When I was going through treatment 2.5 years ago my onc had the opinion that 9 weeks with a taxane was the most important part of the treatment and the 1 year of followup herceptin was purely a money maker for the drug company. Mind you this was just her opinion and she was clear on that due to no studies at the time of the 9 week trial. Having told me that she did let me continue on herceptin until it affected my heart due to the fact that it was the standard of care at the time.
