The objectives of this study are to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of VAL401 in the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma.
This is a Phase II, open label study to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of VAL401 in the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma after failure of at least one prior chemotherapeutic regimen. Eligible patients will be enrolled as a single cohort and treated with VAL401, given as oral capsules. VAL401 is a formulation of Risperidone (active pharmaceutical ingredient) in a liquid lipid filled capsule.

Progression-free Survival (PFS)
PFS is defined as the time from screening to disease progression (or death if the patient died before progression), with progression date nominally defined as the date the patient was withdrawn from the trial, where the Principal Investigator has determined by their professional discretion the patient has symptomatic disease progression.
Time frame: 6 months
Patient Quality of Life During VAL401 Treatment
Changes in patient quality of life measured by EORTC Health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) assessment questionnaire QLQ-C30 (Cancer specific questionnaire).
Time frame: 6 months
Number of Participants Reporting Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events
Ongoing evaluation of Adverse Events during treatment with VAL401. Events assessed for number of patients affected, severity of event, likelihood of event being related to the drug treatment and whether the event is an expected/known side effect of Risperidone.
Time frame: 6 months
Number of Patients With Disease Control
Objective tumour response rates according to RECIST 1.1 for target lesions and assessed by CT: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions; Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD.
Time frame: 6 months
Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)
Assessment of Cmax in collected blood samples on Day 1 and Day 15 of Cycle 1, collected at time points: pre-dose (0h) then 10, 15, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 8, 10 and 24 hours after administration of VAL401.

Time frame: 1 Day and 2 weeks
Trough Plasma Concentration (Cmin)
Assessment of trough plasma concentration (Cmin) in collected blood samples on Day 1 and Day 15 of Cycle 1, collected at time points: pre-dose (0h) then 10, 15, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 8, 10 and 24 hours after administration of VAL401.
Time frame: 1 Day and 2 weeks
Plasma VAL401 Half-life (t 1/2)
Assessment of plasma half-life of VAL401 (t 1/2) in collected blood samples on Day 1 and Day 15 of Cycle 1, collected at time points: pre-dose (0h) then 10, 15, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 8, 10 and 24 hours after administration of VAL401.
Time frame: 1 Day and 2 weeks
Overall Survival
Defined as the time from screening to death if the patient dies within the period that the site is open
Time frame: 6 months
