Abstract 615P
Background
Based on the results of the ReDOS study, starting a reduced dose of regorafenib (REG) is considered a treatment option for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). However, the effect of starting REG at a reduced dose on treatment outcomes in a real-world setting has not been fully investigated.
Methods
Clinical data ofpatients who received REG for mCRC between May 2013 and December 2020 were retrospectively collected from four institutions in Japan. These patients were divided into two groups: those who received a standard starting dose of REG (Group S) and those who received a reduced starting dose of REG (Group R). Treatment outcomes were compared between the two groups using Cox proportional hazards models based on propensity score adjustment for baseline characteristics.
Results
A total of 573 patients were enrolled (299 in Group S and 274 in Group R). After propensity score matching, 151 patients each in Group S and R were analyzed. The median overall survival was 6.4 months [95% C.I. 5.5-7.4] in Group S, and 6.1 month [95% C.I. 5.1-7.1] in Group R, respectively (HR 1.018, p=0.882). The median progression free survival was 2.1 months [95% C.I. 1.8-2.4] in Group S and 2.1 months [95%C.I. 1.8-2.3] in Group R, respectively (HR 1.077, p=0.522). The median time to the first dose reduction was 33.0 days [95% C.I. 29.1-36.9] in Group S and 74.0 days [95% C.I. 30.6-117.4] in Group R (HR 0.613, p=0.002). The median time to the first dose interruption was 14.0 days [95% C.I. 13.3-14.7] in Group S and 16.0 days [95% C.I. 11.9-20.1] in Group R (HR 0.757, p=0.033). Both any grades and ≥grade 3 proteinuria were significantly less frequent in Group R than in Group S (any grades: 68.7% vs 53.8%, p=0.027, ≥grade 3: 11.3% vs. 3.8%, p=0.045). The median time to onset of any grades and ≥grade 3 proteinuria was significantly longer in Group R (any grades: HR 0.711, p=0.042, ≥grade 3: HR 0.338, p=0.045). No significant difference was observed in the frequency of hand foot skin reaction and hypertension between the two groups.
Conclusions
Our results suggest that starting a reduced dose of REG contributes to a reduction in the frequency and delay in the onset of proteinuria without any impact on efficacy.
