About This Anatomic Stage IV Breast Cancer AJCC v8 Study in Portland

This phase II trial investigates how well 177Lu-DOTATATE works in treating patients with breast cancer that is stage IV or has come back (recurrent). 177Lu-DOTATATE may shrink or destroy the tumor or circulating breast cancer stem cells if they show evidence of the SSTR2. 177Lu-DOTATATE is a targeted therapy that uses DOTATATE, linked to a radioactive agent called 177Lu. DOTATATE attaches to tumor cells with SSTR2 and delivers 177Lu to kill them. Giving 177Lu-DOTATATE may help decrease the number and size of tumors and the number of circulating cancer stem cells in patient's blood for the treatment of patients with breast cancer positive for SSTR2.

Female and male patients with breast cancer will be included in the study
Participants must have experienced disease progression after at least two lines of standard treatment modalities and/or one prior line of cytotoxic chemotherapy (not just endocrine therapy). Specifically, patients must have received or declined the following therapies: a) Hormone receptor positive (HR+)/HER2: endocrine therapy and CDK4/6 inhibitor (i); b) HER2+: trastuzumab, pertuzumab, T-DM1 and tucatinib; c) Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC): chemotherapy, immunotherapy (in PD-L1+ tumors). Patients can be consented if they are foregoing treatments known to confer survival advantage
Participants must have at least one measurable site of disease as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version (v1).1 that is amendable to biopsy
Confirmed presence of SSTR based on \> 50% of lesions with DOTATATE uptake of 68Ga DOTATATE equivalent to the liver
Participants must have fully recovered from the acute toxic effects of all prior treatment to grade 1 or less, except alopecia and =\< grade 2 neuropathy which are allowed
Participant must have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status =\< 2
Participant must consent to undergo a pre-treatment screening biopsy for enrollment
Hemoglobin \>= 8.0 g/dL with no blood transfusion in the past 28 days (measured within 28 days prior to administration of study treatment)
Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>= 2.0 x 10\^9/L (measured within 28 days prior to administration of study treatment)

Total bilirubin =\< 3 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) (measured within 28 days prior to administration of study treatment)
Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) =\< 2.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (unless liver metastases are present in which case they must be =\< 5 x ULN) (measured within 28 days prior to administration of study treatment)
Serum albumin \>= 3.0 g/L, unless prothrombin time or international normalized ratio (INR) value is within the normal range (measured within 28 days prior to administration of study treatment)
Participants must have serum creatinine =\< 1.7 mg/dL, or creatinine clearance estimated of \>= 51 mL/min using the Cockcroft-Gault equation or based on a 24 hour urine test (measured within 28 days prior to administration of study treatment)
Female participants of childbearing potential (FOCBP) must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to receiving the first dose of study medication. If the urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required
FOCBP agree to use a highly-effective method of contraception starting with the first dose of study therapy up to 7 months after the last dose of study therapy
FOCBP are those who are not proven postmenopausal. Postmenopausal is defined as:
