Treatment of Brain Metastases From Breast Cancer With Eribulin Mesylate

Inclusion Criteria:

* Female with histologically confirmed breast cancer.
* Patients must have evidence of metastatic disease (non measurable disease is eligible).
* Radiologically confirmed metastatic brain lesion by MRI.

* Patients must be neurologically stable and with stable dose steroids and anticonvulsants for at least 1 week prior to obtaining the baseline MRI of the brain, and/or at least 1 week prior to beginning study treatment.
* No presence of uncontrolled systemic disease or tumor related complication which, in opinion of the investigator, might restrict life expectancy to less than 3 months.
* Patients may not be on any cytotoxic chemotherapy or hormonal treatment for breast cancer during protocol treatment. Trastuzumab is allowed in HER2 positive patients).

  * Calculated creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥ 30mL/min (Cockcroft-Gault method)
  * Patients with normal, mild or moderate hepatic dysfunction are eligible.
  * Calcium \<10.1 mg/dL (corrected to serum albumin as follows: Corrected Calcium = (0.8 x (4 - patient albumin)) + serum Ca
