Abstract

There is limited evidence-based guidance regarding treatment sequencing and outcomes following regorafenib in patients with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). A targeted literature review was conducted to identify studies with clinical outcomes associated with regorafenib therapy and subsequent treatment following regorafenib therapy. The median overall survival range of the nine studies with sequenced-based survival data was 2.1–19.3 months for regorafenib prior to subsequent therapy in refractory mCRC. Safety outcomes in patients treated with regorafenib prior to other therapies in mCRC were generally comparable to reported adverse events in clinical trials for subsequent agents. Data from this review demonstrate a potential correlation between survival and the use of regorafenib prior to subsequent chemotherapy or targeted therapy in patients with refractory mCRC.
