Fulfils criteria for previous treatment of breast cancer\*: Safety run-in: * Relapse during a single regimen of adjuvant endocrine therapy with either anastrozole or letrozole or * Progression during first line endocrine therapy with a non-steroidal Aromatase Inhibitor (AI) for advanced breast cancer\*\*. Co-administration of a targeted agent with the non-steroidal AI is permitted providing all toxicities have recovered to CTCAE Grade 1 or below 1 prior regimen of chemotherapy in the advanced setting is permitted. Chemotherapy administered in the adjuvant setting is permitted Phase IIa: o Progressing or progression at some point during breast cancer treatment on endocrine therapy with a non-steroidal AI.\*\*\* Co-administration of a targeted agent with the non-steroidal AI is permitted providing all toxicities have recovered to CTCAE Grade 1 or below. * Prior chemotherapy in the advanced and adjuvant setting is permitted. * Prior treatment with exemestane with or without everolimus is permitted. * Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) positive breast cancer patients should have been offered at least one prior line of HER2 directed therapy \*\*Advanced breast cancer: metastatic disease or locally advanced disease which is not amenable to treatment with curative intent \*\*\*anastrozole or letrozole does not have to be the most recent therapy 8. Safety run-in: At least one lesion (measurable and/or non-measurable) that can be accurately assessed by CT/MRI/plain x-ray at baseline and follow up visits Phase IIa: At least one lesion ≥ 10mm in the longest diameter at baseline (or ≥ 15mm in the short axis for nodal disease) that can be accurately measured with CT/MRI at baseline and is suitable for accurate repeated measurements. Patients with bone only metastatic cancer must have a lytic or mixed lytic-blastic lesion that can be accurately assessed by CT or MRI. 9. Safety run-in: Study entry must be preceded by a minimum of 21 days of anastrozole or letrozole treatment Phase IIa: No set duration of anastrozole or letrozole treatment prior to study entry. Exclusion Criteria 1. Treatment with any of the following: 1. Safety run-in: more than 1 regimen of endocrine therapy for advanced breast cancer 2. previous exposure to any FGFR inhibitor 3. Safety run in: more than 1 prior regimen of chemotherapy for advanced breast cancer. 4. potent inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4 or CYP2D6, or substrates of CYP3A4 within 2 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment (3 weeks for St John's Wort) 5. major surgery within 4 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment 6. radiotherapy with a wide field of radiation within 4 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment; or radiotherapy with a limited field of radiation for palliation within 2 weeks before the first dose of study treatment 2. With the exception of alopecia, any unresolved toxicities from prior therapy greater than CTCAE grade 1 at time of starting study 3. Spinal cord compression or brain metastases unless asymptomatic, treated and stable and not requiring steroids for at least 4 weeks prior to start of study treatment 4. Any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic diseases or active infection 5. Any of the following cardiac criteria: 1. Resting corrected QT interval (QTc) \>470 ms 2. Any clinically important abnormalities in rhythm, conduction or morphology of resting ECG e.g. complete left bundle branch block, third degree heart block 3.
