Summary

This study tested two oral medications, sunitinib and cediranib, in 34 people with a rare and hard-to-treat cancer called alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) that had spread. Participants were randomly assigned to one drug, and if their cancer worsened, they could switch to the other. The goal was to see if either drug could shrink tumors or slow the disease.
