No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Sunitinib is an oral drug used for treatment of advanced kidney cancer. The standard dose is 50mg, but many patients require a dose decrease due to side-effects. Drug levels of sunitinib vary approximately 10-fold between patients.

This study will measure blood levels of sunitinib and its metabolite, and correlate these with side-effects and the response to the treatment. The study aims to establish whether blood levels change with time, and see how useful blood levels are for monitoring patients treated with sunitinib.
