Official Title: A Phase 2 Study of GDC-0449 in Patients With Advanced Chondrosarcomas

Brief Summary: This phase II trial studies how well vismodegib works in treating patients with chondrosarcomas that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vismodegib, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
