Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Objective Response Rate of Sorafenib Tosylate in Metastatic Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma in Setting of Inherited Tumor Syndromes as Well as in Setting of Sporadic Medullary Thyroid Cancer | Up to 4 weeks after last dose of sorafenib tosylate | Measured using MRI scans. Determined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors/World Health Organization response criteria. 95% confidence interval will be calculated to estimate the frequency of response. |

| Secondary | Patient With Decreased Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) Levels | Up to 4 weeks after last dose of sorafenib tosylate | Identify the number of patients with decreased Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) levels |
| Secondary | Percent of Baseline Dynamic-Contrast Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) Exchange Rate Constant (Kep) | Up to 4 weeks after last dose of sorafenib tosylate | Median decrease in exchange rate Kep in index lesions |

| Secondary | Degree of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Expression in the Tumor | Up to 4 weeks after last dose of sorafenib tosylate | Correlated with clinical response. |
| Secondary | Standardized Uptake Value (SUV Max) as Measured by Fludeoxyglucose F-18 Positron Emission Tomography (PET) | Up to 4 weeks after last dose of sorafenib tosylate | Identify the median SUV at baseline and 8 week follow up as measured by Fludeoxyglucose F-18 Positron Emission Tomography (PET). |
| Secondary | Number of Patients With Toxicity, Graded Using the Revised National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 3.0 | Up to 4 weeks after last dose of sorafenib tosylate | Toxicities were graded for patients using the revised National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0 |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Ret Proto-Oncogene (RET) Gene Defects in the Tumor | Baseline | Percent of patients with RET mutations |
