Inclusion Criteria:

* Meets one of the following criteria: Is currently on a stable regimen of an oral contraceptive containing 1mg NE and 0.035mg EE, or Is willing to switch to a regimen of an oral contraceptive containing 1mg NE and 0.035mg EE from a stable regimen of an alternate OC, or Is willing to start a regimen of an oral contraceptive containing 1mg NE and 0.035mg EE.

* Has no prior treatment-related toxicities \>Grade 1 (except alopecia) at the time of enrolment.
* Patient must meet the following laboratory values at the screening visit: Absolute Neutrophil Count ≥1.5 x 109/L. Platelets ≥75 x 109/L. Hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥9 g/dL. Serum creatinine \<1.5 mg/dL. Total bilirubin ≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) (isolated bilirubin \>1.5x ULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin \<35%). Aspartate transaminase (AST) ≤ 3.0 x ULN, except for patients with liver metastasis, who may only be included if AST ≤5.0 x ULN. Alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤ 3.0 x ULN, except for patients with liver metastasis or tumor infiltration, who may only be included if ALT ≤5.0 x ULN. Prothrombin time (PT)/International normalized ratio (INR) and Partial thromboplastin time (PTT) ≤1.5xULN. Note: patients receiving therapeutic anticoagulation agents prior screening are permitted. Albumin 2.5 g/dL.
* Patient has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1.

Exclusion Criteria:

* History or current diagnosis of cardiac disease indicating significant risk of safety for patients participating in the study such as uncontrolled or significant cardiac disease
* Has had any major surgery, extensive radiotherapy, or anti-cancer therapy (e.g., chemotherapy with delayed toxicity, biologic therapy, or immunotherapy) within 21 days prior to enrolment and/or daily or weekly chemotherapy without the potential for delayed toxicity within 14 days prior to enrolment. Prolonged immobilization must have resolved prior to enrolment.
* Has a known or suspected carcinoma that is excluded as administration of Oral Contraceptive would be contraindicated.
* Has a history of another malignancy.
* Has a history of interstitial lung disease or pneumonitis.
* Has a history of RVO.
* Has a history of any of conditions that would contraindicate administration of an OC
