Efficacy of Regorafenib Combined With Best Supportive Care as Maintenance Treatment in High Grade Bone Sarcomas Patients (REGOMAIN)

February 13, 2026 updated by: Centre Leon Berard

A Multicentre Phase II Study of Efficacy of Regorafenib as Maintenance Treatment in Patients With High Grade Bone Sarcomas at Diagnosis or Relapse and Without Complete Remission After Standard Treatment

This is a multicenter phase II study concerning patients with high-grade bone sarcoma (HGBS) without complete remission after standard treatment at diagnosis or at relapse.

Patients will be treated with regorafenib + best supportive care (BSC) for a maximum of 12 months as maintenance therapy after standard line therapy completion.

Progression free rate (PFR) data will be collected and analysed for all included patients to evaluate if regorafenib + BSC can be considered as an interesting treatment for further investigations in this indication.

Detailed Description

This is a multicenter phase II study.

Patients with evaluable unresectable residual disease will be accrued after they completed standard of care, consisting of:

  • At diagnosis: standard multimodal treatment based on histological subtype
  • At relapse: chemotherapy

Patients who meet the eligibility criteria will receive regorafenib + best supportive care (BSC) as maintenance treatment for a maximum 12 months period.

After their eligibility has been confirmed, patients will receive regorafenib until disease progression, or for a maximum of 12 months, or unacceptable toxicity or willingness to stop, whichever occurs first.

After the completion of the maintenance therapy (12 months) patients will be followed-up until the first radiological disease progression, unless a premature disease progression occurred. All patients will be followed-up until the data cut-off (12 months after the last inclusion).

The vital status will be updated once for all patients at 24 months after the last inclusion, based on patient's medical file.

Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Regorafenib and best supportive care

Treatment will be divided in 28 days cycles, including a 21-day period of treatment by regorafenib and best supportive care followed by a 7-day period of rest.

In case of toxicity, dose can be reduced or treatment interrupted according to Specific Product Characteristics (SPC).

Patients can receive up to a maximum of 13 cycles (maximum treatment period : 12 Months).

Treatment for 13 cycles (12 months) maximum.

During each cycle :

  • patients ≥ 16 years old and patients <16 old with Body Surface Area (BSA) ≥ 1,70 m2 will take 3 tablets, once a day, corresponding to a total of 120 mg Regorafenib, during 21 days, followed by 7 days without treatment.
  • patients < 16 years old with a 1,30 m2 ≤ BSA ≥ 1,70 m2 will take 2 tablets, once a day, corresponding to a total of 80 mg Regorafenib, during 21 days, followed by 7 days without treatment

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Progression-Free Rate at 4 months (4m-PFR)
Time Frame: Up to 16 weeks after the date of regorafenib + BSC treatment initiation

The Progression-Free Rate at 4 months (4m-PFR) will be defined as the proportion of patients with a complete response, a partial response or stable disease, confirmed on tumour assessments according to the RECIST V1.1 at 4 months (16 weeks) after the date of regorafenib + BSC treatment initiation.

Patients with a non-progressive disease at 16 ± 2 weeks after the date of regorafenib + BSC treatment initiation will be considered as "success" patients.

Patients with a progressive disease and patients who died from any cause at 16 ± 2 weeks after the date of regorafenib + BSC treatment initiation will be considered as "failure" patients.

At the time of analysis, if at least 18 "successes" are observed among the 36 analyzed patients, the regorafenib + BSC treatment will be considered as interesting for further investigations in this indication.

Up to 16 weeks after the date of regorafenib + BSC treatment initiation

Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame: Up to 3 years

PFS will be described from date of regorafenib + BSC treatment initiation to the date first documented disease progression according to RECIST V1.1 or the date of death due to any cause.

Up to 3 years
Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
The Overall Survival (OS) will be defined as the time from date of regorafenib +BSC treatment initiation to the date of death, from any cause. Patient not known to have died at the time of analysis will be censored based on the last recorded date on which the patient was known to be alive.
Up to 3 years
Quality of Life (QoL)
Time Frame: Up to 1 year
The patient's Quality of Life (QoL) will be assessed using the EORTC Quality Of Life Questionnaire (QLQ)-C30 file. Scores will be calculated at each time point according to the scoring manuals. Descriptive statistics will be used to evaluate baseline scores and evolution of scores from baseline to each time point. Data will be compared between arms using the Student's t-test. The QoL data will also be presented graphically if deemed relevant.
