Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerance of entinostat administered orally as a single agent in a weekly dosing schedule. Additionally, this study will characterize the pharmacokinetics parameters in Chinese postmenopausal women with advanced breast cancer. And to define the profile of adverse events, including laboratory parameters in these subjects

Exclusion criteria
* Patients have known central nervous system metastasis except patients who have terminated steroid treatment for brain metastasis or spinal cord compression with remain disease stable for at least 1 month. * Previous treatment with entinostat or any other histone deacetylase inhibitor (Valproic acid, Chidamide etc). * Known allergy to any ingredients of entinostat and other drugs in the same class. * Women who are pregnant or breast-feeding (premenopausal). For women of childbearing potential, agreement to use a medically approved contraception measures (such as the intrauterine device (IUD), birth control pills or condoms) and to continue its use for the duration of study treatment and for 3 months after the last dose of study treatment. * Had received chemotherapy/radiotherapy or other anticancer therapy during the study or within 4 weeks of start of study treatment. Patients must completely recovered from all adverse events due to previous agents administered before 4 weeks (except alopecia). * Major surgery within 28 days of start of study treatment. * Patients have serious or uncontrolled systemic disease (such as severe liver dysfunction, severe renal dysfunction, poorly controlled diabetes, poorly controlled acute infections).
