E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this phase III study in subjects with metastatic and/or unresectable GIST who have progressed after therapy with at least imatinib and sunitinib is to compare the treatment groups in terms of Progression-Free Survival (PFS), per blinded central radiology review, according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria (version 1.1). |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objectives are to compare the regorafenib and placebo treatment groups in terms of overall survival (OS), time to progression (TTP), disease control rate (DCR), tumor response rate (RR), duration of response (DOR), and safety of regorafenib. |

FARMACOGENETICA: Versione:Final Data:2010/10/05 Titolo:A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase III study of regorafenib plus best supportive care versus placebo plus best supportive care for subjects with metastatic and/or unresectable gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) whose disease has progressed despite prior treatment with at least imatinib and sunitinib Obiettivi:Analizzare i Biomarker di tipo genetico, che coinvolgono RNA e DNA per lo studio degli effetti di Regorafenib sull’inibizione dei recettori delle chinasi che potrebbero esprimersi nelle cellule GIST (c-KIT, PDGFRα) di cellule endoteliali (VEGFR2)

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
. Signed informed consent obtained before any study specific procedures. Subjects must be able to understand and willing to sign a written informed consent. 2. Male or female subjects 18 years of age or older. 3. Subjects with histologically confirmed metastatic and/or unresectable GIST. 4. At least imatinib and sunitinib as prior treatment regimens, with objective disease progression or intolerance to imatinib, as well as disease progression while on sunitinib therapy. Additionally, disease progression or intolerance to other systemic therapies, as well as investigational new agents, is allowed, except prior treatment with any other vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibitor. 5. Subjects must have at least one measurable lesion according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), version 1.1. A lesion in a previously irradiated area is eligible to be considered as measurable disease as long as there is objective evidence of progression of the lesion prior to study enrollment. 6. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1. 7. Adequate bone marrow, liver, and renal function as assessed by the following laboratory requirements conducted within 7 days of starting study treatment: - Total bilirubin </= 1.5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN). Documented Gilbert syndrome is allowed if total bilirubin is mildly elevated (< 6 mg/dL). - Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) </= 3.0 x ULN (</= 5 x ULN for subjects with liver involvement of their GIST). - Lipase </= 1.5 x the ULN - Serum creatinine </= 1.5 x the ULN. - Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) >/= 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 according to the Modified Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) abbreviated formula. - International normalized ratio and partial thromboplastin time (INR and PTT) </= 1.5 x ULN. Subjects who are being treated with an anti-coagulant, such as warfarin or heparin, will be allowed to participate provided that no prior evidence of an underlying abnormality in these parameters exists. Close monitoring of at least weekly evaluations will be performed until INR and PTT are stable based on a pre dose measurement as defined by the local standard of care. - Platelet count >/= 100000/mm3, hemoglobin (Hb) >/= 9.0 g/dl, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >/=1500/mm3. Transfusion of subjects to meet the inclusion criteria will not be allowed. - Alkaline phosphatase limit </= 2.5 x ULN (</= 5 x ULN for subjects whose cancer involves their liver). 8. Recovery to NCI-CTCAE v4.0 Grade 0 or 1 level or recovery to baseline preceding the prior treatment from any previous drug/procedure-related toxicity (except alopecia and anemia) |
|
