Response to regorafenib at an initial dose of 120 mg as salvage therapy for metastatic colorectal cancer

Abstract: Abstract. Regorafenib (Reg) is an oral multikinase inhibitor that has achieved improved overall survival in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) in the salvage therapy setting. However, Reg is difficult to manage and determine the optimal dose due to adverse events (AEs). The objective of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the clinical benefit and determine the optimal dose of Reg in mCRC patients. A total of 20 mCRC patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. Initially, 8 patients… Show more

“…424 articles were further excluded because they did not satisfy the inclusion criteria. When carefully reviewed the full texts of the remaining 19 potentially eligible papers, 5 more were not included because of insufficient data ( n = 2) [ 16 , 18 ], different dose of regorafenib ( n = 2) [ 19 , 20 ] and duplication ( n = 1) [ 21 ]. A total of 14 trials were selected for the final analysis.…”

“…in the 120 mg group) with comparable DCR (60.0% in the 160 mg group and 58.3% in the 120 mg group [4]. As the result, the dose of regorafenib administered in the present study will be 120 mg once daily for the first 3 weeks in each 4 week cycle.…”

“…A greater proportion of patients requiring a dose reduction was found in the CORRECT, REBECCA, and CONSIGN studies (2,5,4). In a study retrospectively evaluating response to regorafenib at an initial dose of 120 mg, disease control rates at the initial dose of 160 mg and 120 mg of regorafenib were similar (12). Furthermore, patients in an Indian exploratory analysis study were evaluated based on the initial dose of regorafenib received (80, 120, or 160 mg), and no statistically significant difference was found between the three groups for PFS (10).…”
