Descriptive Information Fields
Brief Title  A Study Of Sunitinib Compared To Placebo For Patients With Advanced Pancreatic Islet Cell Tumors
Official Title  A Phase III Randomized, Double-Blind Study Of Sunitinib (SU011248, Sutent) Versus Placebo In Patients With Progressive Advanced/Metastatic Well-Differentiated Pancreatic Islet Cell Tumors
Brief Summary

This study will randomize patients with advanced pancreatic islet cell tumors to receive either sunitinib or placebo. Patients who are randomized to sunitinib will receive 37.5 mg of sunitinib daily, those randomized to placebo will receive a tablet that looks similar but has no active drug. Neither the patient or the doctor will know whether the patient is receiving sunitinib or placebo. Patients will be followed to determine the status and size of their tumors, survival, quality of life and safety of the drug.
