The primary objective of this open-label phase Ib trial is to determine the maximum tolerated dose and the recommended phase II dose for the combination of PF-03446962 plus regorafenib in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

NOTE: Subjects with recent DVT who have been therapeutically anti-coagulated for at least 6 weeks are eligible.

13. Known significant or active CAD or PVD or CVD defined as abnormal stress test, symptoms, or requiring medication for the prevention of symptoms.

14. Congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association (NYHA classification, see Appendix 4 functional classification III-IV).

15. Proteinuria at screening demonstrated by urine analysis (UA) > 1+ and 24 hour urine protein = 1 gram/24 hours.

16. Patients who have any severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions or other conditions that could affect their participation in the study as so judged by the treating physician. Examples include but are not limited to:

1. Severely impaired lung function (e.g. use of home O2, history of Idiopathic Lung Disease (ILD), any evidence of ILD on scan.

2. Active (acute or chronic) severe infections requiring treatment with I.V. antibiotics.

3. Liver disease such as cirrhosis, chronic active hepatitis or chronic persistent hepatitis.

4. Poorly controlled hypertension [defined as systolic blood pressure (SBP of >140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of >90 mmHg] NOTE: Initiation or adjustment of antihypertensive medication(s) is permitted prior to study entry. Following antihypertensive medication initiation or adjustment, blood pressure (BP) must be re-assessed three times at approximately 2-minute intervals. At least 24 hours must have elapsed between anti-hypertensive medication initiation or adjustment and BP measurement. These three values should be averaged to obtain the mean diastolic blood pressure and the mean systolic blood pressure. The mean SBP/DBP ratio must be <140/90 mmHg in order for a subject to be eligible for the study.

19. History of hemoptysis (greater than or equal to 1/2 teaspoon of bright red blood per episode) or other significant spontaneous bleeding event within 1 month prior to day 1 of study drug or at any time on a prior VEGF inhibitor.

20. History of abdominal fistula or gastrointestinal perforation at any point within 6 months prior to day 1 of study drug, unless surgically repaired.

21. Active peptic ulcer disease, inflammatory bowel disease (e.g. ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease), or other gastrointestinal conditions with increased risk of perforation or gastrointestinal bleeding.

22. Use or need for full dose anticoagulation other than low molecular weight heparin and Factor Xa inhibitors (e.g. Lovenox, Fondaparinux) and no other bleeding risk.

23. Serious, non-healing wound, active ulcer, or untreated bone fracture as judged by treating physician.

24. Active bleeding diathesis.

25. Known endobronchial lesions and/or lesions infiltrating major pulmonary vessels that increase the risk of pulmonary hemorrhage.

26. Known history of HIV or Hepatitis B or C seropositivity.

27. Female patients who are pregnant or breast feeding, or adults of reproductive potential who are not using effective birth control methods. Two acceptable forms of contraceptives must be continued throughout the trial by either sex and for 2 months (60 days) following last dose of either drug. Hormonal contraceptives are not acceptable as a sole method of contraception. (Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to day 1 of study drug).

28. Concomitant use of CYP3A4 strong inducers and strong inhibitors. (See Appendix 7).

29. Corrected QTc interval > 500 msec. If QTc interval is > 500 msec, then 2 additional ECGs should be obtained over a brief period of time (e.g., within 15-20 minutes) to confirm the abnormality. The average QTc interval will be determined from the 3 ECG tracings by manual evaluation and will be used to determine if the subject will be excluded from the study. The same method of QTc determination must be used throughout the subject's participation in the trial.

30. History of Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome or Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia

31. Patients unwilling to or unable to comply with the protocol.

PF-03446962 will be an investigational formulation supplied by Pfizer . PF-03446962 injection, 10 mg/mL is presented as a sterile solution for IV administration in a formulation consisting of precedented excipients. We will be administering PF-03446962 intravenously at a starting dose of 4.5 mg/kg and escalating to up to 7 mg/kg.
