This research study is studying a drug called GDC-0084 as a possible treatment for HER2-Positive Breast Cancer. The drugs involved in this study are: * GDC-0084 * Trastuzumab (Herceptin®)
This research study is a Phase II clinical trial. Phase II clinical trials test the safety and effectiveness of an investigational intervention to learn whether the intervention works in treating a specific disease. "Investigational" means that the intervention is being studied. The FDA (the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) has not approved GDC-0084 as a treatment for any disease. Trastuzumab is a targeted therapy approved by the FDA to be used alone or in combination with a chemotherapy drug to treat HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. GDC-0084 has been shown to stop the activity of a protein called PI3-kinase. This action blocks a pathway in the body that cancer cells commonly use to grow and divide. Trastuzumab is called a "targeted therapy" because it works by attaching itself to specific receptors on the surface of breast cancer cells, known as HER2 receptors. When targeted therapies attach to HER2 receptors, the signals that tell the cells to grow are blocked and the cancer cell may be marked for destruction by the immune system. This process allows trastuzumab to help slow or stop the growth of the breast cancer. In this research study, the investigators are looking to see how your cancer responds to the combination of GDC-0084 and Trastuzumab.

Objective Response Rate in the CNS
Defined as the proportion of patients with partial or complete response in the CNS, per RANO-BM criteria (Complete response \[CR\]: disappearance of all CNS target lesions sustained for at least 4 weeks, no new lesions, no corticosteroids, stable or improved clinically; Partial response \[PR\]: At least 30% decrease in the sum of longest diameter of CNS target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum, sustained for at least 4 weeks, no new lesions, stable to decreased corticosteroid dose, stable or improved clinically; Progressive disease \[PD\]: At least a 20% increase in the sum of longest diameter of CNS target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study; Stable disease \[SD\]: Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum of long diameter of CNS target lesions while on study; Objective response = CR+PR)
Time frame: Assessed every 2 cycles for the first 4 cycles, and then every 3 cycles thereafter, until CNS progression or initiation of new anticancer therapy, up to ~34 weeks.
Correlation Between Inhibition of p-4EBP1 in Resected Brain Tumor Tissue and Intracranial Response in the Corresponding Patient-derived Xenograft (PDX) Models of BCBM
to correlate on-treatment p4EBP1 levels in the resected brain tumor tissue collected from patients to intracranial response to GDC-0084/trastuzumab and survival in the PDX model generated from the same patient
Time frame: 2 Years
Clinical Benefit Rate in the CNS
Defined as the proportion of participants with CNS response or stable disease in the CNS \>=18 or 24 weeks, per RANO-BM criteria (Complete response \[CR\]: disappearance of all CNS target lesions sustained for at least 4 weeks, no new lesions, no corticosteroids, stable or improved clinically; Partial response \[PR\]: At least 30% decrease in the sum of longest diameter of CNS target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum, sustained for at least 4 weeks, no new lesions, stable to decreased corticosteroid dose, stable or improved clinically; Progressive disease \[PD\]: At least a 20% increase in the sum of longest diameter of CNS target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study; Stable disease \[SD\]: Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum of long diameter of CNS target lesions while on study; Clinical benefit 18 weeks = CR+PR+SD\>=18 weeks; Clinical benefit 24 weeks = CR+PR+SD\>=24 weeks)

Time frame: Assessed every 2 cycles for the first 4 cycles, and then every 3 cycles thereafter, until CNS progression or initiation of new anticancer therapy, up to ~34 weeks
Clinical Benefit Rate in Extra-CNS
Defined as the proportion of participants with non-CNS response or stable disease in non-CNS lesions \>=18 or 24 weeks, per RECIST 1.1 criteria (Complete response \[CR\]: Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial response \[PR\]: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum; Progressive disease \[PD\]: At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study; Stable disease \[SD\]: Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters on study; Clinical benefit 18 weeks = CR+PR+SD\>=18 weeks; Clinical benefit 24 weeks = CR+PR+SD\>=24 weeks)
Time frame: Assessed every 2 cycles for the first 4 cycles, and then every 3 cycles thereafter, until CNS progression or initiation of new anticancer therapy, up to ~34 weeks

Duration of CNS Response
Defined as the time measurement criteria are met for CR or PR in the CNS (whichever is first recorded) until the first date that progressive disease is objectively documented
Time frame: Assessed every 2 cycles for the first 4 cycles, and then every 3 cycles thereafter, until CNS progression or initiation of new anticancer therapy, up to ~34 weeks.
Bi-compartmental Progression-free Survival
Defined as the time from registration to the first occurrence of progression in the CNS (per RANO-BM criteria), the body (per RECIST 1.1 criteria), or death, whichever comes first. Patients free from progression in the CNS or body are censored at the date of last disease evaluation
Time frame: Assessed every 2 cycles for the first 4 cycles, and then every 3 cycles thereafter, until CNS progression or initiation of new anticancer therapy, up to ~34 weeks.
Overall Survival
Defined as the time from registration to death from any cause. Patients still living are censored at the date last known alive
