Neoadjuvant Treatment With Regorafenib and Capecitabine Combined With Radiotherapy in Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer (RECAP)

Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Despite treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer relapses are frequent. Several attempts to improve these results with therapy intensification have shown modest effect on disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Recent studies with addition of sorafenib and cediranib revealed promising effect on tumor response with acceptable toxicity. Regorafenib is a multi tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with a broad mechanism of action. Therefore this trial investigates if similar results can be achieved as with sorafenib or cediranib.
The objective of the dose escalation part is to determinate safety, tolerability and the recommended dose. The objective of the expansion cohort is to assess the efficacy and to further characterize safety and tolerability of the therapy.

- Concurrent or recent (within 30 days of registration) treatment with any other experimental drug.
- Any prior treatment for rectal cancer.
- Major surgery or significant traumatic injury within 28 days before registration (colostomy accepted).

- Severe or uncontrolled cardiovascular disease (congestive heart failure NYHA II-IV), unstable angina pectoris, history of myocardial infarction within the last six months, serious arrhythmias requiring medication (with exception of atrial fibrillation or paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia), significant QT-prolongation (QTc interval >460 msec), uncontrolled hypertension (sustained systolic blood pressure > 150 mm Hg and/or diastolic > 100 mm Hg despite antihypertensive therapy).
- Patients with evidence or history of any bleeding diathesis, irrespective of severity.
- Any hemorrhage or bleeding event ≥ Grade 3, NCI-CTCAE v4.03 within 4 weeks prior to the start of trial medication.
- Significant proteinuria: Positive dipstick 2+ and greater if proteinuria ≥ 3.5g/24 h measured by urine protein-creatinine ratio is confirmed (≥ Grade 3, NCI-CTCAE v4.0).
- Patients with known hepatopathy as cirrhosis or diseases like Morbus Gilbert Meulengracht.
- Interstitial lung disease with ongoing signs and symptoms at the time of informed consent.
- Known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or active chronic Hepatitis C or Hepatitis B Virus infection or any uncontrolled active systemic infection requiring intravenous (iv) antimicrobial treatment.
- Lack of physical integrity of the upper gastrointestinal tract or malabsorption syndrome.
- History of organ allografts.
