* Patient must have exhausted or refused established treatment options for the malignant disease, or is not eligible for established treatment options.

* Has a lesion amenable to pre-treatment and on-treatment biopsy and patient consents to both biopsies.

* Medically fit and willing to undergo all mandatory trial procedures.

* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0 or 1.

* Adequate organ function or bone marrow reserve as demonstrated at screening by the following laboratory values:

* Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5x10\^9/L (≥ 1.5x10\^3/μL, ≥ 1500/mm3); platelet count ≥ 100x10\^9/L (≥ 100x10\^3/μL, ≥ 100x10\^3/mm3), without the use of hematopoietic growth factors within 4 weeks of start of trial medication

* Haemoglobin ≥ 90 g/L (≥ 9.0 g/dL, ≥ 5.6 mmol/L)

* Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥60 ml/min/1.73m\^2 (as determined by the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula)

* Aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤ 3 x ULN if no demonstrable liver metastases, or otherwise ≤ 5 x ULN if transaminase elevation is attributable to liver metastases.

* Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN, except for patients with Gilbert's syndrome: total bilirubin ≤ 3.0 x ULN or direct bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN

* partial thromboplastin time (PTT) / activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) \<1.5 x ULN

* Patients ≥18 years of age or over the legal age of consent in countries where that is greater than 18 years at the time of signature of the informed consent form (ICF).

* Signed and dated written ICF in accordance with International Council for Harmonisation- Good Clinical Practice (ICH-GCP) and local legislation, obtained before performing any protocol related procedures that are not part of normal standard of practice care. Note: If a patient declines to participate in the voluntary biobanking component of the trial, he/she will not be excluded from other aspects of the trial.
