Purpose
The aim of part 1 of this study is to determine the optimal biological dose (OBD) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for WX-554 and the recommended dose/dose schedules for the chronic treatment in part 2. The aim of part 2 is to further determine the safety and tolerability of chronic treatment with WX-554.

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Part 1: Determination of the Optimal Biological Dose (OBD) by the assessment of ERK phosphorylation (pERK) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and assessment of TNF-alpha in plasma. [ Time Frame: Cycle 1 (21 days) ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Part 1: Determination of the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) for WX-554 by the evaluation of DLTs in 3-6 patients at the end of 1 treatment cycle [ Time Frame: Cycle 1 (21 days) ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Part 2: To further determine the safety and tolerability by evaluating the incidence and severity of adverse events and serious adverse events (as per CTCAE grading), changes in hematology and chemistry values, vital signs, ECGs. [ Time Frame: expected average of 3-6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Assessment of PK variables maximum observed concentration (Cmax), minimum observed concentration (Cmin), time at which Cmax was present (tmax), Area Under Curve (AUC) [ Time Frame: PK profile on day 1 and day 8 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Assessment of ERK phosphorylation (pERK) in PBMC and tissue, assessment of TNF-alpha in plasma after oral intake of the OBD/MTD. [ Time Frame: expected average of 3-6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Tumour response evaluation using RECIST 1.1 [ Time Frame: expected average of 3-6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
