A Phase III Randomized Placebo-Controlled Study Evaluating Regorafenib Following Completion of Standard Chemotherapy for Patients With Stage III Colon Cancer
This study is a randomized, double-blind, post-chemotherapy, adjuvant phase III clinical
trial. The primary aim of this study is to determine the value of regorafenib in improving
disease-free survival (DFS). Patients with Stage III (IIIB or IIIC) colon cancer as defined
by the 7th Edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) Cancer Staging Manual are
randomized 1:1 to placebo or the experimental agent regorafenib following completion of at
least four months of standard adjuvant therapy (e.g., 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin
(FOLFOX) , capecitabine, oxaliplatin (CapeOx), and other).
trial. The primary aim of this study is to determine the value of regorafenib in improving
disease-free survival (DFS). Patients with Stage III (IIIB or IIIC) colon cancer as defined
by the 7th Edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) Cancer Staging Manual are

least four months of standard adjuvant therapy (e.g., 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin
(FOLFOX) , capecitabine, oxaliplatin (CapeOx), and other).
The primary aim of this study is to determine the value of regorafenib in improving DFS. The
secondary aims are to evaluate the dose tolerance and long term toxicity of two years of
regorafenib following standard adjuvant therapy, and to evaluate the effect of the use of
regorafenib in overall survival (OS).
Eligible patients in this double-blind study will be randomized to take either regorafenib
120 mg or placebo orally, once daily for 21 consecutive days of a 28 day cycle for 26 cycles
(2 years).
Accrual for this study will be approximately 1118 randomized patients. These 1118 patients
will provide approximately 313 DFS events at the time of primary analysis. An initial
futility analysis will be performed when 312 patients have been on study at least 3 months.
The decision to continue the trial will be determined by success of both early stopping
endpoints defined as follows:
- The toxicity profile of regorafenib compared to placebo is acceptable.
- The regorafenib regimen is tolerable for prolonged administration.
An estimated compliance rate of 60% at 6 months for regorafenib will be required for
continuation of the study.
If toxicity is acceptable and compliance with regorafenib is at least 60% nominally, then
accrual will continue.
The second futility analysis will be conducted when approximately 67 DFS events are observed.
Trial conduct and accrual will continue unless the primary endpoint (DFS) trends too far in
the opposite direction (hazard ratio greater than or equal to 1.1).
Toxicity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology
Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0.
NSABP C-13 will include a Behavioral and Health Outcomes correlative science component. A
C-13 Quality of Life (QOL) questionnaire will be administered at baseline (after consent and
prior to randomization) and at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, 24 months, and 30
months.
Submission of blood samples for C-13 correlative science studies will be a study requirement
for all patients. Submissions will also include archived primary tumor tissue from the
resected colon primary. Blood samples for pharmacokinetics (PK) will be collected on Day 15
of Cycle 1 and Day 15 of Cycle 2, with additional blood samples for biomarkers collected at
various time points for future analysis.

magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)) of chest, abdomen, and pelvis must be performed
