Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

    Percentage of participants with objective response based assessment of confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR). CR is defined as the disappearance of all target lesions. PR is defined as at least 30% decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions of the target lesions taking as a reference the baseline sum longest dimensions.

    The period from study entry until disease progression, death, or date of last contact.

  3. Overall Survival (OS) [Baseline to date of death (up to 12 months)]

    OS is the duration from enrollment to death.

  9. Correlation Between Sunitinib-induced Hypertension and Tumor Response to Treatment (PFS) [Baseline to date of first documentation of response to treatment (up to 12 months)]

    Sunitinib-induced hypertension was determined using blood pressure recorded at each postbaseline visit. Once participants were identified as having sunitinib-induced hypertension, they retained that status at subsequent visits. PFS is the time from start of study treatment to first documentation of tumor response to treatment. Hazard ratio represents the relationship between sunitinib-induced hypertension and PFS (presence/absence of hypertension).

  10. Correlation Between Sunitinib-induced Hypertension and Tumor Response to Treatment (OS) [Baseline to date of death (up to 12 months)]

    Sunitinib-induced hypertension was determined using blood pressure recorded at each postbaseline visit. Once participants were identified as having sunitinib-induced hypertension, they retained that status at subsequent visits. OS is the time from start of study treatment to death. Hazard ratio represents the relationship between sunitinib-induced hypertension and OS.

  11. Percentage of Participants With Hypothyroidism [Baseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12]

    TSH and FT4 levels were measured and hypothyroidism was defined as a TSH level >5.0 mIU/L at that time point.

  12. Percentage of Participants With Hypertension [Baseline, Week 6, Months 3, 6, 9, 12]

    Hypertension was defined as follows. Grade 1: Asymptomatic, transient (less than [<]24 hours) increase by >20mm Hg (diastolic) or to >150/100 mm Hg if previously within normal limits (WNL). Grade 2: Recurrent or persistent (24 hours or more) or symptomatic increase by >20 mm Hg (diastolic) or to >150/100 mm Hg if previously WNL. Grade 3: Requiring >1 drug or more intensive therapy than previously. Grade 4: Life-threatening. Grade 5: Death.

Other Outcome Measures

  1. Summary of Adverse Events for Participants Who Required Dose Modification [Baseline up to 12 months]

    Adverse events (AEs) or treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were defined as newly occurring or worsening after first dose. Study drug modifications included reduced dose or temporary discontinuation of treatment.

  2. Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent Hypertension, by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Grade [Baseline up to 12 months]

    Sunitinib-induced hypertension: not present at baseline but developed through the study, or if present at baseline increased by more than (>) 20% during the study. Grade 1: Asymptomatic, transient (less than [<]24 hours) increase by >20 millimeters of Mercury (mm Hg) (diastolic) or to >150/100 mm Hg if previously within normal limits (WNL); Grade 2: Recurrent or persistent (>=24 hours) or symptomatic increase by >20 mm Hg (diastolic) or to >150/100 mm Hg if previously WNL; Grade 3: Requiring >1 drug or more intensive therapy than previously; Grade 4: Life-threatening; Grade 5: Death.

  3. Percentage of Participants Responding to Treatment [12 months]

    Response categories for target lesions: Complete response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions, reference=baseline sum of longest dimensions; Progressive disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest dimensions, or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions; Stable disease (SD): Not sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR, not sufficient increase to qualify for PD; Reference for PD and SD: smallest sum of longest dimensions since treatment started.

Description Adverse events (AEs) or treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were defined as newly occurring or worsening after first dose. Study drug modifications included reduced dose or temporary discontinuation of treatment.
Time Frame Baseline up to 12 months

Outcome Measure Data

Analysis Population Description
Number of participants analyzed = All participants who required dose modification because of an adverse event. The total number of participants may exceed the number of participants analyzed because one participant may have reported more than one adverse event.

Grade 1: Asymptomatic, transient (less than [<]24 hours) increase by >20 millimeters of Mercury (mm Hg) (diastolic) or to >150/100 mm Hg if previously within normal limits (WNL); Grade 2: Recurrent or persistent (>=24 hours) or symptomatic increase by >20 mm Hg (diastolic) or to >150/100 mm Hg if previously WNL; Grade 3: Requiring >1 drug or more intensive therapy than previously; Grade 4: Life-threatening; Grade 5: Death.

Adverse Event Reporting Description The same event may appear as both an adverse event (AE) and a serious adverse event (SAE). However, what is presented are distinct events. An event may be categorized as serious in one participant and as nonserious in another participant, or one participant may have experienced both a serious and nonserious event during the study.
