NCT00434109

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to decide if a medicine that slows growth of new blood vessels can be give after the embolization procedure to prevent or delay new growth of blood vessels to tumors.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Participants With Progression Free Survival (PFS) at 12 Months

    Kaplan-Meier analysis of PFS. Progression-free survival rate at 12 months after first embolization. PFS was defined as time from start of treatment until disease progression or death as a result of any cause. Response and progression endpoints refer specifically to hepatic metastases. Extrahepatic metastases were included for assessment of response and progression by RECIST version 1.0. Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the SLD of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded since the treatment started.

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Percentage of Participants With Overall Survival (OS) at One Year

Study Arms (1)

Sunitinib Malate and Hepatic Artery Embolizations

EXPERIMENTAL

Sunitinib Malate and Selective Hepatic Artery Embolizations: Sunitinib malate (Sutent) at a dose of 37.5mg. 1-3 selective hepatic artery embolizations.

Drug: Sunitinib malateProcedure: Hepatic Artery Embolizations

Interventions

Sunitinib malate (Sutent) at a dose of 37.5mg will be administered orally once daily on days 1-28 in a 42-day cycle. Treatment with Sutent will begin no sooner than seven days after the first hepatic artery embolization. Subsequent embolizations (if necessary) will be scheduled during scheduled Sutent treatment breaks. No fewer than seven days shall separate treatment with Sutent and scheduling of hepatic artery embolizations.

Also known as: Sutent
Sunitinib Malate and Hepatic Artery Embolizations

1-3 selective hepatic artery embolizations will be performed at approximately 5-week intervals, based on the extent of hepatic involvement with tumor.

  • Informed Consent: Patients must be aware of the nature of his/her disease process and must willingly give consent after being informed of the experimental nature of therapy, alternatives, potential benefits, side-effects, risks and discomforts.

You may not qualify if:

  • Prior hepatic artery embolization or chemoembolization.
  • Prior treatment with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor or a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor.
  • NCI CTCAE 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.
  • Ongoing cardiac dysrhythmias of NCI CTCAE grade greater than or equal to 2.
  • Prolonged corrected QT (QTc) interval on baseline electrocardiogram (EKG).
  • 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
