Study summary

This is a largest cohort study aimed to estimate the overall survival of patients been treated with regorafenib for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) within the frame of a french compassionate program.

Read the detailed description

Regorafenib (REG) is a multi-kinase inhibitor with survival benefits in patients with pretreated mCRC, as demonstrated in the phase III CORRECT study. As a result, REG has been made available for medical practice use in the US, and in the Europe. However, prescribing conditions in the real-life setting are known to be less stringent than selection criteria in clinical trials. The REgorafeniB in mEtastatic Colorectal cancer: a French Compassionate progrAm (REBECCA) is an ambispective cohort study designed to elucidate safety and effectiveness outcomes associated with REG as used in clinical practice for mCRC who have been previously treated with, or are not considered candidates for, available therapies.

Patients were identified from the database of the French ATU (Temporary Authorization for Use), approved by the French Health Authorities to provide early access to innovative, not yet approved medicinal products such as REG.

Baseline patient and tumor characteristics, REG dosing and dose-intensity, REG-related adverse events, pre- and post REG treatments, predictors of events, and effectiveness data (PFS, OS) were collected from patients who agreed, and whom physicians accepted to collaborate on the REBECCA cohort.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall survival (OS)

    median time between the date of the first administration REG and the date of the death

    Time frame: at death or at the end of study

Secondary outcomes

  1. Patients and tumor baseline characteristics

    Tumor location, KRAS status, synchronous or metachronus metastases, time elapsed from diagnosis of metastases, surgery of the primary, previous times of treatment, weight/height/BMI, ECOG, met location, age, performance status

    Time frame: at the end of treatment

  2. Time under REG treatment

    calculated from the start of treatment until the treatment discontinuation for any cause) and within some subgroups of patients:Tumor location, KRAS status, synchronous or metachronus metastases, time elapsed from diagnosis of metastases, surgery of the primary, previous times of treatment, weight/height/BMI, ECOG, met location, age, performance status, initial REG dosage

    Time frame: at the end of treatment

  3. Compliance

    dose-intensity of treatment with REG, including the actual daily dosage

    Time frame: at the end of study

  4. Safety of REG

    according to NCI-CTCAE (Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Effects) v4.0 and within some subgroups of patients

    Time frame: at the end of treatment

  5. Potential predictive factors

    regarding tolerance, time under REG treatment, PFS, and OS.

    Time frame: at the end of study

  6. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    median time between the date of the first administration REG and the date of the first progression

    Time frame: at the end of study
