Interventions

GlivecDRUG

400mg p.o./day in a population of patients with locally advanced (=not amenable to surgery with curative intent) or metastatic malignant GIST. Glivec® may be increased to 600 mg p.o./day and then 800 mg p.o./day (400 mg b.i.d.) if the patient is progressing

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients \>= 18 years of age
  • Histologically documented diagnosis of GIST which is malignant as well as unresectable (=not amenable to surgery with curative intent) and/or metastatic and therefore incurable Immunohistochemical documentation of c-kit (CD117) expression by tumor
  • At least one measurable site of disease (as defined by Southwestern Oncology Group Solid Tumor Response Criteria) which has not been previously embolised or irradiated
  • Performance status 0,1, 2 or 3 (ECOG)
  • Adequate end organ function, defined as the following: total bilirubin \< 1.5 x ULN, SGOT and SGPT \< 2.5 x UNL (or \< 5 x ULN if hepatic metastases are present), creatinine \< 1.5 x ULN, ANC \> 1.5 x 109/L, platelets \> 100 x 109/L
  • Female patients of child-bearing potential must have negative pregnancy test within 7 days before initiation of study drug dosing. Post menopausal women must be amenorrheic for at least 12 months to be considered of non-childbearing potential. Male and female patients of reproductive potential must agree to employ an effective barrier method of birth control throughout the study and for up to 3 months following discontinuation of study drug
  • Life expectancy of at least 6 months
  • Written, voluntary, informed consent
  • Patients who were previously treated with chemotherapy will be eligible for this study
  • Patient who are at least 5 years free of melanoma will be eligible for this study

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient has received any other investigational agents within 28 days of first day of study drug dosing
  • Patient is \< 5 years free of another primary malignancy except: if the other primary malignancy is not currently clinically significant nor requiring active intervention and CECOGs' approval is obtained, or if other primary malignancy is a basal cell skin cancer or a cervical carcinoma in situ. Existence of any other malignant disease is not allowed
  • Patient with Grade III/IV cardiac problems as defined by the New York Heart Association Criteria. (i.e., congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction within 6 months of study)
  • Female patients who are pregnant or breast-feeding.
  • Patient has a severe and/or uncontrolled medical disease (i.e., uncontrolled diabetes, chronic renal disease, or active uncontrolled infection)
  • Patient has a known brain metastasis
  • Patient has an acute or known chronic liver disease (i.e., chronic active hepatitis, cirrhosis)
  • Patient has a known diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
  • Patient received chemotherapy within 4 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin-C) prior to study entry
  • Patient previously received radiotherapy to \>= 25 % of the bone marrow
  • Patient had a major surgery within 2 weeks prior to study entry
  • Patient with any significant history of non-compliance to medical regimens or with inability to grant reliable informed consent
  • Therapeutic anticoagulation with warfarin (e.g. Coumadin® or Coumadine®)
