Office Open XML file format (.doc(x|m), .xls(x|m), etc., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_Open_XML) are ZIP files, and those with macros typically contain an OLE2 file named vbaProject.bin. This signature appears as though it would match all standard Open XML files that contain macros. Examples of false positives should not be necessary to remove this signature:

$ sigtool --find-sigs=Win.Trojan.Toa-5368540-0
[daily.cdb] Win.Trojan.Toa-5368540-0:CL_TYPE_ZIP:*:vbaProject\.bin$:*:*:*:*:*:

$ echo "Win.Trojan.Toa-5368540-0:CL_TYPE_ZIP:*:vbaProject\.bin$:*:*:*:*:*:" | sigtool --decode-sig
VIRUS NAME: Win.Trojan.Toa-5368540-0
CONTAINER TYPE: CL_TYPE_ZIP
CONTAINER SIZE: ANY
FILENAME REGEX: vbaProject\.bin$
COMPRESSED FILESIZE: ANY
UNCOMPRESSED FILESIZE: ANY
ENCRYPTION: IGNORED
