
Herceptin.
- Patients who have received other recent antitumor therapy including:
- Treatment with Herceptin within the 28 days prior to the first scheduled day of
dosing with MM-111
- Investigational therapy administered within the 28 days prior to the first
scheduled day of dosing MM-111 (Dosing in less than 28 days' since receiving
investigational therapy is acceptable once a time interval equal to at least
five half-lives of the investigational agent has passed.)
- Any standard chemotherapy, Tykerb (lapatinib) or radiation within 14 days (and
having passed the time of any actual or anticipated toxicities) prior to the
first scheduled dose of MM-111
- Patients who have previously received MM-111
