简要总结
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of sorafenib tosylate in treating patients with liver cancer who have undergone a liver transplant. Sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib after liver transplant may be an effective treatment for liver cancer
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Establish the safety and toxicity profile of sorafenib administered daily to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients who have undergone orthotopic liver transplantation.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine explant and allograft expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), platelet derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), microvessel density (CD34) and Ki67 (proliferation marker).
OUTLINE: Patients receive sorafenib tosylate orally (PO) twice daily on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

- •Post-transplant patients with rising alpha-feta protein level > 500ng/mL, even in the absence of confirmed disease within 24 months of transplant
- •Patients must have one of the following explant histological features of HCC:bilobar tumor; macrovascular invasion; or multifocality; if patients have well-differentiated HCC, they must have all three features
- •Patients who have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) 0, 1, or 2
- •Platelet count >= 60 x 10^9/L
- •Hemoglobin >= 8.5 g/dL

排除标准
- •Previous or concurrent cancer that is distinct in primary site or histology from HCC, EXCEPT cervical carcinoma in situ, treated basal cell carcinoma,superficial bladder tumors (Ta, Tis & T1); any cancer curatively treated > 3 years prior to entry is permitted
- •Renal failure requiring hemo- or peritoneal dialysis
- •History of cardiac disease: congestive heart failure > New York Heart Association (NYHA) class 2; active coronary artery disease (CAD); cardiac arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmic therapy other than beta blockers ordigoxin; or uncontrolled hypertension; myocardial infarction more than 6months prior to study entry is permitted
- •Active clinically serious infections > grade 2 (National Cancer Institute -Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 3.0)
- •Known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
- •Known central nervous system tumors including metastatic brain disease
- •Patients with clinically significant gastrointestinal bleeding within 30 days prior to study entry
- •Substance abuse, medical, psychological or social conditions that may interfere with the patient's participation in the study or evaluation of the study results
- •Known or suspected allergy to the investigational agent or any agent given in association with this trial
- •Patients unable to swallow oral medications

- •Prior use of Raf-kinase inhibitors (RKI), VEGF inhibitors, MEK inhibitors or Farnesyl transferase inhibitors
- •Use of biologic response modifiers, such as granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), within 3 weeks prior to study entry (G-CSF and other hematopoietic growth factors may be used in the management of acute toxicity, such as febrile neutropenia, when clinically indicated or at the discretion of the investigator; however, they may not be substituted for a required dose reduction)
- •Patients taking chronic erythropoietin are permitted provided no dose adjustment is undertaken within 1 month prior to the study or during the study
- •Autologous bone marrow transplant or stem cell rescue within four months of start of study drug
- •Concomitant treatment with rifampin and St John's wort
- •Concomitant anti-coagulation therapy with warfarin
