4c. Cohort C: Basket Tumor Types (c-Met high-level amplifications)
a.Any tumor type regardless of histology, including osimertinib relapsed/refractory NSCLC, excluding NSCLC EXON 14 skip mutation, that meets inclusion criteria c-Met high-level amplification

c.Not received any c-Met inhibitor
5.Abnormal c-Met dysregulation, by tissue and/or plasma, defined as the following from archival/local results or molecular pre-screening evaluations. see section 4.1
Phase 1 (100, 200, and 300 mg Cohorts)
a.c-Met overexpression by IHC 2+ = 50% of tumor cells
b.or c-Met amplification (c-Met/Cep-7 ratio = 2.2 or GCN = 6 gene copy)
c.or c-Met EXON 14 skip mutation per NGS or RT-PCR
d.or c-Met fusions including the following, but not limited to: BAIAP2L1-MET; C8orf34-MET; CAPZA2-MET; DCTN1-MET; EPS15-MET; LRRFIP1-MET; MET-MET; OXR1-MET; PPFIBP1-MET; PTPRZ1-MET; TFG-MET; TPR-MET; TRIM4-MET; ZKSCAN1-MET; KIF5B-MET and any other known c-Met activating mutations
Phase 1 (400 mg Cohort) and Phase 2 RP2D
a.c-Met high-level amplification (c-Met/Cep-7 ratio of = 2.2 or GCN of = 6 copy). A minimum of five subjects of the high-level amplification (c-Met/Cep-7 ratio of = 5 or GCN = 10 gene copy) for the Stage 1 of the Simon 2 stage design is required)

Exclusion Criteria

1.Hypersensitivity to APL-101, excipients of the drug product, or other components of the study treatment regimen.
2.Known mutation/gene rearrangement of EGFR (except for Cohort C), ALK, ROS1, RET, NTRK, KRAS and BRAF.
3.Use or intended use of any other investigational product, including herbal medication through Study Treatment Termination.
4.Active uncontrolled systemic bacterial, viral, or fungal infection or clinically significant, active disease process, which in the opinion of the investigator makes the risk:benefit unfavorable for the participation of the trial. Screening for chronic conditions is not required.
5.Life-threatening illness, significant organ system dysfunction or comorbid conditions, or other reasons that, in the investigator’s opinion, could compromise the subject’s safety or the integrity of the study outcomes, or interfere with the absorption or metabolism of APL-101.
6.Unstable angina or myocardial infarction within 1 year prior to first dose of APL-101, or symptomatic or unstable arrhythmia requiring medical therapy, or history of congenital prolonged QT syndrome or whose corrected QT interval by Fridericia formula (QTcF) at screening is prolonged> 450 msec based on the average of 3 measurements) or concurrent treatment with any medication that prolongs QT interval).
7.Historical seropositive results consistent with active infection for hepatitis C virus (HCV) or hepatitis B virus (HBV) with high viral loads not actively managed with antiviral therapy and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive patients who are not clinically stable or controlled on their medication (i.e. asymptomatic patients with CD4+ T-cell (CD4+) counts = 350 cells / µL and have not had an opportunistic infection within the past 12 months prior to first dose of APL-101 would be eligible for study entry. Patients on contraindicated medications should be evaluated and replaced with alternate medications with less risk of drug-drug interaction). If history is unclear, a test at Screening will be required.
8.Known significant mental illness or other conditions such as active alcohol or other substance abuse that, in the opinion of the investigator, predisposes the subject to high risk of noncompliance with the protocol treatment or assessments.
9.Unable to swallow orally administered medication whole.
10.Impairment of gastrointestinal function or gastrointestinal disease that may significantly alter drug absorption (e.g., Crohn’s, ulcerative colitis, active inflammatory bowel disease, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or malabsorption syndrome).
11.Women who are breastfeeding.
12.Subjects with complications from prior radiation therapy will not be eligible until AEs return to baseline or = Grade 1.
13.Pregnant or breastfeeding woman.
