aPharmacokinetics were characterized using a two-compartment model for the serum concentration-time data of individual animals (WinNonlin Professional Version 3.1, Pharsight Corp., Mountain View, CA, USA) using the Gauss–Newton algorithm and a reiterative weighting scheme (1/Ŷ). Serum pertuzumab concentrations found in the less-than-reportable range of the assay (LTR; <0.25 μg/mL) were not used for pharmacokinetic analysis, or in the group summary calculations. Data are ranges of group means
