Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: To determine the influence of morning versus evening administration on<br>the pharmacokinetics of sunitinib and its metabolite;Secondary Objective: To investigate whether daily variation in CYP3A4 activity exists in humans, based on midazolam and 4beta-hydroxycholesterol PK.<br>To investigate if evening dosing of sunitinib affects the side effects of this drug.<br>To investigate the influence of single-nucleotide polymorphisms in PK genes on the exposure to sunitinib (based on the MEC02.1002 protocol).<br>;Primary end point(s): -Determine differences in sunitinib pharmacokinetics during sunitinib administration in the morning compared to administration in the<br>evening.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1 year
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): Determine differences in adverse effects during sunitinib administration in the morning compared to administration in the<br>evening.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1 year
