Bayer
Brief Summary

Phase I: Determine the maximum tolerated dose of combination of Regorafenib with Refametinib through a dose escalation study, all tumor types that meet certain inclusion/exclusion criteria can be entered.

After the recommended dose is determined, the Phase II portion of the study will evaluate tolerability and efficacy of the combination treatment in patients with breast cancer, lung cancer, or colorectal cancer, respectively.

Detailed Description

Number of treatment-emergent Adverse Events (AEs) will be reported in Adverse Events section.

Study was originally designed with both Phase I and Phase II part, but sponsor decided not to conduct Phase 2 part due to strategic portfolio re-prioritization.

Time to progression was defined as the time (days) from the treatment start date to the disease progression on or following the start date. Participants not experiencing progression at the database cutoff date for primary completion were censored at the last assessment.

Progression-free Survival During Phase 2From start of treatment until progression is documented
