HER2 negative tumors by immunohistochemistry (IHC 0 or 1+) or fluorescent/chromogenic in situ hybridization (FISH- or CISH-) 8. Hormone receptors status known, 9. No metastases, 10. Have adequate organ function. Specimens must be collected within 10 days prior to the start of study treatment. 11. Adequate hematologic function: absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 x 109/L AND platelets ≥ 100 x 109 AND Hb ≥ 9.0 g/dL or ≥5.6 mmol/L, Criteria must be met without erythropoietin dependency and without packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusion within last 2 weeks. 12. Adequate liver function: total bilirubin ≤1.5 ×ULN OR direct bilirubin ≤ULN for participants with total bilirubin levels \>1.5 × ULN AND - ASAT ≤ 2.5 ULN AND ALAT ≤ 2.5 ULN, 13. Adequate kidney function: serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 ULN or creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min for participant with creatinine levels \>1.5 × institutional ULN, Creatinine clearance (CrCl) should be calculated per institutional standard. 14. International Normalized Ratio (INR) or Prothrombin Time (PT) ≤ 1.5 ULN unless subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy, as long as PT or TCA is within therapeutic range of intended use of the anticoagulants, 15. Adequate cardiac function: left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50% (isotopic or ultrasound methods), 16. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant (see Appendix 3), not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies: 1. Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) as defined in Appendix 3 OR 2. A WOCBP who agrees to follow the contraceptive guidance in Appendix 3 during the treatment period and for at least 12 months after the last dose of cyclophosphamide and 4 months after the last dose of pembrolizumab, whichever come last. Note: Abstinence is acceptable if this is the established and preferred contraception for the subject 17. A male participant must agree to use a contraception as detailed in Appendix 3 of this protocol during the treatment period and for at least 6 months after the last dose of study treatment and refrain from donating sperm during this period (corresponding to time needed to eliminate any study treatments plus an additional 120 days (a spermatogenesis cycle) for study treatments with risk of genotoxicity at any dose). Exclusion Criteria: 1. Has metastatic breast cancer, 2. Has HER2-positive breast cancer, 3. Has bilateral breast cancer 4. Prior allogeneic stem cell or solid organ transplantation 5. A WOCBP who has a positive serum pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to randomiza-tion 6. Is currently participating in or has participated in a study of an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study treatment, Note: Participants who have entered the follow-up phase of an investigational study may participate as long as it has been 4 weeks after the last dose of the previous investigational agent. 7. Has known active CNS disease or carcinomatous meningitis. 8. Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving systemic steroid therapy (in dosing exceeding 10 mg daily of prednisone equivalent) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of study drug, 9. Has a known history of active TB (Bacillus Tuberculosis), 10. Has severe hypersensitivity (≥Grade 3) to pembrolizumab and/or any of its excipients, 11. If subject received major surgery, they must have recovered adequately from the toxicity and/or complications from the intervention prior to starting therapy, 12. Has a known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment within the past 3 years. Note: Participants with basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma in situ (e.g. breast carcinoma, cervical cancer in situ) that have undergone potentially curative therapy are not excluded. 13. Has active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years (i.e. with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs). Replacement therapy (e.g. thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment, 14. Has a history of (non-infectious) pneumonitis that required steroids or has current pneumonitis, 15. Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy. 16. Has a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratory abnormality that might confound the results of the trial, interfere with the subject's participation for the full duration of the trial, or is not in the best interest of the subject to participate, in the opinion of the treating investigator, 17. Has known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with coopera-tion with the requirements of the trial, 18. Is pregnant or breastfeeding, or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the trial, starting with the screening visit through 120 days after the last dose of trial treatment, 19. Has received prior therapy with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti PD L2 agent or with an agent directed to another stimulatory or co-inhibitory T-cell receptor (e.g., CTLA-4, OX 40, CD137)., 20. Has a known history of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) (HIV 1/2 antibodies), 21. Has known history of Hepatitis B (e.g., HBsAg reactive) or known active Hepatitis C virus infection (e.g., HCV RNA \[qualitative\] is detected) 22. Has received a live vaccine within 30 days prior to the first dose of study drug. Examples of live vaccines include, but are not limited to, the following: measles, mumps, rubella, varicella/zoster (chicken pox), yellow fever, rabies, Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), and typhoid vaccine. Seasonal influenza vaccines for injection are generally killed virus vaccines and are allowed; however, intranasal influenza vaccines (e.g., FluMist®) are live attenuated vaccines and are not allowed.
