You may qualify if…

• Has histologically or cytologically confirmed triple negative breast carcinoma that is either metastatic (stage IV of the TNM classification) or locally recurrent and not amenable to local curative treatment.
• Evidence of measurable, locally recurrent or metastatic disease based on imaging studies within 28 days before the first dose of study drug.
• Has received at least 1, but no more than 2, prior lines of systemic therapy for locally recurrent and/or metastatic disease.
• If participant has a history of treated asymptomatic CNS metastases they are eligible, provided they meet all of the following criteria: participant has measurable disease outside CNS; participant does not have metastases to midbrain, pons, medulla or spinal cord; participant is not on corticosteroids as therapy for CNS disease (anticonvulsants at a stable dose are allowed); participant has not had whole-brain radiation within 6 weeks prior to study enrollment; participant has stable CNS disease as demonstrated by at least 4 weeks of stability between the last intervention scan and the study screening scan.
• ECOG performance status of 0 or 1.
• Has acceptable, applicable laboratory parameters.
• Female participants must not be pregnant; willing to use 2 methods of birth control/abstinence if applicable through 120 days after the last dose of study drug.
• Experienced resolution of toxic effect(s) of the most recent prior anti-cancer therapy to Grade <1 (except alopecia or neuropathy).
• Able to understand and give written informed consent and comply with study procedures.

You may not qualify if…

• Prior anti-cancer monoclonal antibody (mAb) within 4 weeks prior to enrollment or who has not recovered from AEs due to mAb agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier.
• Prior chemotherapy within 3 weeks, targeted small molecule therapy or radiation therapy within 2 weeks prior to enrollment, or who has not recovered (i.e., ≤Grade 1 at enrollment) from AEs due to a previously administered agent.
• Received transfusion of blood products or administration of colony stimulating factors within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of treatment.
• Currently participating and receiving study therapy or has participated in a study of an investigational agent and received study therapy or used an investigational device within 4 weeks of the first dose of study drug.
