Brief summary
Regorafenib is approved in the treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer patients who have been progressed after standard therapies, however, there has not been a predictive biomarker. The investigators designed this study to investigate whether \[18F\]FLT-PET might paly a role as a predictive imaging biomarker of treatment responses to regorafenib.
Detailed description
Recent advances have been made in the treatments for the patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) owing to the introductions of targeted agents, which included bevacizumab, cetuximab, panitumumab, and aflibercept. And in addition, regorafenib, a newer tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has been approved in the treatment for the mCRC patients. Regorafenib (BAY 73-4506) is an orally available multikinase inhibitor with activity against multiple targets, including tumor angiogenesis (VEGFR-1, -2, -3 and TIE-2), oncogenesis (KIT, RET, RAF-1, BRAF, and BRAFV600E), and tumor microenvironment (PDGF and FGFR). Regorafenib has shown antitumor activities in multiple solid tumors, and demonstrated significant efficacy outcomes in patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors and colorectal cancers. The CORRECT study, which compared regorafenib vs placebo in mCRC patients who have been treated with all standard treatment, showed survival improvements with statistical significances; median OS 6.4 vs 5.0 months, HR 0.77, p=0.0052; median PFS 1.9 vs 1.7 months, HR 0.49, p\<0.000001. Above these results, regorafenib monotherapy has been recently approved for the treatment of mCRC patients who have been refractory to all of standard therapies. However, there are still only a few biomarkers which have been established as predictive of treatment responses in the fields of treatments for mCRC patients; KRAS or BRAF mutations for the lack of responses to anti-EGFR agents, cetuximab or panitumumab. There still has not been any biomarker which would be predictive of treatment responses to bevacizumab, aflibercept or regorafenib. The difficulties in search for biomarkers for these agents might come from the facts as following; either bevacizumab or aflibercept does not act directly against tumor itself and should be combined with cytotoxic agents to show efficacy; regorafenib is a multikinase inhibitor which has too many potential targets. Above these reasons, imaging modalities can be fascinating and alternative candidates for predictive biomarkers of treatment responses. Conventional anatomic imaging studies such as computed tomography (CT) scans can hardly predict the treatment responses earlier, and the RECIST using CT scans, which is widely used for measurement of treatment responses, might have several limitations for measurement of efficacy from targeted agents such as cystic necrosis without tumor shrinkage. In the CORRECT study, overall response rate by RECIST was only 1%, although the rates for disease stabilization was up to 40%, which might be a good example for the limitations of the RECIST using conventional anatomical imaging studies for the response evaluation of regorafenib. Among imaging studies, PET scans are useful tools for the noninvasive measurement of functional changes after treatment with targeted agents, and \[18F\]FLT-PET is potentially useful tool for earlier prediction of treatment responses because it can detect earlier changes of cellular proliferation using \[18F\]FLT (fluorothymidine), a radiotraceable substitute for thymidine which is essential for DNA synthesis. Several studies have been reported that \[18F\]FLT-PET may allow an early assessment of the response to chemotherapy including targeted agents. There also has been a report that \[18F\]FLT-PET could predict treatment responses of BRAF inhibitors in the colorectal cancer xenograft model; regorafenib also has an inhibitory effect on BRAF. Therefore, the investigators have planned this study with hypothesis that \[18F\]FLT-PET could be useful for identifying a subgroup of mCRC patients with clinical responsiveness to regorafenib.

Intervention model description
This is a imaging biomarker study to evaluate feasibility of \[18F\]FLT-PET as a potential candidate for predictive imaging biomarker of regorafenib treatment in mCRC patients who progressed after prior standard therapies. The mCRC patients who failed to all 3 active cytotoxic chemotherapy (fluoropyrimidines, oxaliplatin and irinotecan) with or without targeted agents will be accrued. Patients will be scheduled to perform \[18F\]FLT-PET scans before and on 21st day from the administration of regorafenib. Regorafenib will be administered 160 mg/day given orally on day 1 to days 21 following 7 days break, which consists of 4 weeks as 1 cycle. Standard anatomical response evaluation will be performed every 8 weeks (without regard to the cycles or schedules of chemotherapy). Additional \[ 18F\]FDG-PET will be performed before treatment and at 21 days after treatment.

| Assessment of Early Response by 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose(18F-FDG) Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) on Day 21 of Regorafenib Compared With the Response Rate of CT RECIST at 8 Weeks | Regorafenib was administered orally at a dose of 160 mg/day on days 1 to 21 following a 7-day break, with each cycle lasting 4 weeks. Treatment was repeated every 4 weeks and continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patient refusal. | Response assessment using 18F-FDG PET/CT was based on the PERCIST 1.0. The peak SUV value corrected for lean body mass (SULpeak) was measured from the single hottest tumour at each time point. For a tumour to be measurable at baseline, the SULpeak in the target lesion was greater than or equal to 1.5 times the mean SUL in the 3-cm-diameter spherical volume of interest plus two times its standard deviation of the liver. The percentage of change in SULpeak in the measurable target lesion was computed as follows: 100×(SULpeak day 21-SULpeak baseline)/SULpeak baseline. When a non-target lesion showed different responses from the measurable target lesion, we used the overall response considering both the target and non-target responses as previously described. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1) by CT scans at 8 weeks. |

Treatment was repeated every 4 weeks and continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patient refusal. | PET response of 18F-FLT was assessed using the SUVmax. The percentage of change of SUVmax in the target lesion was calculated as follows: 100 ×(SUVmax day 21-SUVmax baseline)/SUVmax baseline. The non responders on 18F-FLT PET/CT were defined as those with decreased SUVmax \<10.6% or new lesions on a follow-up scan.

| Survival Outcomes According to 18F-FLT and 18F-FDG PET/CT Response on Day 21 of Regorafenib and RECIST on CT at 8 Weeks of Regorafenib | Regardless of the reason for discontinuation, all subjects will be followed for survival until death is documented, except for those who specifically withdraw consent to follow-up. | — |

Population: Both 18F-FLT and 18F-FDG PET/CT scans were performed in 64 patients; among the remaining four patients, one withdrew consent and three discontinued Regorafenib treatment during the first cycle because of toxicities. With the exception of three patients who had no follow-up CT (n = 2) or no uptake of 18F-FLT (n = 1), 61 were evaluable for the treatment response on both CT and PET/CT in final.
