| Scientific title | A Phase II study of pazopanib in metastatic merkel cell carcinoma |
| Study acronym | UKMCC-01 |
| Study objectives | Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare neuroendocrine cancer of the skin with poor prognosis. The annual incidence is thought to be 0.6 per 100,000 of population, with approximately 400 cases per year in the UK. In this study we aim to determine if pazopanib is clinically active, as determined by response rate using the RECIST scoring, in advanced MCC and thus warrants further investigation in a phase III trial. Furthermore, through a translational sub-study, we aim to explore the biological features of MCC and relate these to clinical outcome in order to identify possible clinical biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Liver function tests: Total serum bilirubin ≤1.5 X Upper Limit Normal (ULN), Alanine Aminotransferase or Aspartate Aminotransferase (in accordance with institutional policy, same test to be used for study duration) ≤2.5 X ULN (or ≤5 X ULN if liver metastases are present) 7.5.
