I've never heard "abreast with".
"Abreast of" means informed, up to date.
"In the loop" (or "in the loop about") is an informal phrase that means "abreast of", but it is used a little bit differently.
For example:
You're having problems? Please keep me abreast of the situation. If it gets too serious, maybe I can help.
You're having problems? Please keep me in the loop (about the situation). If it gets too serious, maybe I can help.
