Life expectancy ≥3 months.

Adequate bone marrow, liver, renal, and cardiac function at study entry, assessed as follows:

Hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL;
Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5 x 109/L;
Platelet count ≥100 x 109/L;
Prothrombin time (PT) or international normalize rate (INR) within 1.5x upper limit of normal;
Partial thromboplastin time (PTT) within 1.5x upper limit of normal;

Prior chemotherapy, other investigational agents, or radiation must be discontinued for at least 28 days prior to the first administration of COTI-2. Hormone treatments must be discontinued for at least 28 days prior to the first administration of COTI-2.
Toxicity from prior therapy (except alopecia) has resolved to ≤Grade 1; in the event of toxicity that has not resolved to ≤Grade 1 but is considered stable, the patient may be eligible after discussion among the investigator and sponsor's medical monitor.

Patients enrolled in the expansion phase must be willing to undergo pre and post-Cycle 1 biopsies.
Patients enrolled in the escalation and expansion phases will be required to have archival tissue available for analysis.

Exclusion Criteria:

Pregnant or lactating.
History of other invasive malignancies, with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer or successfully treated in situ carcinoma, if there is evidence of the malignancy being present within the last 3 years.
Inability to tolerate oral medications.
Any serious and/or unstable pre-existing medical, psychiatric, or other condition (e.g., severe hepatic impairment) or current unstable or uncompensated respiratory or cardiac conditions which makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the study or which could jeopardize compliance with the protocol.

Part 2:

The presence of or imminent occurrence of airway obstruction, unless tracheostomy in place.
HPV-positive status ( In HNSCC patients only)
