Inclusion Criteria
- •Patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed, locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors who are not candidates for standard therapy or in whom regorafenib or cetuximab is considered a standard treatment. Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) must have a record of K-ras gene mutational analysis available and no K-ras mutation is present.
- •Male or female patients ≥ 18 years of age
- •Women of childbearing potential must have a blood or urine pregnancy test performed a maximum of 7 days before start of study treatment, and a negative result must be documented before start of study treatment
- •Life expectancy of at least 3 months
- •Adequate bone marrow, liver and renal function as assessed by the following laboratory requirements conducted within 7 days of starting the study treatment:
- •Platelet count ≥ 100,000/cubic millimeters (mm3), hemoglobin (Hb) ≥ 8.5 g/dl, leukocyte count > 3,000/mm3, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,000/mm3
- •Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN). Mildly elevated total bilirubin (< 6 mg/dL) is allowed if Gilbert's syndrome is documented.
- •Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5 x ULN (≤ 5 x ULN for subjects with liver involvement of their cancer)
- •Alkaline phosphatase limit ≤ 2.5 x ULN (≤ 5 x ULN for subjects whose cancer involves their liver).
- •Amylase and lipase ≤ 1.5 x ULN
- •Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 times ULN and creatinine clearance (CLcr) ≥ 30 mL/min according to the Cockroft-Gault formula
- •Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1
Exclusion Criteria
- •Prior treatment with Regorafenib
- •Prior discontinuation of cetuximab treatment due to toxicity or intolerance of cetuximab
- •Major surgical procedure, open biopsy, or significant traumatic injury within 28 days before start of study medication
- •Non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture
- •Systemic anticancer therapy within 28 days
- •Patients unable to swallow and retain oral medications
Arms & Interventions
Regorafenib
Regorafenib will be administered once daily on Days 1-21 of each 28-day Cycle (3 weeks on / 1 week off). The starting dose of regorafenib is 120 mg q.d., if this is tolerable in combination with cetuximab the dose will be escalated to 160 mg q.d.; if it is not tolerated the dose will be de-escalated to 80 mg q.d.
Subjects will receive an initial i.v. infusion of cetuximab (loading dose of 400 mg/ m2 BSA) on Pre-cycle Day -7.
The treatment of regorafenib in combination with cetuximab maintenance dose (250 mg/m2 BSA) starts on Cycle 1 Day 1.
Cetuximab infusions will be given in a once-weekly dosing-regimen as approved.
Intervention: Regorafenib (Stivarga, BAY73-4506) (Drug)
