About this study

Official title: Phase II Multicenter Stratified Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Toxicity of Sorafenib in Treating Locally Advanced or Metastatic Angiosarcomas That Are Not Accessible to Curative Surgery

RATIONALE: Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well sorafenib works in treating patients with angiosarcoma that is locally advanced, metastatic, or unable to be removed by surgery.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the rate of non-progression at 9 months in patients with unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic angiosarcoma treated with sorafenib tosylate.

Secondary

  • Determine the rate of non-progression at 60, 120, and 180 days.
  • Determine the median time to progression.
  • Determine overall survival.
  • Determine the best response rate.
  • Determine the clinical and biological factors that predict clinical benefit.
  • Evaluate tolerability by NCI CTCAE v3.0.
  • Correlate efficacy with plasma expression of genes implicated in controlling angiogenesis.
  • Explore the tumor expression of these genes in tissue from a tumor bank.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients are stratified according to disease type (cutaneous angiosarcoma [scalp, breast, or soft tissue] vs visceral angiosarcoma). All patients receive oral sorafenib tosylate twice daily for 9 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing sorafenib tosylate in people with Sarcoma, run by Centre Oscar Lambret at 18 sites in France.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 17 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in France. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of non-progression at 9 months by RECIST criteria. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00874874, which also lists 3 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 17 Sep 2026.
