Sponsor's own description

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are a form of sarcoma and the most common sarcoma tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. The limited clinical experience suggests that GIST patients may benefit from neo-adjuvant therapy from primary GIST. This is a prospective, multicenter, open, observational study in evaluation of safety and efficacy of imatinib compared with that of historical data for locally unresectable advanced GIST without metastasis. The study will include an up to 28-day screening period, followed by receiving imatinib mesylate (400 mg/day) for at least 6-12 months and followed up for 3 years after surgery.
