| New Dosage | NCT02636426 ↗ | Sorafenib Administered Using a High-dose, Pulsatile Regimen: a Phase I Exposure Escalation Study | Completed | VU University Medical Center | Phase 1 | 2015-09-01 | Sorafenib is an oral anticancer drug and inhibits multiple protein kinases important for tumor growth and metastases, including VEGFR, PDGFR, and RAF kinases. In daily clinical practice it is currently used at a dose of 400 mg twice daily in a continuous schedule. In this phase I study patients will be treated with a new dosing schedule of sorafenib: i.e. a high-dose, pulsatile schedule. The tolerability and safety of this new schedule is examined in exposure escalation cohorts based on a target plasma AUC0-12h (area under the curve). Exposure escalation cohorts are used instead of conventional dose escalation cohorts because the effect of a drug is dependent of its AUC levels and large differences in plasma sorafenib AUC0-12h have previously been shown between patients treated at the same dose level. Using pharmacokinetic monitoring, the sorafenib dose will be adjusted to a target plasma AUC0-12h. The escalation cohorts consist of 3-6 patients per exposure level starting with a target plasma sorafenib AUC0-12h level of 25-50 mg/L/h. After the determination of the maximum tolerated AUC0-12h, 10 additional patients will be entered into an expansion cohort. In the expansion cohort the patients will be treated with a weekly pulse of sorafenib at the maximum tolerated AUC0-12h for further assessment of safety and preliminary exploration of efficacy. |

| NCT00064350 ↗ | Sorafenib in Treating Patients With Refractory Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer | Completed | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | Phase 2 | 2004-05-01 | RATIONALE: Preclinical studies indicate that sorafenib is a potent inhibitor of Raf kinase in vitro and in vivo, with significant dose-dependent, anti-tumor activity in four different human tumor types including colon, pancreatic, lung, and ovarian. This activity was cytostatic in nature and was maintained if dosing was continued. That is, tumor growth is suspended while the drug is administered but returns to baseline rates when the agent is withdrawn. Therefore, the optimal schedule will be an uninterrupted one. To assess the activity of sorafenib in a timely manner and with a meaningful interpretation, a randomized discontinuation design was adopted in the present trial, conducted in a population who were potentially sensitive to sorafenib. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying sorafenib to see how well it works compared to placebo in treating patients with refractory non-small cell lung cancer. |

| NCT00079612 ↗ | Study of Nexavar (Sorafenib, BAY 43-9006) in Patients With Advanced Refractory Cancer | Completed | Amgen | Phase 2 | 2002-09-01 | The purpose of the study is to: - Find out if BAY 43-9006 prevents the growth of tumors - For patients who have stable cancer status after 3 months of treatment if it is safer and/or more effective to continue to give BAY 43-9006 or to stop giving BAY 43-9006 at that time. - Find out how long the effect of BAY 43-9006 is on tumors. To assess the safety of BAY 43-9006 (sorafenib) in the treatment of advanced refractory cancers. - Measure the amount of BAY 43-9006 and some of its targets in the blood stream in some patients. |

| NCT00093613 ↗ | Sorafenib in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Progressive Malignant Glioma | Completed | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | Phase 1 | 2004-12-01 | This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of sorafenib in treating patients with recurrent or progressive malignant glioma. Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor and by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. |
