Patients were subject to intrapatient dose escalation of IFN-α weekly, as tolerated, to a maximum dose of 9 MU, which, per a protocol amendment, was discontinued during cycle 1, making 6 MU the highest IFN-α dose thereafter. In addition, 6 patients, per the final protocol amendment, were newly enrolled on sunitinib 37.5 mg plus IFN-α 3 MU and not subject to dose escalation of IFN-α.

The combination dose received by patients as of the data cutoff.

One patient on sunitinib 50 mg/day mistakenly co-administered a starting dose of IFN-α 10 MU, necessitating a dose titration to 3 MU.
