Regorafenib in Adults 70 Years or Older With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: A Phase II Study

The purpose of the study is to measure high grade (3-5) toxicity of regorafenib and to
monitor the impact of treatment with regorafenib on the quality of life in older adults with
metastatic colorectal cancer.

Subjects will be asked to participate in the study because they are aged 70 or older and
require treatment for colorectal cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and has
not gotten better with other treatment. Subjects will undergo some initial tests to ensure
that they meet all criteria necessary to participate in the study. Once the subject has
completed initial testing and meets eligibility criteria, the subject will begin treatment
with 120 mg of regorafenib (3 tablets) each day for 21 days (3 weeks) in a 28 day cycle (4
weeks). After the first cycle, the doctor will discuss the possibility of increasing the dose
to 160 mg (4 tablets) each day for 21 days (3 weeks) in a 28 day cycle (4 weeks) based on the
subjects health status. During the study, assessments will be performed to monitor the
subjects tolerance and response to the treatment. Regorafenib will continue as long as the
subject is tolerating the treatment and the subjects colorectal cancer is either responding
to treatment or remains stable.
