A Phase I Study of Bevacizumab in Combination With SU11248


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of bevacizumab in combination with sunitinib malate
(SU11248) in patients with solid tumors.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Evaluate the objective response rate, time to disease progression, and overall survival
of these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, dose-escalation study.

Patients receive bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on days 1, 15, and 29 and oral sunitinib
malate (SU11248) once daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 42 days in the absence of
disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of bevacizumab and SU11248 until the
maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at
which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. At least 10 patients are
treated at the MTD.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed for 30 days.
