Regorafenib in Bevacizumab Refractory Recurrent Glioblastoma

Overview

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of Regorafenib in patients with recurrent or progressive glioblastoma (GBM) who have progressed on bevacizumab. Regorafenib is FDA approved administered as monotherapy during the study. 22 total patients are expected to participate in this study. Even though a participant may meet all the criteria for participation, it is possible that they will not be enrolled in this study.

  • Progression free survival at 6 months (PFS-6).
    • Time Frame: at 6 months from start of treatment
    • Survival and absence of progressive disease at 6 months, with progression defined as >25% in the sum of products of the perpendicular diameters of CE lesions; evidence of new lesion(s).
  • Median time to progression (TTP)
    • Time Frame: Up to 3 years from start of treatment
    • Time that takes a median patient to progress defined as >25% in the sum of products of the perpendicular diameters of CE lesions; evidence of new lesion(s).
