  • Platelets ≥100000/mm3
  • Hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤3.0 × upper limit of normal (ULN) of the study site (or ≤5.0 × ULN in patients with liver metastases)

  • Part 1, Phase Ib
  • Subjects will be included regardless of EGFR and HER-2 Status
  • Part 2, Phase II
  • 12\. Provision of an unstained, archived tumor tissue sample in a quantity sufficient to allow for central analysis of EGFR and HER2 expression status.
  • 13\. Tumours with immunohistochemistry (IHC) evidence of expression of HER1 (at level of +, or ++, or +++) and HER-2 (at level of +, or ++, or +++) using standard criteria. Also, Subjects with HER-2 IHC (at level of +, or ++, or +++) and EGFR gene amplification/ mutation by NGS are included.

Exclusion

  • Subjects with malabsorption syndrome, diseases significantly affecting gastrointestinal function, has total gastrectomy, or difficulty in swallowing and retaining oral medications.
  • Has received radiotherapy for gastric cancer within 28 days before treatment or radiotherapy for bone metastases within 14 days before treatment
  • Positive test result for human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) antibody, Hepatitis B surface protein (HBs) antigen and HBV titer\>2000 IU/ml (10,000 copy/ml), or hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody positive result
  • Any unresolved Grade 2 (per CTCAE v4.0) toxicity from previous anti-cancer therapy at the time of enrollment such as neuropathy, except alopecia or anemia
  • Previously treated with varlitinib
  • Unable to comply to the study protocol
  • Have participated in a study involving another investigational drug within 21 days prior to the first dose of study drug
  • Has a history of drug hypersensitivity reactions or hypersensitivity to drugs chemically related to the study drug.
