Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Nilotinib
Other interventions - Best Supportive Care (BSC) +/- imatinib or sunitinib

Experimental: Nilotinib - 400mg twice daily in core and extension phases of the study.

Active comparator: Control/cross-over to Nilotinib - In core study phase, patients in this arm received Best Supportive Care (BSC) with or without imatinib or sunitinib at the last tolerated dose or at the investigator's choice until documented disease progression followed by cross-over to nilotinib arm.

Patients entering the extension study on this control arm were permitted to cross over to nilotinib arm only upon documented disease progression.


Treatment: Drugs: Nilotinib
Nilotinib 400 mg twice daily (bid)

Other interventions: Best Supportive Care (BSC) +/- imatinib or sunitinib
Can include pain medication, localized radiotherapy, nutritional support, and/or oxygen therapy and blood transfusions. Imatinib or sunitinib can be administered at the last tolerated dose and regimen or at the Investigator's choice.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria (Core Phase):

* Age =18 years
* Radiological confirmation of disease progression during imatinib and sunitinib therapy OR intolerance to imatinib and/or sunitinib

* Physically fit even if not able to work
* Normal organ, electrolyte, and bone marrow function

Inclusion criteria (Extension Phase):

* Patients whose tumors had progressed on the control arm and had crossed over to the nilotinib arm.
* The study was stopped due to meeting the primary efficacy endpoint of PFS at the interim analysis.

* Patients must have had documented, confirmed stable, partial or complete response as defined by the RECIST criteria at the time of entry into the Extension study with the exception of patients who had progressed on the control arm.
