Brief Summary

This phase II trial tests the accuracy of functional imaging (FFNP)-positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) to predict response to abemaciclib plus endocrine therapy. Abemaciclib is a drug used to treat certain types of hormone receptor positive (HR+), HER2 negative breast cancer. Abemaciclib blocks certain proteins, which may help keep tumor cells from growing. Endocrine therapy adds, blocks, or removes hormones that can cause cancer to grow. FFNP PET imaging is a form of x-ray that uses FFNP as an imaging agent that may provide more precise information about the location of tumors that "light up" with FFNP than a PET scan alone can provide.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Men or women with metastatic or locally advanced unresectable breast cancer * Histologically confirmed ER+ / HER2-negative, breast cancer who is a candidate for endocrine therapy with pathology from the primary tumor or metastatic/recurrent site. Based on American Society of Clinical Oncology/College of American Pathologists (ASCO CAP) Guidelines: ER+: \>= 1% of tumor cell nuclei to be immunoreactive. HER2-negative: HER2 of 0, 1+ by immunohistochemistry (IHC) or negative by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). * In the case of bone biopsy which could yield false negative ER or PR status in patients with historically HR+ disease, a patient may be eligible if the treating physician and the study chair both agree that the patient is a candidate for further endocrine therapy (ET) based treatment. * Note that baseline PR status by IHC does not influence results of deltaFFNP-PET imaging. * If premenopausal, the patient has to be treated with GnRH agonist for at le
