OR Already receiving stable dose of cyclophosphamide 100 mg/m2 (rounded within 5% of the prescribed dose in multiples of 50 mg per day) daily for at least 14 days by oral route with established treatment regimen either as a monotherapy or as part of combination therapy as per independent clinical judgement of a treating physician based on standard medical care. 6. Documented disease progression (clinical or radiographic imaging) following most-recent anti-cancer systemic study intervention regimen before current cyclophosphamide therapy (not applicable for newly diagnosed patients/adjuvant patients). 7. An Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) 0 or 1 at screening and baseline visit. 8. Body mass index (BMI) within the range 18.5 – 30 kg/m2 (inclusive) at screening and baseline. 9. Life expectancy of ≥12 weeks at screening and baseline. Patients are required to be in stable health status between the two periods of the study. 10. Patient must have recovered from acute toxicity of radiotherapy or previous cycle of chemotherapy before baseline visit. Patients if have received radiotherapy (regardless of site & dose), a gap of 28 days must be maintained between the last dose of radiotherapy and baseline visit. 11. Patient with adequate hematologic, liver and renal function at screening visit. 12. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies: • Is not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) OR • Is a WOCBP and using a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of <1% per year), with low user dependency when used consistently and correctly, as described in Appendix 10.4 during the intervention period and for at least 12 months after the last dose of study intervention and agrees not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purpose of reproduction during the study and for a period of at least 12 months. The investigator should evaluate the effectiveness of the contraceptive method in relationship to the first dose of study intervention. • A WOCBP must have a negative highly sensitive serum pregnancy test at screening; and urine pregnancy test before the first dose of study intervention at baseline visit. • If a urine test cannot be confirmed as negative (e.g., an ambiguous result), a serum pregnancy test is required. In such cases, the participant must be excluded from participation if the serum pregnancy result is positive. • Additional requirements for pregnancy testing during and after study intervention are located in Appendix 10.2. • The investigator is responsible for review of medical history, menstrual history, and recent sexual activity to decrease the risk for inclusion of a woman with an early undetected pregnancy. 13. Willing and able to adhere to the lifestyle restrictions specified in this protocol.

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. History of clinically significant medical condition including but not limited to liver insufficiency; significant cardiac, vascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, neurologic, hematologic, rheumatologic, psychiatric, or metabolic disturbances; any severe, acute, or chronic medical, psychiatric or social condition; or laboratory abnormality that as per Investigator's opinion may either (a) not be in the best interest of the participant, (b) interfere with the informed consent process and/or with compliance with the requirements of the trial, or (c) prevent, limit, or confound the protocol-specified assessments or (d) result in the variation of absorption or metabolism of drug, i.e., ulcerative colitis, or gastrointestinal disease. 2. Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to cyclophosphamide powder or tablet or its excipients 3.
