Intervention

Drug:
• Drug: LY573636-sodium
Participant specific dose based on height, weight and gender to target a specific exposure range, administered intravenously on Day 4 of a 42-day (6-week) cycle. Dose will be escalated to reach the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). A cohort of participants enrolled after MTD will receive albumin-tailored doses. Participants may continue on treatment until clinical or objective disease progression.
• Sunitinib
37.5 or 50 milligrams (mg), administered orally, daily for a 42-day (6-week) cycle. Participants may continue on treatment until clinical or objective disease progression.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Recommended Dose for Phase 2 Studies of LY573636-Sodium Combined With Sunitinib in Participants With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma	Recommended Phase 2 dose was determined by maximum tolerated dose (MTD). MTD is the highest dose with <33% of participants having a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) during the first 6-week cycle of treatment. DLT is an adverse event (AE) that is likely related to study drug or combination and fulfills any 1 of the following: Common Terminology Criteria for AE (CTCAE, Version 3.0) Grade (Gr) 4 neutropenia lasting =5 days; Gr 4 neutropenia with fever; Gr 4 thrombocytopenia; Gr =3 thrombocytopenia with bleeding; Gr =3 nonhematologic toxicity (excluding controllable nausea/vomiting or diarrhea and alopecia); Gr 3 electrolyte toxicity that is not resolved with standard treatments; Gr =3 elevated hepatic enzyme abnormalities in the setting of preexisting hepatic metastasis may not be considered a DLT; a DLT can be declared if a participant experiences increasing toxicity during treatment.	Predose up to 42 days postdose in Cycle 1 (6 weeks per cycle)
Secondary	Pharmacokinetics: Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of LY573636	Time frame: Cycle 1:day 4: pre-dose, start of infusion, end of infusion,30min,1h,2h,4h,6h,8h,10h,22h,46h,70h,166h,360h post infusion, day 25: predose, during infusion, end of infusion,30min,30min,1h,2h,4h,6h,8h,10h,22h,46h,70h,166h,360h post infusion.	Predose up to 2 hours postdose in Cycles 1 and 2 (6 weeks per cycle)
Secondary	Number of Participants With Tumor Responses	Tumor response was assessed by the investigators according to the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines. Number of participants with tumor responses = number of participants with complete response (CR) + number of participants with partial response (PR). CR is disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; PR is =30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions.	Baseline to end of treatment up to 66 weeks
Secondary	Sunitinib Pharmacokinetics in the Presence of LY573636: Area Under the Curve (AUC)	Time frame: Cycle 1 day 4: pre-dose, start of infusion, end of infusion,30min,1h,2h,4h,6h,8h,10h,22h,46h,70h,166h,360h post infusion, day 25: predose, during infusion, end of infusion,30min,30min,1h,2h,4h,6h,8h,10h,22h,46h,70h,166h,360h post infusion.	Days 1 to 42 in Cycle 1 (6 weeks per cycle)
Secondary	Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Curve of LY573636 Above the Albumin Corrected Threshold (AUCalb)	LY573636 has been found to be highly bound to albumin. AUCalb is a surrogate measure of exposure to unbound (free) LY573636.; Time frame: Cycle 1:day 4: pre-dose, start of infusion, end of infusion,30min,1h,2h,4h,6h,8h,10h,22h,46h,70h,166h,360h post infusion, day 25: predose, during infusion, end of infusion,30min,30min,1h,2h,4h,6h,8h,10h,22h,46h,70h,166h,360h post infusion.; Cycle 2: predose and end of infusion.	Days 1 to 42 in Cycles 1 and Cycle 2 (6 weeks per cycle)
Secondary	The Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Effects	Clinically significant effects were defined as serious and other non-serious adverse events. A summary of serious and all other non-serious adverse events is located in the Reported Adverse Events module.	Baseline to study completion up to 70 weeks
