Patient able and willing to comply with study procedures as per protocol 12. Patient able to understand, sign, and date the written informed consent form at screening visit prior to any protocol-specific procedures 13. Patient affiliated to a social security regimen (for France only) and/or covered by insurance reimbursing sunitinib Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 210 F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patient treated for a cancer other than GIST within 5 years before enrolment, with the exception of basal cell carcinoma or cervical cancer in situ 2.
