• 500,000 deaths attributed to this disease annually

• 50% develop metastasis, most unresectable• median overall survival (OS) for mCRC : 24-28

months

21 days on, 7 days off

Dose-escalation: mCRC, NHL, MM (n=15)Extension phases: CRC(n=23)

Methods• Double blind, 2: 1 Randomised, placebo-controlled, phase 3

study based on the intention to treat population– Stratified by

• VEGF-targeting drugs ( Yes vs. No)• time from diagnosis of metastatic disease ( >=18 months vs. <18 months)• geographical region

• 114 centers in 16 countries in North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia

• Adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum • Disease progression during or within 3 months after the last

standard therapy – stop standard therapy because of unacceptable toxic effects

• No cross over!

Inclusion Criteria

• Aged 18 years or older• ECOG of 0 or 1• life expectancy of at least 3 months• Adequate bone-marrow, liver, and renal

function• Have received locally and currently approved

standard therapies

DISCUSSION

• Fewer in the regorafenib group (273 of 505, 54%) had KRAS mutation compared with the placebo group (157 of 255, 62%)

• All patients had received previous anti-VEGF treatment

• Regorafenib increases overall survival, compared with best supportive care only, in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have received all currently approved standard therapies, also PFS and DCR

• Difference in median overall survival was modest at 1 4 months ∙

• HR of 0 77 ∙ translates into a 23% reduction in risk of death

• The main effect is disease stabilisation, rather than tumour shrinkage – CR:0– PR:1%– SD: 41%

HR

• fewer patients with rectal cancer in the regorafenib group received post-study anticancer therapies compared with the overall population– Placebo vs. Overall: 36% vs. 30%– Regorafenib vs. Overall: 23% vs. 26%

• Most frequent AE of grade 3 or higher were hand-foot skin reaction, fatigue, diarrhoea, hypertension, and rash or desquamation

• Most events occurred early in the course of treatment (within 1–2 cycles) and were readily manageable with dose reduction or interruption

• no worse effect than placebo on QoL

Limitations

• No independent review– Singinificant difference in OS, PFS and RR

• Mechanism of action of regorafenib in human colorectal cancer remains to be elucidated

• Kaplan-Meier curves for PFS suggest that different subgroups of patients might have diff erential responses to regorafenib treatment– Subgroup patients likely to obtain benefit from

regorafenib• Analyses of relevant biomarkers in specimens

currently underway

Conclusion

• The first randomised phase 3 study in which small-molecule kinase inhibitor as monotherapy has shown significant overall survival benefit in patients with refractory mCRC when compared with BSC

• Regorafenib could be a new standard of care in late-stage mCRC
