Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

1. Ability to understand and the willingness to provide written informed consent for the
trial

2. Female or male and >/= 18 years of age

3. Histological confirmation of invasive breast cancer. All histologic subtypes are
eligible.

4. Clinical diagnosis of IBC and amenable to breast surgery Cohort 1, de novo stage IV
(safety run-in) Cohort 2, stage III or de novo stage IV

5. Known ER, PR, and HER2 status defined as triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) TNBC as
defined as ER and PR ≤ 10% by immunohistochemistry, and HER2-negative (as per ASCO/CAP
guidelines, defined as IHC 0 or 1+, or FISH ration < 2.0 or HER2 copy number < 6.0)

6. ECOG performance status of 0-1.

7. Adequate organ function as determined by the following laboratory values:

- ANC >/= 1,500/mcL

- Platelets >/= 100,000/mcL

- Hgb >/= 10g/dL

- Creatinine levels <1.5 x ULN

- Total bilirubin
- ALT and AST
8. Subjects of childbearing potential should be willing to use effective methods of birth
control or be surgically sterile or abstain from heterosexual activity for the course
of the study through at least 4 months after the last dose of study drug. Subjects of
childbearing potential are those who have not been surgically sterilized or have not
been free from menses for >1 year. Effective methods of birth control include 1) Use
of hormonal birth control methods: pills, shots/injections, implants (placed under the
skin by a health care provider), or patches (placed on the skin); 2) Intrauterine
devices (IUDs); 3) Using 2 barrier methods (each partner must use 1 barrier method)
with a spermicide. Males must use the male condom (latex or other synthetic material)
with spermicide. Females must choose either a Diaphragm with spermicide, or Cervical
cap with spermicide, or a sponge (spermicide is already in the contraceptive sponge).

9. Negative serum or urine pregnancy test for subjects of childbearing potential.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Any other previous or concurrent antitumor therapies for the current cancer diagnosis
event.

2. Known diagnosis of immunodeficiency, which defined as on chronic systemic steroid
therapy or any other forms of immunosuppressive therapy in excess of the equivalent of
prednisolone 10 mg once daily.

3. History of malignancy (other than breast cancer) within 5 years, except basal cell
carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, melanoma in-situ or in situ cervical
cancer that has undergone potentially curative therapy.

4. Known active central nervous system metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis.

5. Known significant cardiovascular disease, such as a history of myocardial infarction,
acute coronary syndrome, Congestive heart failure (CHF) New York Heart Association
(NYHA) Class II-IV, or history of CHF NYHA Class III or IV.

6. Ejection fraction < 50% by ECHO or MUGA.

7. Known active or uncontrolled autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment within
the past 3 months or a documented history of clinically severe autoimmune disease, or
a syndrome that requires systemic steroids chronic corticosteroid use or
immunosuppressive agents. Subjects with vitiligo or resolved childhood asthma/atopy
would be an exception to this rule. Subjects that require intermittent use of
bronchodilators or local steroid injections would not be excluded from the study.
Subjects with hypothyroidism stable on hormone replacement or Sjorgen's syndrome will
not be excluded from the study.

History of (non-infectious) pneumonitis that required steroids or has a current
diagnosis of pneumonitis.

8. An active infection requiring systemic therapy.

9. Gastrointestinal tract disease or defect or previous history of colitis or
inflammatory bowel disease including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

10. Known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with cooperation
with the requirements of the trial.

11. Known history of Human Immunodeficiency Virus.

12. Known active Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C

13. Received a live vaccine within 30 days before the first dose of trial treatment.
