Patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer characterized by the absence of HER2 expression and the presence of ER with/without PR expression. 3. Female patients may be post-menopausal, pre-menopausal or peri-menopausal. Male and Pre- and peri-menopausal females may be enrolled if continuously treated with ovarian suppression therapy (use LHRHa at least starting from C1D1) for the duration of study participation. 4.

HR+/HER2- BC patients must meet all the following criteria to join this study: 1. Relapsed locally advanced (LABC) or metastatic (mBC) disease; AND 2. Have received 1 to 2 prior lines of systemic treatments for LABC or mBC(at least one line was ET). If disease relapse during adjuvant therapy or relapse within 12 months from completion of adjuvant endocrine therapy, the adjuvant therapy will be counted as 1 line), including: i. Endocrine therapies including AIs and/or SERMs (1 or 2 lines) with or without a CDK4/6 inhibitor (up to 1 therapy); OR ii. A chemotherapy (monotherapy or combination therapy, at most 1 line only), with 1 additional line of endocrine therapy . 6. For phase Ib part, patients must have at least one lesion that meets the definition of measurable disease by RECIST 1.1 criteria; for phase III, have measurable disease and/or at least 1 lytic or mixed (lytic + sclerotic) bone lesion that can be assessed by RECIST 1.1 criteria; patients with sclerotic/osteoblastic bone lesions only in the absence of measurable disease are not eligible (Appendix 2). 7. In the Phase Ib part, Patients must provide informed consent for the procedures and the tests for PIK3CA/AKT/PTEN alterations and ESR1 mutations. The biomarkers will be tested retrospectively by gene sequencing tests using archival tumor sample (preferably within 18 months/78 weeks) or from peripheral blood or from a tumor biopsy sample. Formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue blocksare preferred. In phase III, blood sample is mandatory for this test. 8. In Phase III, subjects need to provide blood sample during the screening period for PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN test, which will be conducted in the central laboratory. Only patients with PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alterations could include. 9. Patients with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Score of 0 or 1. 10. Patients who have adequate organ function as defined. 11. Patients without a pre-existing diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM) who have a fasting glucose ≤ 126 mg/dL (or ≤ 7.0 mmol/L); or patients with type 2 diabetes who have a fasting glucose ≤ 167 mg/dL (or ≤ 9.3 mmol/L) AND glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≤ 8%. Patients with DM type 1 or patients with DM type 2 requiring insulin or ≥21 anti-abetic medications for glycemic control are excluded. 12. Patients with a life expectancy of 24 weeks or more based on investigator's assessment. 13. Patients who have recovered from adverse events associated with pre-study medical, radiation and surgical treatments to ≤ Grade 1, excluding stable symptoms (e.g., alopecia, peripheral sensory neuropathy, skin hyperpigmentation, dysgeusia, etc.). 14. Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative pretreatment serum pregnancy test. 15. Female patients of childbearing potential must agree to use effective contraception from enrollment to 1 year after discontinuation from the last dose of this study treatment. 16. Patients who are able to swallow and retain oral medication and without gastrointestinal diseases to interfere with drug absorption. 17. Patients must have no contraindications to fulvestrant. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients who had a recent major surgery that required hospitalization for longer than 48 hours (\< 8 weeks from scheduled treatment starting date) or have used IV antibiotics for the treatment of systemic infection (\< 2 weeks from scheduled treatment starting date). 2. Patients who have additional known malignancies that are progressing or have required active treatments within 3 years of scheduled treatment starting date. (Note: Patients with basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, that have undergone potentially curative therapy are not excluded). 3. Patients who have a history of seizure or conditions that may predispose them to seizure and require anti-epileptic medications, or patients who have brain arteriovenous malformation, or intracranial masses that are causing edema or clinical symptoms. 4. Patients who have known active CNS metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis. (Note: Patients with previously treated brain metastases may participate provided that they are radiologically stable (i.e., without evidence of progression for at least 4 weeks by repeated imaging performed during study screening), clinically stable and without requirement of steroid treatment for at least 14 days prior to schedule treatment starting date. 5. Patients who had prior treatment with fulvestrant or other selective estrogen receptor degraders (SERDs), or any PI3K/AKT/mTOR inhibitors, or any CDK4/6 inhibitors in phase I, II study. 6. Patients who had the following conditions within 6 months (26 weeks) of scheduled treatment starting date: New York Heart Association congestive heart failure classification III to IV, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, arterial or venous thromboembolic events (e.g., pulmonary embolism, cerebrovascular accident including transient ischemic attacks), or serious cardiac arrhythmia associated with significant cardiovascular impairment as determined by the investigator. 7. Patients with QT interval corrected by the Frederica's correction formula (QTcF) \> 470 msec(average value), unless the prolonged QT interval is due to (right or left) bundle branch block and/or pacemaker rhythm. If wide QRS complex is present, cardiology consultation is required to assess the risk for Torsade de Pointes. Note: QTcF = QT/(RR\^0.33) . 8. Patients who have uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure \> 160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \> 100 mmHg under anti-hypertensive treatment). Note: Patients with a history of hypertension are allowed, provided that blood pressure is controlled to within these limits by anti-hypertensive treatment. 9. Patients with active Hepatitis B infection \[defined as HBsAg (+) and HBV-DNA ≥ 200 IU/ml (1000 copy/ml)\] or active Hepatitis C virus \[defined as HCV antibody positive and HCV RNA (qualitative) test positive\]. 10. Patients with known HIV seropositivity who has 1 of the following: 1. Not receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy 2. Receiving antiretroviral therapy that may interfere with the study drug (consult the Sponsor/Medical Monitor for review of medication prior to enrollment) 3. CD4 count \< 350 based on a test within 3 months of the screening visit 4. An acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-defining opportunistic infection within 6 months (26 weeks) of the start of study screening 11. Patients who have a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratory abnormality that in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results of the study, interfere with the participant's participation for the full duration of the study, or is not in the best interest of the participant to participate. 12. Patients who have a known psychiatric or substance abuse disorder that would interfere with the participant's ability to cooperate with the requirements of the study. 13. Patients who are receiving medications that are sensitive substrates of CYP3A4, OATP1B1, or BCRP with low therapeutic index. Please see related section for a list of these prohibited medications. 14. Patients who are currently pregnant or breastfeeding or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the study, starting with the screening visit through 1 year after the last dose of study treatment. 15. Patients who have known cirrhosis with a Child-Pugh status of B and C. 16. Patients who are ineligible for endocrine therapy (e.g., visceral crisis, inflammatory breast cancer, uncontrolled pleural or abdominal fluid drainage ≥4 times within one month before planned administration).
