Approximately 36 DLT-evaluable subjects will be enrolled in this study. The locations of the study will be in the United States, Australia, Europe and Switzerland. The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety of intrahepatic injection (directly into the liver) of talimogene laherparepvec in combination with intravenously administered atezolizumab in subjects with triple negative breast cancer and colorectal cancer with liver metastases.
The Screening period is 28 days prior to study enrollment. This study has 2 Cohorts. Cohort 1: Triple Negative Breast Cancer and Cohort 2: Colorectal Cancer. These cohorts will enroll in parallel. There will be a Safety Follow-up period and a Long Term Follow-up period. Drug Administration: The participants will receive the study drugs in cycles. If the participants are found to be eligible to take part in this study, they will receive talimogene laherparepvec as an injection into the hepatic (liver) metastatic sites on Day 1 of each cycle along with receiving atezolizumab by intravenous infusion on Day 1 of each cycle. Each cycle is 21 days for 6 cycles. There is an option for an additional 6 cycles after the first 6 intra-hepatic cycles. After the first radiographic assessment at week 10, if all injectable liver lesions have been injected but the 4.0 mL maximum volume has not been used, injection of clinically assessed non-hepatic cutaneous, subcutaneous, and nodal tumor lesions with or without ultrasound guidance will be permitted. Liver lesions should be prioritized over cutaneous, subcutaneous and nodal lesions. Treatment will continue until a participant experiences a DLT (Dose Limiting Toxicity) evaluated in the DLT period (which is 2 cycles from initial dose), has CR (Complete Response), has need for an alternative anticancer therapy or experiences a safety concern. Study Visits: Cycle 1 to Cycle 12 - The participant will have a physical exam along with vital signs and ECOG (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) performance level assessment. Blood (about 2 Tablespoons) will be drawn for routine tests and to check the immune system. Adverse events and medications taken will be reviewed on each cycle.Biomarkers will be taken on cycles 1, 2, 3, 6, and safety FU. Tumor Markers (special lab tests associated with the cancer, such as particular proteins) will be completed will be take on cycles 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, every 3 cycles and SFU. Central lab tests will be completed on cycles 1, 2, 3, and 6 and safety FU. Cycle 1 Archived (prior stored) tumor sample will be obtained. Also, a liver tumor biopsy will be completed at Cycles 1, 3 and 6. Response Assessments will be completed at Screening and again at Cycles 4, 7, 10, 13 and every 3 cycles. Throughout the trial a swab for Herpetic tumor will be obtained within 3 days of the event. Cycle 1 to 12- The exposure to talimogene laherparepvec by the subject's healthcare provider and household member caregiver will be reviewed. Cycles 1, 3, 6-Liver tumor biopsy will be completed. Cycles 4, 7, 10, 13 and every 3 cycles -Response assessments will be completed by radiographic and clinical tumor assessment. Length of Treatment: A maximum for 12 cycles of talimogene laherparepvec are allowed during the study. The participant may continue taking the study drug for as long as the doctor thinks it is in their best interest. The participant will no longer be able to take the study drug if the disease gets worse, or if they are unable to follow study directions. Safety Follow-up Visit: Safety Follow-up visit will be performed about 30 days after the last dose of study treatment. The participant will have a physical exam, have vital signs taken, assessment of ECOG status and have weight measured. Adverse events will be assessed as well as the concominant medications. Routine bloodwork and tumor markers will be taken. Exposure to talimogene laherparepvec by the healthcare providers of the participant and/or close contacts will be assessed. Long-Term Follow-up Visits: Participants will be followed for survival every 12 weeks from the date of the safety follow-up visit until approximately 24 months after the last subject is enrolled. Subsequent cancer treatments will be collected as part of the long-term follow-up survival assessment. This is an investigational study. The study doctor can explain how the study drugs are designed to work.

