Inclusion Criteria

Age • Participant must be ≥ 18 years at the time of screening.

Type of Participant and Disease Characteristics

• Inoperable or metastatic HR+, HER2-negative breast cancer
• Progressed on and not suitable for endocrine therapy per investigator assessment and treated with 1 to 2 lines of prior chemotherapy in the inoperable/metastatic setting. Participant must have documented progression on their most recent line of chemotherapy.
• Eligible for one of the chemotherapy options listed as ICC (eribulin, capecitabine, vinorelbine, gemcitabine), per investigator assessment.
• ECOG PS of 0 or 1, with no deterioration over the previous 2 weeks prior to day of first dosing.
• At least 1 measurable lesion not previously irradiated that qualifies as a RECIST 1.1. Note: Participants with bone-only metastases are not permitted.
• Participants with a history of previously treated neoplastic spinal cord compression, or clinically inactive brain metastases, who require no treatment with corticosteroids or anticonvulsants, may be included in the study, if they have recovered from the acute toxic effect of radiotherapy. A minimum of 2 weeks must have elapsed between the end of radiotherapy and study enrolment.

• Adequate organ and bone marrow function within 7 days before day of first dosing as follows:

  • Hemoglobin: ≥ 9.0 g/L.
  • Absolute neutrophil count: 1500/mm3.
  • Platelet count: 100000/mm3. • Total bilirubin: ≤ 1.5 × ULN if no liver metastases; or ≤ 3 × ULN in the presence of documented Gilbert's syndrome (unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia) or liver metastases at baseline.
  • ALT and AST: ≤ 3 × ULN for AST/ALT; however, if elevation is due to liver metastases, ≤ 5.0 × ULN is allowed.
  • Calculated creatinine clearance: ≥ 30 mL/min as calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault equation (using actual body weight).
• LVEF ≥ 50% by either an echocardiogram or MUGA within 28 days of first dosing.

• Has had an adequate treatment washout period before Cycle 1 Day 1, defined as:

  • Major surgery: ≥ 3 weeks.
  • Radiation therapy including palliative radiation to chest: ≥ 4 weeks (palliative radiation therapy to other areas ≥ 2 weeks).
  • Anticancer therapy including hormonal therapy: ≥ 3 weeks (for small molecule targeted agents: ≥ 2 weeks or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer).
  • Antibody-based anticancer therapy: ≥ 4 weeks with the exception of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) inhibitors (eg, denosumab for the treatment of bone metastases).
  • Immunotherapy (non-antibody-based therapy): ≥ 2 weeks or 5 times the terminal elimination T½ of the agent, whichever is longer.
  • Chloroquine/hydroxychloroquine: > 14 days.
• Have available a FFPE tumor sample (block preferred, or a minimum of 20 freshly cut slides), at the time of screening. Note: Sample collection in China will comply with local regulatory approval.
• Minimum life expectancy of 12 weeks at screening.

Sex

• Contraceptive use by men or women should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies; (oral estrogens are not permitted).

Reproduction

• Negative pregnancy test (serum) for women of childbearing potential
• Female participants must be post-menopausal for at least 1 year, surgically sterile, or using one highly effective form of birth control. Female participants must refrain from egg cell donation and breastfeeding while on study and for at least 7 months after the last dose of study intervention. Non-sterilized male partners of a woman of childbearing potential must use a male condom plus spermicide throughout this period.
• Male participants who intend to be sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential must be surgically sterile or using a highly effective method of contraception from the time of screening throughout the total duration of the study and the drug washout period (at least 4 months after the last dose of study intervention) to prevent pregnancy in a partner. Male participants must not donate or bank sperm during this same time period. Not engaging in heterosexual activity (sexual abstinence) for the duration of the study and drug washout period is an acceptable practice if this is the preferred usual lifestyle of the participant; however, periodic or occasional abstinence, the rhythm method, and the withdrawal method are not acceptable methods of contraception. Female partners of male participants are allowed to use HRT for contraception.

Informed Consent

• Capable of giving signed informed consent.
• Provision of signed and dated written Optional Genetic Research Information informed consent prior to collection of sample for optional genetic research that supports Genomic Initiative.

Exclusion Criteria

Medical Conditions

• Any evidence of diseases which, in the investigator's opinion, makes it undesirable for the participant to participate in the study or that would jeopardize compliance with the protocol.
• History of another primary malignancy except for malignancy treated with curative intent with no known active disease within 3 years before the first dose of study intervention and of low potential risk for recurrence. Exceptions include basal cell carcinoma of the skin and squamous cell carcinoma of the skin that has undergone potentially curative therapy, adequately resected non-melanoma skin cancer, curatively treated in situ disease, or other solid tumors curatively treated.
• Persistent toxicities caused by previous anticancer therapy (excluding alopecia), not yet improved to CTCAE Version 5.0 Grade ≤ 1 or baseline. Note: participants may be enrolled with some chronic, stable Grade 2 toxicities (defined as no worsening to > Grade 2 for at least 3 months prior to first dosing and managed with SoC treatment) which the investigator deems related to previous anticancer therapy.
• Uncontrolled infection requiring IV antibiotics, antivirals, or antifungals; suspected infections (eg, prodromal symptoms); or inability to rule out infections.
• Known active or uncontrolled hepatitis B or C infection; or positive for hepatitis B or C virus based on the evaluation of results of tests for hepatitis B (HBsAg, anti-HBs, anti-HBc, or HBV DNA) or hepatitis C (HCV antibody or HCV RNA) infection at screening.
• Known HIV infection that is not well controlled.
• Uncontrolled or significant cardiac disease, including myocardial infarction or uncontrolled/unstable angina within 6 months prior to C1D1, CHF (New York Heart Association Class II to IV), uncontrolled or significant cardiac arrhythmia, or uncontrolled hypertension (resting systolic blood pressure > 180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure > 110 mmHg).
