- 210
1. Patient with histological proven non-operable locally advanced or metastatic GIST
2. Patient with measurable tumor lesions with longest diameter = 20 mm using conventional techniques or = 10 mm with spiral CT scan according RECIST criteria
3. Patient with C-kit (CD117) positive tumour detected immuno-histochemically
4. Patients resistant to imatinib at dose of 400 (for all countries) or 600 mg/day (only for US). Resistance is defined as a RECIST 1.1 disease progression under imatinib treatment
5. Patient with ECOG = 2
6. Patient with adequate organ functions:
• Absolute neutrophils count (ANC) = 1.5 x 109/L
• Haemoglobin = 10 g/dL
• Platelets (PTL) = 75 x 109/L
• AST/ALT = 2.5x ULN (= 5 x ULN in case of liver metastases)
• Gamma GT < 3 x ULN (< 5 x ULN in case of liver metastases)
• Bilirubin = 1.5x ULN (= 3xULN in case of liver metastases)
• Creatinine clearance = 50 mL/min (Cockcroft and Gault formula)
• Albumin > 1 x LLN
• Urea = 2 x ULN
• Proteinuria < 30 mg/mL (1+) on the dipstick. If proteinuria is = 1+ on the dipstick, 24 hours proteinuria must be < 1.5g/24 hours
7. Patient with life expectancy > 6 months
8. Male or female patient, age >18 years
9. Patient with a BMI > 18 kg/m² and weighing at least 40kg
10. Male and female patient of child bearing potential, (entering the study after a menstrual period and who have a negative pregnancy test) must agree to use two methods (one for the patient and one for the partner) of medically acceptable forms of contraception during the study and for 3 months after the last treatment intake.
11. Patient able and willing to comply with study procedures as per protocol
12. Patient able to understand, sign, and date the written informed consent form at screening visit prior to any protocol-specific procedures
13. Patient affiliated to a social security regimen (for France only) and/or covered by insurance reimbursing sunitinib

4. Patient with history of poor compliance or history of drug/alcohol abuse, or excessive alcohol beverage consumption that would interfere with the ability to comply with the study protocol, or current or past psychiatric disease that might interfere with the ability to comply with the study protocol or give informed consent
5. Pregnant, or nursing female patient
• Previous treatment
6. Patient previously treated with a dose of imatinib >600mg (only for US) or >400mg (outside of the US)
7. Patient intolerant to imatinib
8. Patients non resistant to imatinib
9. Previous treatment with sunitinib or kinase inhibitor other than imatinib
• Wash-out
10. Treatment with any investigational agent within 4 weeks prior to baseline
