About this study

The aim of the study is to find simple clinical and laboratory parameters to predict the development of hypertension and to elucidate the mechanism of hypertension during treatment with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor Sunitinib.

Read the detailed description

Inhibition of angiogenesis with antibodies against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptor antagonists has become an established treatment for cancer. An unanticipated side effect of angiogenesis inhibitors is the development of hypertension. The pathogenesis of this hypertension is unknown. Not all patients will develop hypertension. However, it is not known which patient will and which patient will not develop hypertension.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertension, run by Erasmus Medical Center at 1 site in Netherlands.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jan 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Netherlands. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00511511, which also lists 16 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Jan 2010; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
