             negative breast cancer. HER2 status should reflect the most recent biopsy results.
             Note: HER2 negative breast cancer is defined according to the American Society of
             Clinical Oncology (ASCO)/College of American Pathologists (CAP) guidelines 2013 for

             disease is considered measurable and a soft tissue component is present and can be
             biopsied..

             woman of childbearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or
             barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry, for the duration of
             study participation, and for at least 6 months following last infusion of cirmtuzumab.
             Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this
             study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.

          -  Existing neuropathy must be no greater than Grade 1.

             in bone metastasis.

          -  CNS metastases are allowed as long as the metastases are asymptomatic, have been
             treated with radiation, and have been stable for > 6 weeks off steroids.

        EXCLUSION CRITERIA:

          -  Patient is currently receiving chemotherapy or has received another chemotherapy

          -  Patient has known, untreated and/or symptomatic central nervous system (CNS)
             metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis.

          -  Patient had disease that was refractory to paclitaxel in the neoadjuvant setting
             and/or developed metastatic breast cancer within 6 months of neoadjuvant or adjuvant
             taxane chemotherapy.

          -  Patient has had major surgery within 3 weeks prior to enrollment.

          -  Patient has severe and/or uncontrolled medical disease(s) (i.e., myocardial infarction

          -  The patient has known acute or chronic hepatitis B or C.

          -  The patient has a history of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar
             chemical or biologic composition to paclitaxel.
