        Inclusion Criteria

          -  Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed Stage IV invasive breast
             cancer. Patients without pathologic or cytologic confirmation of metastatic disease
             should have unequivocal evidence of metastasis from physical examination or radiologic
             evaluation.

          -  Subjects must have at least one lesion that is not within a previously radiated field
             that is evaluable on computerized tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
             scan per RECIST version 1.1.46 If the subject's only evaluable disease is within a
             previously radiated field, it must have demonstrated progression since the time of
             radiation.

          -  Participants must have HR positive, HER2-negative breast cancer (ER>1% and/or, PR>1%,
             HER2-negative per ASCO CAP guidelines, 2013 resulted on the primary tumor and/or a
             metastatic lesion).

          -  Participants must have already received or been intolerant to at least two lines of
             hormonal therapies (including the adjuvant or metastatic setting) or be appropriate
             candidates for chemotherapy

          -  Prior chemotherapy: Participants are allowed to have received up to 2 prior lines of
             chemotherapy in the metastatic setting. If a prior chemotherapy was given for less
             than 1 cycle, it will not be counted as a prior line. The last dose of chemotherapy
             must be ≥14 days prior to initiation of study therapy. Participants should be
             adequately recovered from acute toxicities of prior treatment. No prior treatment with
             eribulin mesylate is allowed.

          -  Prior biologic therapy: The last dose of biologic or investigational therapy must be
             ≥21 days prior to initiation of study therapy.

             initiation of study therapy. However, continuation of ovarian suppression is allowed.

          -  Prior radiation therapy: Participants may have received prior radiation therapy in
             either the metastatic or early-stage setting. Radiation therapy must be completed ≥14

          -  aPTT/PTT ≤1.5 times ULN unless participant is receiving anticoagulant therapy, as long
             as PT or PTT is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants

          -  The effects of eribulin mesylate and pembrolizumab on the developing human fetus are
             unknown. Pre-clinical data was suggestive of a teratogenic effect of eribulin
             mesylate. For these reasons women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use
             adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) for
             the duration of study participation and 4 months after the last dose of eribulin
             mesylate and/or pembrolizumab. Note: abstinence is acceptable if this is the usual
             lifestyle and preferred contraception for the subject.

               -  Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her
                  partner is participating in this study, the treating physician and principal
                  investigator should be informed immediately.

               -  While on the study, women must not breastfeed.

               -  Subjects of childbearing potential are defined as those who have not been
                  surgically sterilized and/or have had a menstrual period in the past year

          -  Female subjects of childbearing potential, as defined above, must have a either a
             negative urine or a negative serum pregnancy test within seven (7) days of first dose
             of pembrolizumab. If a urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a
             serum pregnancy test will be required.

          -  Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

        Exclusion Criteria

          -  Chemotherapy-related or radiation-related toxicities that have not resolved to Grade 1
             severity or lower, except for stable sensory neuropathy (≤ Grade 2) and alopecia.

          -  Participants who are receiving any other investigational agents.

          -  Previous treatment with eribulin mesylate or any anti-PD-1, PD-L1, or PD-L2 agent or
             participation in any MK-3475 Merck studies.

          -  History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic
             composition to eribulin mesylate or pembrolizumab.

          -  Known brain metastases that are untreated, symptomatic, or require therapy to control
             symptoms. Participants with previously diagnosed brain metastases are eligible if they
             have completed treatment at least 4 weeks prior to registration, are neurologically
             stable and absence of new neurologic symptoms for the last 4 weeks prior to study
             entry, and have recovered from the effects of radiotherapy or surgery. Any
             corticosteroid use for brain metastases must have been discontinued without the
             subsequent appearance of symptoms for ≥2 weeks before the first study drug. Treatment
             for brain metastases may have included whole brain radiotherapy, radiosurgery, or a
             combination as deemed appropriate by the treating physician.

          -  Uncontrolled intercurrent illness, including, but not limited to uncontrolled
             hypertension, unstable angina pectoris, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, congestive
             heart failure-New York Heart Association Class III or IV, active ischemic heart
             disease, myocardial infarction within the previous six months, uncontrolled diabetes
             mellitus, gastric or duodenal ulceration diagnosed within the previous 6 months,
             chronic liver or renal disease, severe malnutrition or psychiatric illness/social
             situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.

          -  Clinically significant electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormality, including a marked
             baseline prolonged QT/QTc ([QT interval/corrected QT interval], eg, a repeated
             demonstration of a QTc interval >500 ms).

          -  Medcial condition that requires chronic systemic steroid therapy or on any other form
             of immunosuppressive medication. For example, participants with autoimmune disease
             that requires systemic steroids or immunosuppression agents should be excluded.
             Replacement therapy (eg., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid
             replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a
             form of systemic treatment.

          -  History or evidence of active, noninfectious pneumonitis that required treatment with
             steroids.

          -  Participants known to be positive for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV),
             Hepatitis B antigen (HepBsAg), or Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA. HIV-positive
             participants on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the
             potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with Pembrolizumab and/or eribulin
             mesylate. In addition, these participants are at increased risk of lethal infections.

          -  Individuals with a history of a second malignancy are ineligible except for the
             following circumstances. Individuals with a history of other malignancies are eligible
             if they have been disease-free for at least 5 years and are deemed by the investigator
             to be at low risk for recurrence of that malignancy. Individuals with the following
             cancers are eligible if diagnosed and treated within the past 5 years: cervical cancer
             in situ, and non-melanoma cancer of the skin. Patients with other cancers diagnosed
             within the past 5 years and felt to be at low risk of recurrence should be discussed
             with the study sponsor to determine eligibility.

          -  Has received a live vaccine within 28 days of planned start of study therapy.
