Summary

Background: -Some people with wild-type gastrointestinal stromal tumors (WT-GIST) have a deficiency in one of their proteins called succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). Vandetanib is a cancer drug that has been approved to treat thyroid cancer and has been used with some success in other tumors that have a similar loss of SDH. Researchers want to see if this drug can also decrease tumor growth in people with WT-GIST. Objectives: -To test whether the study drug will benefit people with WT-GIST. Eligibility: -Adults and children 3 years old and older with WT-GIST. Design: * Researchers will test participants tumor tissue to confirm it is the wild type of GIST. * Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood tests. They will also have electrical recording of the heart (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG)) and scans of the tumor. * Participants will take the study drug in 28-day cycles. Their doctor will decide how many cycles they can complete. * They will take the study drug once every day and record it in a diary. * On Day 14, they will also visit their doctor to look for side effects. * Before cycles 2, 3 and 4, participants will have a physical exam, urine tests, blood pressure check, and blood tests. These tests will then be done periodically for as long as they are in the study. * Before cycle 4, scans will be done to check the size of the cancer. Most of these will be repeated every 3-6 cycles. * When they stop taking the study drug, participants will return to the clinic for a physical exam and blood tests.

Eligibility Criteria

-INCLUSION CRITERIA

Age:

-greater than or equal to 3 years of age and Body Surface Area (BSA) greater than or equal to 0.5 m(2)

Diagnosis

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) by the Laboratory of Pathology, National Cancer Institute (NCI).
  • Absence of Kit and platelet derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRA) mutation confirmed in a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) certified laboratory.
  • Participants must have measurable disease as defined in Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST (v1.1) as the presence of at least one lesion not previously irradiated, that can be accurately measured at baseline greater than or equal to 10mm in the longest diameter (except lymph nodes which must have short axis greater than or equal to 15 mm) with computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and which is suitable for accurate repeated measurements.

Prior therapy:

There are no standard chemotherapy regimens known to be effective for wt-GIST. Therefore, previously untreated participants are eligible if their tumor(s) are measurable.

  • Participants must be at least 4 weeks from prior surgical procedures and surgical incisions must be healed.
  • Participants must have had their last fraction of external beam radiation therapy at least 4 weeks prior to enrollment.
  • Participants must have had their last dose of cytotoxic chemotherapy at least 28 days prior to enrollment, their last dose of biological therapy, such as biological response modifiers (e.g., cytokines), immunomodulatory agents, vaccines, differentiating agents, used to treat their cancer at least 7 days prior to enrollment, their last dose of a monoclonal antibody at least 30 days prior to enrollment, and their last dose of any investigational agent at least 30 days prior to enrollment.
  • Participants must have received their last dose of short acting colony stimulating factor, such as filgrastim or sargramostim at least 72 hours prior to enrollment and their last dose of long-acting colony stimulating factors, such as PEG-filgrastim at least 7 days prior to enrollment.
  • Participants must have recovered from the acute toxic effects of prior therapy to a grade 1 (Common Terminology Criteria in Adverse Events (CTCAE v.4.0)) level prior to enrollment (does not apply to alopecia).

Performance Status: Lansky (for participants 10 years of age or younger) or Karnofsky (for participants older than 10 years) performance score greater than 50

Patients must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:

  • Hematological Function: The peripheral absolute neutrophil count must be at least 1,500/microL and the platelet count must be at least 100,000/microL within 72 hours prior to enrollment.
  • Coagulation: Prothrombin Time (PT) and Partial Thromboplastin Time (PTT) must not be more than 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) within 72 hours prior to enrollment. PT and PTT should drawn by venipuncture, rather than from a central venous catheter when feasible.
  • Hepatic Function: Bilirubin must not be more than 1.5 x ULN (does not apply to patients with Gilberts Disease) and the aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) must not be more than 2.5 x ULN within 72 hours prior to enrollment, or greater than 5.0 X ULN if in the Investigator s judgment it is related to liver metastases. AST and ALT may be up to 5 x ULN within 72 hours prior to enrollment in participants with hepatic metastases.
  • Renal Function: Participants must have an age-adjusted normal serum creatinine (see Table) or a creatinine clearance of at least 50 ml/min/1.73 m(2).