Number of Participants Who Experienced a Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT)
Toxicities were graded using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0. A DLT was considered as any of the below, if judged by the investigator to be related to either treatment: * Grade ≥ 4 neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count \[ANC\] \< 500/μl) lasting ≥ 7 days * Grade ≥ 3 febrile neutropenia * Grade ≥ 4 thrombocytopenia * Grade ≥ 4 anemia * Grade ≥ 4 rash * Serious herpetic events * Grade ≥ 3 symptomatic hepatic toxicities that do not resolve to Grade ≤ 2 within 48 hours or Grade ≥ 3 asymptomatic hepatic toxicities that do not resolve to Grade ≤ 1 within 3 weeks of onset * Grade ≥ 3 non-hematologic, non-hepatic organ toxicity * Grade 5 toxicity (ie, death) * Any other intolerable toxicity leading to permanent discontinuation of treatment DLTs were to occur within the DLT evaluation period, defined as the period between the initial 10\^6 PFU/mL dose and 3 weeks following the initial 10\^8 PFU/mL dose or the start of Cycle 3, whichever occurred first.
Time frame: From Day 1 up to the start of Cycle 3 (each cycle is 21 days)
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
ORR was defined as the incidence rate of either a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on modified immune-related response criteria simulating Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors(irRC-RECIST) criteria. A CR was a complete disappearance of all lesions and a PR was a decrease in tumor burden 30% or more relative to baseline.
Time frame: Every 12 weeks (± 28 days) up to approximately 3.5 years.
Best Overall Response (BOR)
BOR was defined as the best visit response based on modified irRC-RECIST criteria: * CR: a complete disappearance of all lesions * PR: a decrease in tumor burden 30% or more relative to baseline * Stable disease (SD): neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for CR or PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD) * PD: an increase in tumor burden of 20% or more and at least 5 mm absolute increase relative to nadir (minimum recorded tumor burden) * Unevaluable (UE): any lesion present at baseline which was not assessed or was unable to be evaluated leading to an inability to determine the status of that particular tumor

Duration of Response (DOR)
DOR was defined as the time from the date of an initial response that is subsequently confirmed to the earlier of PD per modified irRC RECIST or death. Participants who have not ended their response at the time of analysis were censored at the last evaluable tumor assessment.
Time frame: Every 12 weeks (± 28 days) up to approximately 3.5 years.
Lesion Level Response in Injected Tumor Lesions
Responses for individual tumor lesions for hepatic and non-hepatic tumors injected wtih treatment were assessed for the following responses: * Lesion complete response rate (L-CRR): Disappearance of lesion * Lesion partial response rate (L-PRR): Decrease in tumor burden 30% or more relative to baseline * Lesion objective response rate (L-ORR): Either a L-CRR or L-PRR based on modified irRC-RECIST criteria
Time frame: Every 12 weeks (± 28 days) up to approximately 3.5 years.
Lesion Level Response in Uninjected Tumor Lesions
Responses for individual tumor lesions for hepatic and non-hepatic tumors that were not injected with treatment were assessed for the following responses: * L-CRR: Disappearance of lesion * L-PRR: Decrease in tumor burden 30% or more relative to baseline * L-ORR: Either a L-CRR or L-PRR based on modified irRC-RECIST criteria
Time frame: Every 12 weeks (± 28 days) up to approximately 3.5 years.
Durable Response Rate (DRR)
DRR was defined as the percentage of participants with an objective response with a DOR of at least 6 months.
Time frame: Every 12 weeks (± 28 days) up to approximately 3.5 years.
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
DCR was defined as the percentage of participants that have a best overall response in one of the following categories: CR/PR/SD.
Time frame: Every 12 weeks (± 28 days) up to approximately 3.5 years.
Progression-free Survival (PFS)
PFS was defined as time from first dose to the date of first of confirmed disease progression per modified irRC-RECIST criteria, or death (whichever occurred first). Results were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Time frame: Every 12 weeks (± 28 days) up to approximately 3.5 years.
Overall Survival (OS)
OS was defined as the time from the date of first dose to the date of death from any cause. Results were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
