RegoNivo vs Standard of Care Chemotherapy in AGOC
brief summary
To determine if the regorafenib and nivolumab combination (RegoNivo) improves overall survival compared with current standard chemotherapy options in refractory AGOC.
detailed description
The purpose of this international study is to determine if the combination of regorafenib and nivolumab is more effective than standard chemotherapy in prolonging overall survival in a broad group of participants with AGOC, who have progressed after treatment with standard anti-cancer therapy.
In the INTEGRATE study, regorafenib alone was shown to be effective in prolonging the progression-free period in people with AGOC following standard anti-cancer therapy (i.e. it delayed tumour growth), and demonstrated a potential benefit on long term survival. Recent research has shown the early results from this combination of regorafenib \& nivolumab may improve outcomes for cancer patients. INTEGRATE IIb will investigate this effect further in a larger group of participants with AGOC.
The study aims to determine:
i. Whether the combination of regorafenib/nivolumab is likely to help patients with AGOC live longer; ii. The effects of this treatment on progression-free survival; iii. The numbers of participants responding to the treatment iv. The effects of this treatment on quality of life v. The side effects and tolerability of this treatment vi. Molecular differences (e.g. variations in genes or proteins) that may account for the effects of this treatment vii. Differences in the costs of care for people on this treatment.
The Investigators plan to enrol 460 participants in the study from, but not limited to; Australia, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, USA, Germany, Austria, Spain, and Italy.
