NCT ID: NCT00495625

Last Updated: 2012-03-27

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: TERMINATED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 33 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2006-10-31
• Study Completion Date: 2010-12-31

Brief Summary

An open label multi-site phase II clinical trial of dose escalated sunitinib malate given orally once daily on days 1-28 of each 42-day cycle. Treatment will be continued until there is either disease progression or cumulative or acute toxicity which in the opinion of the treating physician compromises the ability of the patient to receive treatment or patient desire to stop treatment.

Detailed Description

An open label multi-site phase II clinical trial of sunitinib malate given orally once daily on days 1-28 of each 42-day cycle. Sunitinib malate will be dispensed as capsules at the beginning of each treatment cycle. The dose may be escalated at the investigator's discretion. Treatment will be continued until there is either disease progression or cumulative or acute toxicity which in the opinion of the treating physician compromises the ability of the patient to receive treatment or patient desire to stop treatment.

A follow up visit will be required before the beginning of every cycle every 6 weeks to assess toxicity and for physical examination. Complete blood count (CBC) and differential, comprehensive metabolic panel (including liver function tests) and alpha-feto protein (when indicated) will be obtained at every scheduled follow up visit.

• Serum calcium less than or equal to 12.0 mg/dL
• Serum creatinine less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN
• Biopsy-proven disease
• Measurable disease radiographically
• Disease that is deemed surgically unresectable (awaiting orthotopic hepatic transplantation allowable) and/or metastatic
• Age greater or equal to 18 years
• Life expectancy greater than 16 weeks
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0, 1 or 2 (Karnofsky score > 60%)

Exclusion Criteria

• Major surgery or radiation therapy or chemotherapy within 4 weeks of starting the study treatment
• NCI CTCAE version 3 grade 3 hemorrhage within 4 weeks of starting the study treatment
• History of or known brain metastases, spinal cord compression, or carcinomatous meningitis, or evidence of symptomatic brain or leptomeningeal disease on screening computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan
• Any of the following within the 6 months prior to study drug administration: myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina, coronary/peripheral artery bypass graft, symptomatic congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident or transient ischemic attack, or pulmonary embolism.
• Known brain metastases
• Ongoing cardiac dysrhythmias of NCI CTCAE grade greater than or equal to 2
• Ongoing cardiac dysrhythmias of NCI CTCAE grade greater than or equal to 2, atrial fibrillation of any grade, or prolongation of the QTc interval to > 450msec for males or > 470 msec for females
• Hypertension that cannot be controlled by medications (>150/100 mm Hg despite optimal medical therapy)
• Pre-existing thyroid abnormality with thyroid function that cannot be maintained in the normal range with medication
• Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related illness or other active infection
• Concurrent treatment on another clinical trial; supportive care trials or non-treatment trials, e.g. Quality of Life (QOL), are allowed
• Concomitant use of ketoconazole or other agents known to induce CYP3A4

• Ongoing treatment with therapeutic doses of Coumadin (low dose Coumadin up to 2 mg po daily for thrombo prophylaxis is allowed)
• Pregnancy or breastfeeding. Female subjects must be surgically sterile or be postmenopausal, or must agree to use effective contraception during the period of therapy. All female subjects with reproductive potential must have a negative pregnancy test (serum or urine) prior to enrollment. Male subjects must be surgically sterile or must agree to use effective contraception during the period of therapy. The definition of effective contraception will be based on the judgment of the principal investigator or a designated associate.
• Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or study drug administration, or may interfere with the interpretation of study results, and in the judgment of the investigator would make the subject inappropriate for entry into this study.

• Minimum Eligible Age: 18 Years
• Eligible Sex: ALL
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers: No
