* Sodium
* Potassium
* Total calcium
* In case of patients of child bearing potential:
Negative serum pregnancy test at baseline (within 7 days prior to randomization) and agreement to remain abstinent (if it is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle) or use single or combined non-hormonal contraceptive methods that result in a failure rate of \< 1% per year during the treatment period and for at least 7 months after the last dose of study treatment
Exclusion criteria:
Patients will be excluded from the study for any of the following reasons:
* History of hypersensitivity reactions attributed to trastuzumab, pertuzumab, ribociclib or to other components of drug formulation
* Mandatory need for cytostatic treatment at time of study entry based on clinical judgment and national/international treatment guidelines
* Known CNS metastases
* Any concurrent severe, uncontrolled systemic disease, social or psychiatric condition that might interfere with the planned treatment and with the patient's adherence to the protocol
* Progression on prior Pertuzumab therapy
* Treatment with Pertuzumab within the last 12 months
* Prior treatment with any mTOR- or CDK4/6-inhibitor
* Treatment with any other investigational agents during trial
* Known hypersensitivity to lecithin (soya) or peanuts
* Life expectancy \< 6 months
* Patients with pre-existing grade ≥2 peripheral neuropathy are excluded from taxane-based chemotherapy
* History of serious cardiac disease, including but not confined to:
* history of documented heart failure or systolic dysfunction (LVEF \< 50%)
* high-risk uncontrolled arrhythmias i.e., atrial tachycardia with a heart rate ≥100/min at rest, significant ventricular arrhythmia (ventricular tachycardia) or higher-grade AV-block (second degree AV-block Type 2 \[Mobitz 2\] or third degree AV-block)
* angina pectoris requiring anti-anginal medication
* clinically significant valvular heart disease
* evidence of transmural infarction on ECG
* poorly controlled hypertension (e.g., systolic \>180 mm Hg or diastolic \>100 mm Hg)
* any other cardiac condition, which in the opinion of the treating physician would make this protocol unreasonably hazardous for the patient
* Dyspnea at rest or other diseases that require continuous oxygen therapy
* Patients with poorly controlled diabetes or with evidence of clinically significant diabetic vascular complications
* Patients with known infection with HIV, hepatitis B virus, or hepatitis C virus
* Male patients
* Pregnant, lactating or women of childbearing potential without a negative pregnancy test (serum) within 7 days prior to randomization, irrespective of the method of contraception used
* Medical or psychological conditions that would not permit the subject to complete the study or sign informed consent
* Participation in another clinical study within the 30 days before registration
* Legal incapacity or limited legal capacity
