Brief Summary: RATIONALE The monoclonal antibody trastuzumab can locate breast cancer cells that have HER2 on their surface and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells Estrogen can stimulate the growth of breast cancer cells Hormone therapy using exemestane may fight breast cancer by reducing the production of estrogen Combining trastuzumab with exemestane may be an effective treatment for breast cancer with high amounts of HER2

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining trastuzumab with exemestane in treating postmenopausal women who have metastatic or locally advanced HER2-positive breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the efficacy of exemestane and trastuzumab Herceptin in terms of response rate and time to progression in postmenopausal women with metastatic or locally advanced hormone-responsive HER2neu positive breast cancer
Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study

Patients receive trastuzumab Herceptin IV over 30-90 minutes on day 1 and oral exemestane once daily Treatment repeats every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Patients are followed every 3 months

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 18-60 patients will be accrued for this study
