Study Summary

This trial is testing whether the experimental drug AZD2171 can effectively treat alveolar soft part sarcoma by inhibiting tumor growth.

Who is the study for?
Adults diagnosed with alveolar soft part sarcoma can join this trial. They must have a tumor that's measurable on scans, be in relatively good health, and not pregnant or breastfeeding. Participants need to have normal organ function and blood pressure, and cannot be taking certain drugs that affect kidney function or interact with the study drug.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing AZD2171 (cediranib), an experimental drug designed to stop tumors from growing new blood vessels. Patients will take cediranib daily in 28-day cycles, recording doses and side effects in a diary. Their response to treatment will be monitored through regular clinic visits, tests, scans, and possibly biopsies.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Cediranib may cause high blood pressure, bleeding problems, fatigue, hand-foot syndrome (redness and pain on palms or soles), diarrhea, mouth sores, decreased appetite or weight loss. It might also lead to issues with wound healing after surgery.
