An International, Randomised, Double-Blind, Two-Arm Study To Evaluate The Safety And Efficacy Of Vandetanib 150 And 300mg/Day In Patients With Unresectable Locally Advanced Or Metastatic Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma With Progressive Or Symptomatic Disease

The purpose of this study is to give patients with medullary thyroid cancer either 300mg/day
or 150mg/day vandetanib and compare how well each dose affects how their cancer responds. It
will also help the investigators understand the side effects of different doses in these
patients.
