Study population

Source population of the study are patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. Patients with this condition are mostly managed at specialist centers and cancer hospitals. The participation of these specialized centers in the study is going to ensure the representativeness of the study population. Physicians will be asked to sample consecutive patients whenever possible to avoid selection bias and thus increase the likelihood of representativeness.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients with confirmed diagnosis of unresectable HCC
  • Physician-initiated decision to treat with regorafenib (prior to study enrollment)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participation in an program with interventions outside of routine clinical practice
  • Past treatment with regorafenib
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Groups and cohorts

  • uHCC patients treated with regorafenib

    Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of uHCC and for whom a decision to treat with regorafenib has been made (by the treating physician)

    Drug: Regorafenib (Stivarga, BAY73-4506)

Interventions

06

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of patients with treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) leading to dose modifications (including reductions, interruptions and permanent discontinuation)

    The primary endpoint is the safety of regorafenib in patients with uHCC, defined as the frequency of documented TEAEs, including serious adverse events (SAEs). Safety will be assessed in all patients who receive at least one dose of regorafenib regardless of prior treatment.

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall survival (OS)

    Overall survival (OS) is defined as the time (days) from the start of regorafenib treatment to the date of death, due to any reason. Patients alive or lost to follow-up at the time of analysis will be censored at their last date of follow-up

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time (days) from the start of regorafenib treatment to the date of first observed disease progression (radiological or clinical, whichever is earlier) or death due to any cause, if death occurs before progression is documented

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

  3. Time to progression (TTP)

    Time to progression (TTP) is defined as the time (days) from the start of regorafenib treatment to the first documented disease progression

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

  4. Best overall tumor response (ORR)

    Best overall tumor response (ORR) will be defined according to investigator-assessed data according to local standard

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

  5. Duration of regorafenib treatment

    Duration of regorafenib treatment, defined by the time interval from the start of regorafenib treatment to the day of permanent discontinuation of regorafenib (including death)

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

Individual participant data

Plan to share: Undecided — Availability of this study's data will later be determined according to Bayer's commitment to the EFPIA/PhRMA "Principles for responsible clinical trial data sharing". This pertains to scope, timepoint and process of data access. As such, Bayer commits to sharing upon request from qualified researchers patient-level clinical trial data, study-level clinical trial data, and protocols from clinical trials in patients for medicines and indications approved in the US and EU as necessary for conducting legitimate research. This applies to data on new medicines and indications that have been approved by the EU and US regulatory agencies on or after January 01, 2014. Interested researchers can use www.clinicalstudydatarequest.com to request access to anonymized patient-level data and supporting documents from clinical studies to conduct research.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Sep 2017 to primary completion in Jan 2022, 52 months.

Of 160 observational studies under Liver Neoplasms, half reached primary completion within 59 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 34 and three quarters within 172. This study's 52 months is below that.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 13, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
