Secondary outcome [4] 321617 0
Safety- The NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.03 (NCI CTCAE) will be used to classify and grade the intensity of adverse events after each treatment cycle.
AEs include the following;
- All suspected adverse drug or device reactions
- All reactions from drug or device – overdose, abuse, withdrawal, sensitivity, toxicity or
failure of expected pharmacological action (if appropriate)
- Apparently unrelated illnesses, including the worsening (severity, frequency) of pre-existing illnesses
- Injury or accidents.
- Abnormalities in physiological testing or physical examination that require clinical intervention or further investigation (beyond ordering a repeat examination)
- Laboratory abnormalities that require clinical intervention or further investigation (beyond
ordering a laboratory test).
- Any untoward event that occurs after the protocol-specified reporting period, which the Investigator believes may be related to the study drug or device.
Timepoint [4] 321617 0
Adverse events will be reported at baseline and assessed 4 weekly whilst on study treatment, and at the 30 Day safety visit.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. Adults (18 years or over) with metastatic or locally recurrent gastro-oesophageal cancer which:
a. has arisen in any primary gastro-oesophageal site (oesophago-gastric junction (GOJ) or stomach); and
b. is of adenocarcinoma or undifferentiated carcinoma histology , and
c. is evaluable according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST Version 1.1) by computed tomography (CT) scan performed within 21 days prior to randomisation. A lesion in a previously irradiated area is eligible to be considered as measurable disease as long as there is objective evidence of progression of the lesion prior to study enrolment; and
d. has failed or been intolerant to a minimum of 2 lines of prior anti-cancer therapy for recurrent/metastatic disease which must have included at least one platinum agent and one fluoropyrimidine analogue, Note: Neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy will be considered as first line treatment where people have relapsed or progressed within 6 months of completing treatment; Radiosensitising chemotherapy given solely for this purpose concurrent with palliative radiation will not be considered as a line of treatment. Ramucirumab monotherapy, or immunotherapy with a checkpoint inhibitor, will be considered a line of treatment.
e. HRE2- positive participants mush have received trastuzumab.
2. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1.
3. Ability to swallow oral medication.
4. Adequate bone marrow function (Platelets greater than or equal to 100x109/L; Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) greater than or equal to 1.5x109/L and Haemoglobin greater than or equal to 9.0g/dL).
5. Adequate renal function (Creatinine clearance greater than 50 ml/min) based on either the Cockcroft-Gault formula (Appendix 2), 24-hour urine or Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) scan; and serum creatinine less than or equal to 1.5 x Upper Limit of Normal (ULN).
6. Adequate liver function (Serum total bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN, and INR less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN, and Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) less than or equal to 2.5 x ULN (less than or equal to 5 x ULN for participants with liver metastases)).
Participants being treated with an anti-coagulant, such as warfarin or heparin, will be allowed to participate provided that no prior evidence of an underlying abnormality in these parameters exists.
7. Adequate cardiac function (Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) greater than or equal to 50% or above the lower limit of normal (LLN) for the Institution (whichever is lower).
Cardiac function should be assessed within 3 months prior to randomisation, but after completion of any anthracycline containing chemotherapy.
8. Willing and able to comply with all study requirements, including treatment, timing and/or nature of required assessments and follow-up.
9. Study treatment both planned and able to start within 7 days after randomisation (note: subjects randomised on a Friday should commence treatment no earlier than the following Monday)

c) superficial bladder tumours (T1a [Non-invasive tumour], and Tis[Carcinoma in situ]),
d) treated thyroid papillary cancer
19. Any significant active infection, including chronic active hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or HIV. Testing for these is not mandatory unless clinically indicated. Participants with known Hepatitis B/C infection will be allowed to participate providing evidence of viral suppression has been documented and the patient remains on appropriate anti-viral therapy.
