Brief summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of SKB264 in patients with unresectable locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who have failed second-line or above prior standard of care

Detailed description: The 2021 CSCO guidelines recommend treatment for patients with advanced TNBC as follows: Taxoides are generally preferred for patients who have failed anthracycline therapy in the past; For patients with anthracycline and taxane treatment failure, there is no standard therapy. Previously unused chemotherapy alone or in combination can be considered. However, the toxicity of combination chemotherapy is high and the survival benefit is limited, therefore, in consideration of the quality of life of advanced patients, single-agent chemotherapy is recommended as a priority.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

Subjects will not be included unless they meet all of the following criteria:

1. Males or females age 18 to 75 years old (inclusive) at the time of signing the informed consent form;
2. Histologically and/or cytologically confirmed TNBC based on pathology reports on recent biopsy specimens or other pathological samples (central laboratory confirmation is not required), including:

   1. Definition of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative: immunohistochemistry (IHC) of 0 or 1+; if HER is 2+ by IHC, negative HER2 expression must be confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH).
   2. Estrogen and progesterone receptor negative means that less than 1% of the cells express hormone receptors as indicated by IHC;
3. Patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who have received at least two lines of standard of care regimens, including:

   1. Any treatment received by the patients regardless of triple-negative state can be included as one of the standard of care regimens;
   2. For patients whose treatment regimens have been changed due to intolerability to toxicity, the intolerable regimens can be included as one of the prior standard of care regimens;
   3. For neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant chemotherapy, if relapse or disease progression to unresectable locally advanced or metastatic disease occurs during treatment or within 12 months after discontinuation of treatment (at least 2 cycles have been completed), it will be considered as one of the standard of care regimens. And the patients must also have received one therapy and have progressed on this therapy during the stage of unresectable locally advanced or metastatic disease;
   4. For patients with documented germline BRCA1/BRCA2 mutations, if they have been treated with an approved PARP inhibitor, then the PARP inhibitor can be considered as one of the 2 prior standard of care regimens required;
   5. Patients must have progressed on or were intolerable to the treatment during or after the last treatment prior to enrollment;
4. All patients must have been previously treated with taxanes; and those who have been treated with taxanes for at least 1 cycle and show contraindications or intolerability during or at the end of the cycle can be included, regardless of the disease stage during this treatment;
5. Patients must have at least one measurable lesion per RECIST v1.1 criteria; those with only skin or bone lesions cannot be included;
6. Subjects with a Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 1 with an expected survival of ≥ 12 weeks;
7. Subjects must provide tumor tissues or tissue specimens;
8. Subjects must have adequate organ and bone marrow function (no blood transfusion, recombinant human thrombopoietin, or colony stimulating factor therapy has been received within 2 weeks prior to the screening), which is defined as follows:

   1. Hematology: neutrophil count (NEUT) ≥ 1.5 × 109 /L; platelets (PLT) ≥ 100 × 109 /L; hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL;
   2. Liver function: aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≤ 2.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN); total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 × ULN; for patients with liver metastases, ALT and AST must be ≤ 5 × ULN, TBIL ≤ 2 × ULN; for patients with liver or bone metastases, ALP must be ≤ 5 × ULN;
   3. Albumin ≥ 3 g/dL;
   4. Renal function: creatinine clearance (Ccr) ≥ 60 ml/min (see Annex for Cockcroft-Gault formula);
   5. Coagulation function: international normalized ratio (INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time (PT) ≤ 1.5 × ULN;
9. Subjects must have recovered from all toxicities (except alopecia) due to prior treatments to ≤ grade 1 based on the assessment per CTCAE 5.0 criteria;
10. Subjects voluntarily participate in the study, sign the informed consent form, and will be able to comply with the protocol-specified visits and relevant procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

Subjects who meet any of the following criteria will be excluded:
