To be eligible for inclusion into this study, each patient must fulfil the following inclusion criteria:
1.Provide written informed consent before the initiation of any study-specific procedures
2.Male or female=18 years of age
3.Pathologically documented locally advanced (not amenable to surgical resection) or metastatic HER-2 negative breast cancer
4.Candidate to receive cycle 1 of treatment with single-agent taxane chemotherapy (paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel or docetaxel)
5.CRF score from 1 to 6 on a numeric rating scale (NRS) from 0 to 10, where 0 = no fatigue, 10 = worst possible fatigue, during the previous 24 hours and lasting for a minimum of 4 days
6.Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) 0-2
7.Life expectancy of at least 6 months as estimated by the investigator
8.Able to swallow and retain oral medication (intact tablet)
9.Adequate organ function (defined by the following parameters):
a) Serum creatinine < 140 µmol/L (< 1.6 mg/dL) or creatinine clearance > 60 mL/min
b) Serum hemoglobin = 11 g/dL; absolute neutrophil count = 1.5 x 109/L; platelets = 100 x 109/L
c) Serum bilirubin = upper limit of normal (ULN), except patients with Gilbert’s syndrome
d) Serum Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST) = 1.5 x ULN
e) Alkaline phosphatase = 2.5 x ULN
f) prothrombin time (PT) or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT, PTT) = ULN
10.No known hepatitis B virus (not due to immunization), hepatitis C virus, human immunodeficiency virus-I and -II positive status
11.If a female with childbearing potential, have a negative serum ß-human chorionic gonadotropin (ß-hCG) serum pregnancy test and use a highly effective method to avoid pregnancy for the duration of the trial and for at least 6 months after completion of docetaxel, paclitaxel or nab-paclitaxel therapy. Males of reproductive potential should use effective contraception during treatment and for 6 months after the last dose of docetaxel, paclitaxel or nab-paclitaxel

Exclusion Criteria

Patients who meet any of the following criteria are NOT eligible for inclusion in the study:
1.More than 1 prior systemic chemotherapy for advanced disease. Patients may have received hormone therapy and biological therapy (e.g. CDK4/6 inhibitors) either alone or in combination
2.Malabsorption syndrome or disease significantly affecting gastrointestinal function including but not limited to gastrectomy or gastric outlet obstruction
3.History or evidence of neurological or psychiatric disorder or any other concurrent medical condition or disease that, in the opinion of the investigator or Medical Monitor may influence understanding of study and informed consent procedures, would pose a risk to subject safety or would interfere with the study evaluation, procedures or completion
4.Positive severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) antigenic test performed through nasal swab
5.Treatment with any investigational agent within at least 28 days or 5 half-lives (whatever is shorter) prior to Visit 1, recovered from previous treatment toxicity to Grade1 or better
6.Brain metastases that are untreated or symptomatic, or require any radiation, surgery, or continued steroid therapy to control symptoms from brain metastases
7.Treatment with oral morphine greater than 60 mg a day or equivalent
8.Other causes of fatigue, including but not restricted to:
a) untreated hypothyroidism
b) pituitary disorder
c) insomnia
d) alcohol abuse
e) uncontrolled pain as defined by pain intensity greater than 3 on a NRS (0-10)
f) chronic >G2 anemia
g) uncontrolled cardiac disease or cardiovascular disorders
h) acute infections
i) major depressive disorder
j) uncontrolled neurological disorders
9.Concomitant use of other medications/dietary supplements for fatigue
10.Concomitant use of cannabidiol (CBD) or Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)
11.Any other invasive malignancy from which the patient has been disease-free for less than 5 years with the exception of curatively treated basal or squamous cell skin cancer

i. intolerance or hypersensitivity to Paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel, docetaxel or any other concomitant drug used in the study
ii.intolerance or hypersensitivity to ibuprofen or to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug
iii.intolerance or hypersensitivity to more than one medication belonging to the class of sulfonamides, such as sulfamethazine, sulfamethoxazole, sulfasalazine, nimesulide or celecoxib; hypersensitivity to sulphanilamide antibiotics alone (e.g. sulfamethoxazole) does not qualify for exclusion
iv. lactase deficiency, galactosaemia or glucose-galactose malabsorption
