Regorafenib in advanced solitary fibrous tumour: Results from an exploratory phase II clinical study
EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF CANCER(2023)
Abstract
Background: To investigate the activity of regorafenib in advanced solitary fibrous tumour (SFT). Methods: An Italian monocentric investigator-initiated exploratory single-arm Phase II trial was conducted of regorafenib in adult patients with advanced and progressive SFT, until progression or limiting toxicity. Prior treatment with antiangiogenics was allowed. Primary and secondary end-points were: overall response rate (ORR) by Choi criteria, and ORR by RECIST, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS). Results: From January 2016 to February 2021, 18 patients were enroled [malignant-SFT = 13; dedifferentiatedSFT (D-SFT) = 4; typical-SFT (T-SFT) = 1]. Fourteen patients were pre-treated, in 12 cases with antiangiogenics (median [m-] lines of treatment = 3). Sixteen patients were evaluable for response (one screening failure; one early discontinuation). Six/16 (35.2%) required a definitive dose reduction. ORR by Choi was 37.5% (95% CI: 15.2-64.6), with 6/16 (37.5%) partial responses (PR), 6/16 (37.5%) stable disease (SD) and 4/16 (25%) progressions; 5/6 responses occurred in patients pre-treated with antiangiogenics. No responses were detected in DSFT. Best RECIST responses were: 1/16 (6.2%) PR, 12/16 (75%) SD, 3/16 (18.8%) progressions. At 48.4 month m-FU, m-PFS by Choi was 4.7 (inter-quartile range: 2.4-13.1) months, with 31.2% patients progression-free at 1 year. Conclusion: Regorafenib showed activity in SFT, with 30% patients free-from-progression at one year. Responses were observed also in patients pretreated and refractory to another antiangiogenic agents. However, ORR and mPFS were lower than reported with other antiangiogenics, and this was possibly due to discrepancies in the patient population and the high-rate of dose reductions.
