9. Subjects must be able to understand and be willing to sign the written informed
consent form. A signed informed consent form must be appropriately obtained prior to
the conduct of any trial-specific procedure.
10. Adequate bone marrow, liver and renal function as assessed by the following laboratory
requirements:
- Total bilirubin = 1.5 x the upper limits of normal (ULN)
- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate amino-transferase (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 with liver
involvement of their cancer)
- Serum creatinine = 1.5 x the ULN
- International normalized ratio (INR)/ Partial thromboplastin time (PTT) = 1.5 x
ULN.
- Platelet count > 100000 /mm3, hemoglobin (Hb) > 9 g/dL, absolute neutrophil count
(ANC) = 1500/mm3. Blood transfusion to meet the inclusion criteria will not be
allowed.
11. Subject must be able to swallow and retain oral medication.
12. Up to 5 of the 15 patients will be allowed to have had other approved or
investigational drugs after prior progression of Regorafenib monotherapy. (all
patients enrolled in this trial must have had prior progression on regorafenib
therapy). This may include TAS102, off-label therapy that may have been prescribed
based on tumor genomic profiling or any investigational agents on a clinical trial.
13. No more than grade 2 toxicity with last previous cycle of regorafenib mono therapy.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Patients receiving any concurrent investigational agents
2. Previous assignment to treatment during this study. Subjects permanently withdrawn
from study participation will not be allowed to re-enter study.
3. Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic pressure >140 mm Hg or diastolic pressure > 90 mm
Hg [NCI-CTCAE v4.0] on repeated measurement) despite optimal medical management.
4. Active or clinically significant cardiac disease including:
- Congestive heart failure - New York Heart Association (NYHA) > Class II.
- Active coronary artery disease.
- Suspected Long QT syndrome defined as QTc interval > 500 milliseconds at
baseline.
- Cardiac arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmic therapy other than beta blockers or
digoxin.
- Unstable angina (anginal symptoms at rest), new-onset angina within 3 months
before randomization, or myocardial infarction within 6 months before
randomization.
5. Evidence or history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy.
6. Any hemorrhage or bleeding event = NCI CTCAE Grade 3 within 4 weeks prior to start of
study medication.
7. Subjects diagnosed with thrombotic, embolic, venous, or arterial events, such as
cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attacks) deep vein thrombosis
or pulmonary embolism within 3 months of start of study treatment.
8. Patients with any previously untreated or concurrent cancer that is distinct in
primary site or histology except cervical cancer in-situ, treated ductal carcinoma in
situ of the breast, curatively treated nonmelanoma skin carcinoma, noninvasive
aerodigestive neoplasms, or superficial bladder tumor. Subjects surviving a cancer
that was curatively treated and without evidence of disease for more than 3 years
before registration are allowed; all cancer treatments must be completed at least 3
years prior to registration.
9. Patients with phaeochromocytoma.
10. Known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or current chronic or
active hepatitis B or C infection requiring treatment with antiviral therapy.
11. Ongoing infection > Grade 2 NCI-CTCAE v4.0.
12. Symptomatic metastatic brain or meningeal tumors.
13. Presence of a non-healing wound, non-healing ulcer, or bone fracture.
14. Major surgical procedure or significant traumatic injury within 28 days before start
of study medication
15. Renal failure requiring hemo-or peritoneal dialysis.
16. Dehydration Grade =1 NCI-CTCAE v4.0.
17. Patients with seizure disorder requiring medication.
18. Persistent proteinuria = Grade 3 per NCI-CTCAE v4.0 (> 3.5 g/24 hrs, measured by urine
protein: creatinine ratio on a random urine sample).
19. Interstitial lung disease with ongoing signs and symptoms at the time of informed
consent.
20. Pleural effusion or ascites that causes respiratory compromise (= NCI-CTCAE version
4.0 Grade 2 dyspnea).
21. History of organ allograft (including corneal transplant).
22. Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs, study drug
classes, or excipients of the formulations given during the course of this trial.
23. Any malabsorption condition.
24. Women who are pregnant or breast-feeding.
25. Any condition which, in the investigator's opinion, makes the subject unsuitable for
trial participation.
26. Substance abuse, medical, psychological or social conditions that may interfere with
the subject's participation in the study or evaluation of the study results.
27. Therapeutic anticoagulation with Vitamin-K antagonists (e.g., warfarin) or with
heparins and heparinoids.
a. However, prophylactic anticoagulation as described below is allowed: i. Low dose
warfarin (1 mg orally, once daily) with PT-INR = 1.5 x ULN is permitted.
ii. Low dose aspirin (= 100 mg daily). iii. Prophylactic doses of heparin. iv. Low
molecular weight heparin Subjects who are prophylactically treated with an agent such
as warfarin or heparin require close monitoring (day5 of cycle 1 and day 1 of each
cycle) of their INR/PTT. If either of these values are above the therapeutic range,
the doses should be modified and the assessments should be repeated weekly until they
are stable.
