Men and women should use adequate birth control for at least 2 weeks after the last administration of sorafenib. * Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test performed within 7 days prior to the start of treatment * Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent.

Patients receiving anti-coagulation treatment with an agent such as warfarin or heparin may be allowed to participate. For patients on warfarin, the INR should be measured prior to initiation of sorafenib and monitored at least weekly, or as defined by the local standard of care, until INR is stable.

Patients must not have unstable angina (anginal symptoms at rest) or new onset angina (began within the last 3 months) or myocardial infarction within the past 6 months. * History of stroke within six months * Clinically significant peripheral vascular disease * Known brain metastasis. Patients with neurological symptoms must undergo a CT scan/MRI of the brain to exclude brain metastasis. * Cardiac ventricular arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmic therapy. * Uncontrolled hypertension defined as systolic blood pressure \> 150 mmHg or diastolic pressure \> 90 mmHg, despite optimal medical management. * Sorafenib is contraindicated in patients with known severe hypersensitivity to sorafenib or any of the excipients. * Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or chronic Hepatitis B or C. * Active clinically serious infection \> CTCAE Grade 2. * Thrombolytic or embolic events such as a cerebrovascular accident including transient ischemic attacks within the past 6 months * Pulmonary hemorrhage/bleeding event ≥ CTCAE Grade 2 within 4 weeks of first dose of study drug * Any other hemorrhage/bleeding event ≥ CTCAE Grade 3 within 4 weeks of first dose of study drug * Evidence or history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy * Major surgery, significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks of first study drug * Use of St. John's Wort or rifampin (rifampicin) * Known or suspected allergy to sorafenib or any agent given in the course of this trial * Any condition that impairs patient's ability to swallow whole pills * Any malabsorption problem * Anticipation of need for major surgical procedure during the course of the study * Pregnant (positive pregnancy test) or lactating * History of abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, or intra-abdominal abscess within 6 months prior to Day 0 * Serious, non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture * Inability to comply with study and/or follow-up procedures * History of persistent gross hematuria
