简要总结
Sorafenib is a new drug, which is approved under the brand name Nexavar for the treatment of advanced kidney cancer. It is also currently being tested in various other cancers. Sorafenib works by stopping the development of new cancer cells and new blood vessels. By stopping the growth of new blood vessels around a tumor, it is believed that sorafenib prevents the growth of kidney cancer tumors.
This is an "open-label" study which means that the patient, the doctor and Bayer Healthcare will know what tablets the patient is taking. All patients in this study will receive sorafenib tablets. Sorafenib is taken orally as a tablet (two tablets are taken twice a day). Treatment with sorafenib will continue until the patient's tumor grows larger or spreads further or if the patient has intolerable side effects. The dose of sorafenib that the patient will receive in the study will increase at certain points during the patient's treatment, as long as the patient is not experiencing side effects and the patient's tumor has not grown.
详细描述
Issues on Outcome Measure "Safety and tolerability" will be addressed in the Adverse Events section.

研究组 & 干预措施
Sorafenib (Nexavar, BAY43-9006)
Intrapatient dose escalation of sorafenib from 400 mg orally twice daily (bid) for the first cycle, 600 mg bid for the second cycle and 800 mg bid until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent. Dose reductions due to toxicities were allowed.
干预措施: Sorafenib (Nexavar, BAY43-9006) (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Best Response - mITT (Modified Intent-to-treat) Population
时间窗: Radiological assessments were performed every 8 weeks (2 cycles) from start of the treatment. After completion of 6 cycles of treatment at the highest tolerated dose level, assessments were performed every 12 weeks for up to 34 months.
Best Response (Response Rate) of a subject was defined as the proportion of patients with confirmed Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) as their best response observed (by independent central assessment) during trial period assessed according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST version 1.0) criteria. Confirmed CR was defined as disappearance of tumor and PR was defined as a decrease of at least 30% in the sum of tumor lesion sizes.
Tumor Response - ITT (Intent to Treat) Population
时间窗: Radiological assessments were performed every 8 weeks (2 cycles) from start of the treatment. After completion of 6 cycles of treatment at the highest tolerated dose level, assessments were performed every 12 weeks for up to 34 months.
Tumor Response of a subject was defined as the best tumor response observed (by independent central assessment) during trial period assessed according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST version 1.0) criteria. Confirmed Complete Response (CR) was defined as disappearance of tumor, Partial Response (PR) was defined as a decrease of at least 30% in the sum of target lesions, Stable Disease (SD) was defined as steady state of disease, and Progressive Disease (PD) was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of measured lesions or appearance of new lesions.
次要结局
- Pharmacokinetics (PK) Analysis - Area Under the Drug Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 10 Hours Postdose (AUC(0-10),ss)(Blood samples were collected at screening (blank) and on day 28 of the first cycle completed at each dose level. Samples were drawn at the following time points in relation to morning dose of sorafenib: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 hours post-dose.)
