Inclusion Criteria: * Female participants who are at least 18 years of age on the day of signing informed consent with histologically confirmed diagnosis of triple negative breast cancer or ER+/Her2 will be enrolled in this study. * Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 1. Evaluation of ECOG is to be performed within 30 days prior to the date of allocation/randomization * Histologically or cytologically-confirmed TNBC (defined as ER \<5%, PR \<5%, HER- 2-neu 0-1+ by IHC or FISH-negative or per MD discretion). * Histologically of cytologically-confirmed ER+ breast cancer, defined as ER 1-100% and HER-2/neu 0-1+ by IHC or FISH-negative * Metastatic or recurrent TNBC. * Metastatic or recurrent ER+ breast cancer * For mTNBC patients, prior receipt of ICI with progression and/or PDL1-negative. PDL-1 status is not used to determine eligibility among mER+BC patients * Note: PDL1-status may be determined on tissues from either primary or mTNBC. Determination of PD-L1 status by any prototype assays is acceptable. PD-L1 status is required or archival tissue must be readily available for testing during screening if status was not previously determined. * The participant (or legally acceptable representative if applicable) provides written informed consent for the trial. * Have measurable disease based on RECIST 1.1. There should be at least one radiographically-confirmed non-bone metastatic lesion that will not undergo RT and is measurable based on RECIST and suitable for repeated measurements. * Lesions situated in a previously irradiated area are considered measurable if progression has been demonstrated in such lesions. * No more than 3 prior lines of systemic therapy (including conventional cytotoxics, targeted therapies, biologics, or other invesigational systemic treatments) for inoperable/recurrent or metastatic disease in the TNBC cohort. A line of treatment in this instance refers to any systemic therapy directed at metastatic TNBC and which was discontinued due to disease progression. Treatment discontinued due to toxicity will not be counted. Systemic therapy previously delivered for hormone-receptor positive or Her2+ breast cancer (that has now switched to TNBC subtype) will not count as a prior line of treatment. Any number of prior lines of treatment for mER+BC are allowed. * At least one tumor site for which palliative RT is considered clinically appropriate. The site under consideration can be a metastatic site, or uncontrolled primary/locally recurrent disease in the breast/chest wall or in the nodes. Prior radiotherapy to the target site is allowed. Investigators should remain within departmental radiotherapy for normal tissue; exceptions should be discussed with the PI. * Have provided archival tumor tissue sample or newly obtained core or excisional biopsy of a tumor lesion. Formalin- fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue blocks are preferred to slides. Newly obtained biopsies are preferred to archived tissue. Newly-obtained is defined as a specimen obtained up to 30 days prior to initiation of treatment on Day 1 of pembro. (Note: PI can waive this requirement at his discretion if specimen collection is deemed unfeasible). * A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant (see Appendix C), not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies: 1. Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) as defined in Appendix C OR 2. A WOCBP who agrees to follow the contraceptive guidance in Appendix C during the treatment period and for at least one month after the last dose of study treatment. * Have adequate organ function as defined in the following table (Table 2). Specimens must be collected within 30 days prior to the start of study treatment.

A 3-4 week washout is preferred when reasonable. * Note: in the event that 72 hours have elapsed between the screening pregnancy test and the first dose of study treatment, another pregnancy test (urine or serum) must be performed and must be negative in order for subject to start receiving study medication. * Has received prior systemic anti-cancer therapy including investigational agents within 4 weeks (preferred) or a minimum of 2 weeks prior to the start of study treatment. * Note: Participants must have recovered from all AEs due to previous therapies to ≤ Grade 1 or baseline. Participants with ≤ Grade 2 neuropathy may be eligible. * Note: If participant received major surgery, they must have recovered adequately from the toxicity and/or complications from the intervention prior to starting study treatment. * Has received prior radiotherapy within 2 weeks of start of study treatment.
