study of st-1898 in advanced renal cell carcinoma

Conditions: Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma

Summary: st-1898 is a receptor tyrosine kinase (rtk) inhibitor for multi-targets, especially for vegfr2, c-met, axl，pdgfra，ret，kit etc. this trial is to evaluate its safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic, and efficacy in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (rcc). in phase ib, the primary objectives are to assess the safety and tolerability, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (mtd) of st-1898 tablets in patients with advanced rcc. secondary objectives are to assess the plasma concentration of st-1898 and to evaluate the efficacy in patients with advanced rcc. in phase ii, the primary objective is to assess the anti-tumor activities of st-1898 tablets in patients with advanced rcc. the secondary objective is to evaluate the safety of st-1898 tablets in patients with advanced rcc.
