13. Men and women of childbearing potential unwilling to use adequate birth control measures (e.g. abstinence, oral contraceptives, intrauterine device, barrier method with
spermicide, implantable or injectable contraceptives or surgical sterilisation) for the duration of the study and should continue such precautions for 2 weeks after receiving
the last study treatment
14. History of anticancer (including investigational, non-registered) treatment in the four weeks prior to first dose of cediranib, with the exception of palliative radiotherapy for
symptom control
15. Known hypersensitivity to cediranib or any of its excipients
16. History of other malignancies (except for adequately treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma or carcinoma in situ) within 5 years, unless the patient has been disease free for 2 years and there is a tissue diagnosis of the primary cancer of interest from a target lesion
17. Other concomitant anti-cancer therapy (including LHRH agonists) except steroids
18. Recent history of thrombosis
19. Patients with brain metastases if they are symptomatic requiring increasing steroids in the previous six weeks to study entry or those with evidence of recent and/or active
bleeding, or those causing uncontrolled seizures

Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
The person who determines if a subject is eligible for inclusion in the trial is unaware (when this decision is made) to which group the subject will be allocated. Allocation is concealed by central randomisation by phone/fax/computer.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Computerised random allocation to treatment arm with 2:1 ratio cediranib:placebo
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)

Intervention assignment

Other design features
Patients assigned to placebo will switch to cediranib after 24 weeks or disease progression (if sooner)

Summary
Brief summary
This study is investigating whether the drug cediranib might be effective as a treatment for alveolar soft part sarcoma. It will test cediranib against placebo and measure the effects after 24 weeks.
Who is it for? You may be eligible for this study if you are aged 16 years and over, have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of alveolar soft part sarcoma and give your consent to take part. The full inclusion criteria details can be found in the relevant section of this form.
Trial details: In this study, you will receive either the drug cediranib or placebo in the form of one tablet once a day, taken orally over a total period of 24 weeks. If you are allocated to placebo, you will switch to cediranib after 24 weeks (or if your disease progresses before this time). If you are allocated to cediranib, you will continue on this treatment until such time as your disease progresses. You will be required to attend regular clinic visits for routine tests and assessments.
