TDM1 for HER2+ brain mets reocurrence?

Has anyone tried TDM1 after brain mets reocurrence? My initial treatment was WBR 9 months ago, the number of mets is large, currently I am only controlling the extracranial disease with Herceptin & Perjeta. I have not done Lapatinib + Capecitabine yet and have not looked into IT Herceptin yet (as I see it is only for lepto-meningeal mets). Thank you for all the guidance and help!
