metastatic tissue if the primary tumour is unavailable (ER positivity is defined by
at least 10% positive cells)

- No other history of malignant disease except treated basal cell or in situ cervical
carcinoma in the previous 5 years. In case of previous malignant disease,
pathological confirmation of metastatic endometrial cancer will be done at
Investigator's discretion

CT scan)

- target lesions not situated in irradiated area

- Life expectancy ≥6 months

- Adequate organ function as defined by the following criteria:

- Haemoglobin ≥10 g/dL

- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1500/μL

- Platelets ≥100,000/μL

- Serum creatinine ≤1.5x upper limit of normal (ULN) or calculated creatinine
clearance ≥50 ml/min

- Patients must have recovered from surgery, radiotherapy and toxicities of adjuvant
chemotherapy treatment if applicable

- Patients must be willing and able to participate in a clinical trial (including the
completion of all necessary study procedures)

- Patients must be able to swallow oral medication

Exclusion Criteria:

- Use of any investigational agent in the 4 weeks prior to enrollment in this study

- Prior systemic treatment for endometrial cancer (including hormonal treatment,
chemotherapy, antiangiogenic or targeted therapies)with the exception of chemotherapy
in the adjuvant setting, having been completed at least 6 months prior to
randomisation

- Known central nervous system (CNS) metastases

- Ongoing cardiac dysrhythmias of National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria
Adverse Events (NCI CTC AE) grade ≥2, atrial fibrillation of any grade, QTcF interval
>460 msec.

- Patients with contraindications to Megestrol Acetate (MA) including hypersensitivity
to one of the drug product, any active arterial or venous thromboembolic event and/or
uncontrolled hypertension. Patients receiving anticoagulation for a prior
thromboembolic event may be enrolled in the study at the Investigator's discretion

- Concomitant use of carbonic anhydrase II inhibitors (e.g. acetazolamide,
dichlorphenamide, methazolamide)

- History of hypersensitivity to BN83495 or drugs with a similar chemical structure

- Likely to require treatment during the study with drugs that are not permitted by the
study protocol

- Abnormal baseline findings, any other medical condition(s) or laboratory findings
that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might jeopardise the patient's safety or
decrease the chance of obtaining satisfactory data needed to achieve the objective(s)
of the study
