This is an umbrella study evaluating the efficacy and safety of multiple treatment
combinations in participants with metastatic or inoperable locally advanced breast cancer.

The study will be performed in two stages. During Stage 1, four cohorts will be enrolled in
parallel in this study:

Cohort 1 will consist of Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive participants who have
received no prior systemic therapy for metastatic or inoperable locally advanced
triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) (first-line [1L] PD-L1+ cohort).

Cohort 2 will consist of participants who had disease progression during or following 1L
treatment with chemotherapy for metastatic or inoperable locally-advanced TNBC and have not
received cancer immunotherapy (CIT) (second-line [2L] CIT-naive cohort).

Cohort 3 will consist of participants with locally-advanced or metastatic HR+, HER2-negative
disease with PIK3CA mutation who may or may not have had disease progression during or
following previous lines of treatment for metastatic disease (HR+cohort).

Cohort 4 will consist of participants with locally-advanced or metastatic HER2+ /HER2-low
disease with PIK3CA mutation who had disease progression on standard-of-care therapies (HER2+
/HER2-low cohort).

In each cohort, eligible participants will initially be assigned to one of several treatment
arms (Stage 1). In addition, participants in the 2L CIT-nave cohort who experience disease
progression, loss of clinical benefit, or unacceptable toxicity during Stage 1 may be
eligible to continue treatment with a different treatment combination (Stage 2), provided
Stage 2 is open for enrollment.

This phase II trial studies how well the combination of avelumab with liposomal doxorubicin with or without binimetinib, or the combination of avelumab with sacituzumab govitecan works in treating patients with triple negative breast cancer that is stage IV or is not able to be removed by surgery (unresectable) and has come back (recurrent). Immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors like avelumab require activation of the patient's immune system. This trial includes a two week induction or lead-in of medications that can stimulate the immune system. It is our hope that this induction will improve the response to immunotherapy with avelumab. One treatment, sacituzumab govitecan, is a monoclonal antibody called sacituzumab linked to a chemotherapy drug called SN-38. Sacituzumab govitecan is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of tumor cells, known as TROP2 receptors, and delivers SN-38 to kill them. Another treatment, liposomal doxorubicin, is a form of the anticancer drug doxorubicin that is contained in very tiny, fat-like particles. It may have fewer side effects and work better than doxorubicin, and may enhance factors associated with immune response. The third medication is called binimetinib, which may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth, and may help activate the immune system. It is not yet known whether giving avelumab in combination with liposomal doxorubicin with or without binimetinib, or the combination of avelumab with sacituzumab govitecan will work better in treating patients with triple negative breast cancer.

This phase II trial investigates how well sacituzumab govitecan and atezolizumab work in preventing triple negative breast cancer from coming back (recurrence). Atezolizumab is a protein that affects the immune system by blocking the PD-L1 pathway. The PD-L1 pathway controls the bodys natural immune response, but for some types of cancer the immune system does not work as it should and is prevented from attacking tumors. Atezolizumab works by blocking the PD-L1 pathway, which may help the immune system identify and catch tumor cells. Sacituzumab govitecan is a monoclonal antibody, called sacituzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called SN-38. Sacituzumab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as TROP2 receptors, and delivers SN-38 to kill them. Giving sacituzumab govitecan and atezolizumab may work as a treatment for residual cancer in the breast or lymph nodes.
