Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Patients with incurable, locally advanced or metastatic prostate cancer where a policy of intermittent hormone therapy has been decided. Who have specific clinical parameters.

* Patients with histologically and/or cytologically confirmed advanced solid tumour for whom no standard effective therapy is available and a rationale for use of VAL201 exists.
* Patients with incurable, locally advanced or metastatic prostate cancer where a policy of intermittent hormone therapy has been decided. These patients must also have the following:

1. Rising PSA on three samples (once non-castrate levels established); each over 2 weeks apart, with the last two values being greater than 2 ng/mL. Higher than and at least 25% over the nadir.
2. Absent or very mild prostate cancer-related symptoms.
3. No plans for any therapy for prostate cancer in the next two months.
* Adult patients defined by age greater than 18 years at time of consent.
* Ability to give written, informed consent prior to any study-specific Screening procedures, with the understanding that the consent may be withdrawn by the patient at any time without prejudice.
* Patient is capable of understanding the protocol requirements, is willing and able to comply with the study protocol procedures, and has signed the informed consent document.
* Evaluable disease, either measurable on imaging, or with informative tumour marker(s) and a set of specific biochemical and haematological parameters relating to the specific cancer.
* Negative human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) test in women of childbearing potential.
* Sexually active male and female patients of childbearing potential must agree to use an effective method of birth control. Female patients may be surgically sterile.
* Laboratory values at Screening:

* Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5 x 109/L.
* Platelets ≥100 x 109/L.
* Haemoglobin ≥9 g/dL without blood transfusion or colony stimulating factor support.
* Total bilirubin \<1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN);
* AST (SGOT) ≤2.5 times the ULN;
* ALT (SGPT) ≤2.5 times the ULN; ≤5 x ULN for patients with advanced solid tumours with liver metastases.
* Serum creatinine ≤1.5 x ULN or estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of \>50 mL/min based on the Cockcroft-Gault formula.

Exclusion Criteria

* Any patients who have undergone prior orchidectomy.
* Documented, symptomatic or uncontrolled brain metastases.
* History of clinically significant cardiac condition, including ischemic cardiac event, myocardial infarction or unstable cardiac disease within 3 months previous to the indication of home therapy.
* Known Human Immunodeficiency Virus positivity.
* Active Hepatitis B or C or other active liver disease (other than malignancy).
* Any active, clinically significant, viral, bacterial, or systemic fungal infection within previous 4 weeks prior to home therapy.
* Any medical history that would jeopardize compliance.
