Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

1. Subjects aged ≥18 years (inclusive) and expected survival ≥ 12 weeks.

2. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.

3. Histologically and/or cytologically confirmed invasive locally advanced or metastatic
breast cancer that is incurable and unresectable;

4. HER2 expression (positive defined as: IHC 3+ or FISH+ and low expression defined as:
IHC2+and FISH- or IHC 1+); previous test results of HER2 expression provided by the
subjects (have to be confirmed by the investigator) and those obtained from the study
site or the central laboratory were both acceptable;

5. Genetic testing shows that the PAM(PI3K/Akt/mTOR)pathway related genes are mutated;
previous test results provided by the subjects (have to be confirmed by the
investigator) was both acceptable.

6. No more than 1 lines of chemotherapy received after relapse/metastasis. The number of
chemotherapy lines is restricted to chemotherapeutic drugs, and each chemotherapy
regimen is counted as a number of chemotherapy line, excluding targeted drugs and/or
endocrine drugs; the same maintenance treatment as the previous chemotherapy regimen
will not be counted.

7. Patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer have received treatment with
trastuzumab or its biosimilar (monotherapy or in combination with other drugs, such as
for ≥ 3 months in the adjuvant therapy phase, and ≥ 6 weeks in the post-relapse and
metastatic phase);

8. With at least one measurable lesion per RECIST v1.1.

9. Subjects may previously exposed to anthracyclines (e.g. doxorubicin, epirubicin)
and/or taxanes (e.g., paclitaxel, docetaxel) including:

1. has been pretreated in the adjuvant or neoadjuvant setting with anthracyclines
and/or taxanes before breast cancer relapsing;

2. has experienced treatment failure while receiving or after completing
anthracycline- and/or taxane- based chemotherapy;

3. not suitable for the choice of anthracycline- and/or taxane- based chemotherapy
as first-line treatment in the judgment of investigator.

10. Prior radiotherapy must have completed before randomization, with full recovery from
acute radiation side effects. An interval of less than 4 weeks after radiotherapy was
not allowed. Concurrent limited field radiation therapy (RT) is allowed. At least one
measurable lesion must be completely outside the radiation portal in accordance with
RECIST 1.1 guidelines.

11. At least 30 days from major surgery before randomization, with full recovery.

12. With Adequate Organ Function:

a. Bone marrow function: Hemoglobin ≥ 10 g/dL; Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5×10^9/L;
Platelets ≥ 100 × 10^9/L; b .Liver function (based on the normal values specified by
study site): Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × the upper limit of normal (ULN); Alanine
aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5 × ULN in the absence
of liver metastases, while ALT, AST and ALP ≤ 5 × ULN in the presence of liver
metastases; Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≤ 5 × ULN; c. Renal function (based on the
normal values specified by study site): Creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥40 mL/min as
calculated by Cockcroft-Gault formula,

13. Female patients of childbearing age have a negative pregnancy test and voluntarily
take effective and reliable contraceptive measures.

14. The patients voluntarily signed an informed consent form.

15. Able to understand study requirements, willing and able to comply with study protocol
and follow-up procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. History of, or current active cancer other than breast cancer, with the exception of
curatively resected non-melanomatous skin cancer, curatively treated cervical
carcinoma in situ, or other primary solid tumors curatively treated with no known
active disease present and no curative treatment administered for the last 3 years.

2. Patients with medical conditions that the only manifestation is hydrothorax, ascites,
bone lesions or other un-measurable diseases.

3. Subjects with symptoms suggesting central nervous system (CNS) involvement or
leptomeningeal metastases, any suspicious sins or symptoms of CNS involvement or
leptomeningeal metastases should be excluded by CT or MRI scans.

4. Other serious illness or medical conditions by the investigator during screening:

Clinically significant cardiac disease; Unstable diabetes; Uncontrolled hypercalcemia;
Clinically significant active infections (current or in the last two weeks). With
history of active tuberculosis; Patients with active hepatitis B or C (HBsAg positive
and HBV DNA positive; HCVAb positive).

5. Previous organ allograft.

6. Current peripheral neuropathy ≥grade 2 according to NCI version 4.0 criteria.

7. Concomitant hormonal therapy for MBC.

8. Ongoing anti-coagulation therapy.

9. Presence of effusion in the third space (including massive hydrothorax or ascites)
that cannot be controlled by drainage or other methods.

10. Subjects of reproductive potential who are pregnant, breast feeding or not willing to
use effective contraceptive precautions during the study and for at least one month
after the last dose of investigational product in the judgment of the investigator.

11. Patients with psychiatric disorder or other disease leading to incompliance to the
therapy.

12. An interval of less than 4 weeks between the last dose of previous chemotherapy and
randomization.

13. With prior treatment with T-DM1 or had participated in clinical studies with other
ADCs.

14. Treatment with any investigational drug within 30 days before the beginning of
treatment with study drug. Less than 30 days since receipt of any other
investigational product or device.

15. With known hypersensitivity or delayed-type hypersensitivity to certain components of
RC48-ADC.

16. Subjects who are estimated to have poor compliance with the clinical study or the
investigator determines that there are other factors not appropriate to participate in
the study.
