  • Previous failure of first-line treatment for metastatic disease. For HR+/HER2- patients: at least received endocrine therapy combined with CDK4/6 inhibitors. TNBC patients at least received chemotherapy combined with PD-1 inhibitors (if PD-L1 CPS ≥1), or PARP inhibitor treatment (if germline BRCA mutations), except for TNBC patients with known germline BRCA mutations whom the attending physician deems them unable or unsuitable for PARP inhibitor treatment.
  • At least 1 measurable lesion as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria.
  • Adequate organ function including bone marrow, renal function, hepatic function, and cardiac reserve.
