A Study of Famitinib in Patients With Advanced Metastatic Renal Cell Cancer

* Famitinib is a tyrosin-inhibitor agent targeting at c-Kit, VEGFR2, PDGFR, VEGFR3, Flt1 and Flt3. Phase I study has shown that the toxicity is manageable. * The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety profile between Famitinib and Sunitinib in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma.
