About this study

Official title: Regorafenib Assessment in Refractory Advanced Colorectal Cancer

The general objectives are to evaluate activity and the safety of regorafenib in a population of patients bearing advanced, refractory colorectal cancers and to explore the different downstream molecular pathways to identify tumor response and resistance mechanisms.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective is to identify in a population of patients bearing advanced, refractory colorectal cancers, those who draw no benefit from treatment with regorafenib. There is no specific hypothesis underlying sample size and the study is therefore to be seen as exploratory.

Secondary objectives:

  • To analyze PFS and response rate (RR) in relationship with the same covariates as for OS
  • To assess regorafenib efficacy (OS, PFS, RR) and safety profile in this study population.
  • To assess the Disease control rate (DCR = Complete response [CR] + partial response [PR] + stable disease [SD])
  • To compare the relative benefit (OS, PFS) of regorafenib according to history of treatment with bevacizumab.

What participants receive

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

  • regorafenibDrug

    Also called stivarga (registred name)

    Patients will receive 160 mg regorafenib 1/day 3 weeks out of 4.

Study groups in NCT01929616
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
RegorafenibExperimentalA treatment cycle is defined as a 4 weeks period. Regorafenib will be administered once a day orally at a dose of 160 mg (4 tablets of 40 mg), for 3 weeks.
Receives: Drug: regorafenib

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Overall survival (OS)

    Measured: 2 years from first patient in

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Occurence of Adverse events

    Assessment of safety will follow the WHO guidelines and classified according to NCI-CTCAE v. 4.0 and will be performed every 28 days until 28 days (safety follow up visit) after stopping therapy. Reasons for stopping therapy may include progression of disease or unbearable toxicities, or patient's decision.

    Measured: Every 28 days till 28 days after stopping therapy. An average of 2 months is expected.

  2. Evaluation of tumour response

    RECIST 1.1-based radiological assessment (CT or MRI) will be made every 2 cycles, starting at day 28 of the second cycle till demonstration of progressive disease. An average of 2 months is expected.

    Measured: Every 2 months till progression of the disease. An average of 2 months is expected.

  3. Metabolic response assessed by FDG PET

    FDGPET will be done twice during the study course : at baseline (at day 0, before treatment begin) and after 2 weeks.

    Measured: 2 FDGPET will be perfomed : at Baseline (day 0) and at D14

  4. Molecular aberrations

    Genetic, epigenetic and molecular aberrations will be investigated using gene expression profiling, RNA and exome sequencing, and methylation profiling on the tumor biopsies and repeated blood samples collected during the trial. The relationship between the molecular aberrations,the patient's outcome (PFS, OS) and with metabolic response after treatment with regorafenib will be studied.

    Measured: at day 0 (before treatment begins) and at D14, then repeated every 2 months until progression. An average of 2 months is expected.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing regorafenib in people with Advanced Chemorefractory Colorectal Adenocarcinoma, run by Jules Bordet Institute at 17 sites in Belgium.

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 15 inclusion and 24 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 25 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in Belgium. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Overall survival (OS) (time frame: 2 years from first patient in). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01929616, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 25 Jun 2019.
