Purpose
This phase II trial is studying how well AZD2171 works in treating patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic liver cancer. AZD2171 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor

- Progression-free survival [ Time Frame: 3 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]This design yields at least 90% power to detect a true 3-month PFS rate of at least 69%.
- Response rate [ Time Frame: Up to 1 year ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Overall survival [ Time Frame: The time from study entry until death from any cause, assessed up to 1 year ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Overall survival will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and confidence limits for survival estimates will be calculated using the Greenwood formula.

Experimental: Arm I
Patients will receive AZD2171 by mouth once a day. Treatment may continue for as long as benefit is shown. Patients will undergo MRI and CT scan of the liver before beginning treatment, 3 days after the first dose of AZD2171, and after finishing course one. Patients will also undergo blood collection periodically for laboratory studies.

Detailed Description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. Assess the progression free survival of patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma treated with AZD2171.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the toxicity of this drug in these patients. II. Determine, preliminarily, the efficacy of this drug, in terms of response rate, duration of response, and overall survival, in these patients.
III. Determine the blood flow changes and vascular permeability of the tumor in patients treated with this drug.
IV. Determine the pharmacokinetic profile of this drug in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients receive oral AZD2171 once daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI and CT perfusion scan of the liver are performed at baseline, 72 hours after the initial dose of AZD2171, and at the end of course 1. Blood samples for pharmacokinetic studies are collected periodically during study.
After the completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year.
