Patients who have withdrawn from standard treatment due to unacceptable toxicity warranting discontinuation of treatment and precluding retreatment with the same agent before progression of disease will also be allowed into the study. Patients treated with oxaliplatin in an adjuvant setting who have progressed during or within 6 months of completion of adjuvant therapy are regarded as failure of oxaliplatin. Patients may or may not have received bevacizumab or cetuximab.

About this study

Official title: Identification of Predictive Biomarker of Regorafenib in Refractory Colorectal Cancer: A Prospective Explorative Study

Regorafenib is a valuable treatment option for metastatic colorectal cancer patients who have progressed after prior standard treatments. Prior progression-free survival data suggest that there could be a distinct subgroup of patients that may benefit from regorafenib. The aim of this study is to identify predictive biomarker of regorafenib in terms of its efficacy.

Read the detailed description

Regorafenib is a multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor which has been shown to increase survival in metastatic colorectal cancer patients who have progressed after prior standard treatments. Progression-free survival data suggest that there could be a distinct subgroup of patients that may benefit from regorafenib. Therefore, it would be important to identify predictive biomarker of efficacy of regorafenib. Considering that regorafenib is a multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor, comprehensive approach is required to discover predictive biomarker.

NGS-based sequencing allows generating large amount of data regarding multiple genes and multiple genetic alterations within a single experiment. Also, it requires less amount of DNA or tissue and cost compared to currently used individual gene testing techniques such as direct sequencing or FISH. Moreover, superior sensitivity over Sanger sequencing can be obtained by increasing coverage depth, especially in cases with low tumor purity. Wide range of genes targeted by regorafenib and genes in the major oncogenic pathway of colorectal cancer influenced by regorafenib can be efficiently assessed using NGS-based sequencing.

The aim of this study is to identify predictive biomarker of efficacy of regorafeinib in metastatic, refractory colorectal cancer patients using NGS technology.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • RegorafenibDrug

    Regorafenib will be given 160mg once daily for 3 weeks, followed by a 1 week rest. Treatment will be continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. Response evaluation (CT scans) will be performed every 2 cycles.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Regorafenib in people with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 17 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Predictive biomarker in terms of disease control rate (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Feb 2019.
