• To fulfill the requirement of HER2- disease, a breast cancer must not demonstrate, at initial diagnosis or upon subsequent biopsy, overexpression of HER2 by either immunohistochemistry or in-situ hybridization.

• Have recurrent, locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic breast cancer with disease progression following anti-estrogen therapy.

• Have a performance status of 0 to 2 on the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group scale.

• Have discontinued all previous therapies for cancer (including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and endocrine therapy) for at least 21 days for myelosuppressive agents or 14 days for nonmyelosuppressive agents prior to receiving abemaciclib, and recovered from the acute effects of therapy (until the toxicity resolves to either baseline or at least Grade 1) except for residual alopecia and peripheral neuropathy.

• Have adequate organ function, including:

• Hematologic: absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5 × 10⁹/Liter (L), platelets ≥100 × 10⁹/L, and hemoglobin ≥8 grams/deciliter. Participants may receive erythrocyte transfusions to achieve this hemoglobin level at the discretion of the treating physician. Initial treatment should not begin earlier than the day after the erythrocyte transfusion.

• Hepatic: bilirubin ≤1.5 × the upper limit of normal (ULN) and alanine aminotransferase ≤3 × ULN.

• Have progressive central nervous system metastasis that require immediate local therapy including (but not limited to) whole-brain radiotherapy, stereotactic radiosurgery, surgical resection, or intrathecal chemotherapy.

• Have a history of progressive disease during prior therapy with a cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4&6 inhibitor.

• Have had major surgery within 14 days of the initial dose of abemaciclib.

• Have a personal history of any of the following conditions: syncope of either unexplained or cardiovascular etiology, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, or sudden cardiac arrest.
