Participant gender:
Female
Summary
Primary objective: To evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS) for EOC202 combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel versus albumin-bound paclitaxel alone in treatment of the patients with HR positive, HER2 negative advanced breast cancer (response evaluation criteria in solid tumors, RECIST 1.1); Secondary objectives: 1. To evaluate other efficacy variables, such as objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), clinical benefit rate (CBR) and overall survival (OS), for EOC202 combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel versus albumin-bound paclitaxel alone in treatment of HR positive, HER2 negative advanced breast cancer; 2. To evaluate the safety of EOC202 combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel; 3. To evaluate the immunogenicity of EOC202 combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel; 4. To evaluate the change level of pharmacodynamic (PD) markers (Interferon-γ, CXCL-10). Exploratory objectives: To explore the correlation of baseline soluble MHC-II ligands in blood (lymphocyte activation gene-3 (Lag-3) and fibrin related antigen (FGL-1)) with safety, efficacy, PD and anti-drug antibody (ADA) in subjects in EOC202 combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel group.

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

1. Understanding and voluntarily signing the informed consent form;

2. Female, age ≥ 18 years and <65 years;

3. Histopathologically and molecular pathologically confirmed HR positive, HER2 negative
breast cancer (based on the latest test result);

Notes:

Positive HR is defined as positive estrogen receptor (ER), negative or positive
progesterone receptor (PR) (≥1% positive stained cells will be regarded as positive
receptor); Negative HER2: negative immunohistochemical (IHC) result (0, 1+), or IHC
result 2+ and negative result of in situ hybridization (ISH) amplification;

4. Progression after endocrine therapy, being suitable for late-stage rescue
chemotherapy, including the following conditions (meeting any one of them):

Primary endocrine resistance: recurrence less than two years after adjuvant endocrine
therapy, or progression of disease less than 6 months after late-stage 1st-line
endocrine therapy. For the patients with primary endocrine resistance, no use of other
systematic therapy except endocrine therapy in relapsed/progressive period (the
combined use of CDK4/6 inhibitor, Everolimus or HDAC inhibitor with endocrine therapy
is allowed). There were no more than 2 lines of systemic therapy for advanced disease
previously.

Secondary (acquired) endocrine resistance: recurrence more than 2 years after adjuvant
endocrine therapy and within one year after discontinuation of it, or progression of
disease ≥6 months after late-stage 1st-line endocrine therapy. For the patients with
secondary (acquired) endocrine resistance, at least 1 line but no more than 3 lines of
endocrine therapy for advanced disease are recommended (the combined use of CDK4/6
inhibitor, Everolimus or HDAC inhibitor with endocrine therapy is allowed), and the
number of lines will not be calculated for adjuvant endocrine therapy. There were no
more than 3 lines of systemic therapy for advanced disease previously.

5. No use of chemotherapy for recurrent/metastatic breast cancer;

6. At least one extracranial measurable lesion (RECIST 1.1);

7. Peripheral blood absolute monocyte count (AMC) <0.25×109/L (tested by local
laboratory, it is allowed to be repeated once if the AMC is ranged from
0.25~0.35×109/L at screening);

8. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status score 0-1;

9. Expected survival ≥3 months;

10. Recovery of toxicity induced by previous therapy (except alopecia) to grade 1
(National Cancer Institute - Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version
5.0 [NCI CTCAE v5.0]) or normal level;

11. Good organ function within 1 week prior to the first dose of study drug:

Hematology: no transfusion of platelet or any growth factor within 7 days prior to the
screening visit, white blood cell count ≥3×109/L, absolute neutrophil count (ANC)
≥1.5×109/L, platelet count ≥100×109/L, hemoglobin ≥90 g/L; Hepatic function: serum
total bilirubin ≤1.5× upper limit of normal (ULN), or total bilirubin ≤3×ULN in case
of Gilbert's syndrome; aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase
(ALT) ≤2.5×ULN, or AST and ALT≤5×ULN in case of hepatic metastasis; Renal function:
serum creatinine ≤1.5×ULN.

12. The female subjects of childbearing potential must have negative pregnancy test within
1 week prior to the first dose of study drug, and they and their spouses agree to take
effective contraceptive measures during the study and within 6 months after the last
dose

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Known uncontrollable or symptomatic central nervous system metastasis, including brain
metastasis or meningeal metastasis, or symptoms suggestive of cancerous meningitis,
leptomeningeal disease and/or progressive growth. Patients with a history of central
nervous system metastasis or spinal cord compression are allowed to be enrolled if
they have received definite local treatment (e.g., radiotherapy, surgical therapy),
have discontinued anticonvulsant drugs and steroids for at least 4 weeks prior to the
first dose of study drug and have stable clinical manifestations;

2. Previous use of high-dose chemotherapy plus hemopoietic stem cell transplantation;
