Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Written informed consent and any locally-required authorization (EU Data Privacy Directive in the EU) obtained from the subject prior to performing any protocol-related procedures, including screening evaluations

2. Age ≥ 18 years at time of study entry

3. Histological or cytological documentation of adenocarcinoma of the colorectal region (CRC)

4. Metastatic disease not amenable to surgical resection with curative intent

5. Study treatment must constitute 3rd-line treatment for metastatic disease. Prior treatment lines must encompass at least one fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy, an anti-VEGF and, in case of RAS wildtype tumors, an anti-EGFR treatment.

6. Patients treated with oxaliplatin in an adjuvant setting need to have progressed during or within 6 months of completion of adjuvant therapy to be counted as prior treatment line. Note: Neoadjuvant, perioperative or adjuvant regimens with progression more than 6 months after completion are not considered as prior treatment line for metastatic disease.

7. Measurable disease, defined as at least one unidimensional measurable lesion on a CT scan as defined by RECIST 1.1

8. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status <2 and life expectancy of at least 3 months

9. Adequate bone marrow, renal, and hepatic function, as evidenced by the following within 7 days prior to study treatment initiation:

• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1,500/mm3

• Platelets ≥100,000/mm3

• Hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL

• Serum creatinine ≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)

• Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥30 mL/min/1.73m2

• AST and ALT ≤2.5 x ULN (≤5.0 × ULN for patients with liver involvement of their cancer)

• Bilirubin ≤1.5 X ULN

• Alkaline phosphatase ≤2.5 x ULN (≤5 x ULN with liver involvement of their cancer)

• Amylase and lipase ≤1.5 x ULN

• Spot urine must not show 1+ or more protein in urine or the patient will require a repeat urine analysis. If repeated urinalysis shows 1+ protein or more, a 24-hour urine collection will be required and must show total protein excretion <1000 mg/24 hours

• INR/PTT ≤1.5 x ULN (Patients who are therapeutically treated with an agent such as warfarin or heparin will be allowed to participate provided that no prior evidence of underlying abnormality in coagulation parameters exists. Close monitoring of at least weekly evaluations will be performed until INR/PTT is stable based on a measurement that is pre-dose as defined by the local standard of care.)

10. Women of childbearing potential and male subjects must agree to use adequate contraception for the duration of study participation and up to 6 months following completion of therapy. Females of childbearing potential who are sexually active with a non-sterilized male partner must use 2 methods of effective contraception from screening, and must agree to continue using such precautions for 6 months after the final dose of investigational product.

11. Female subjects must either be of non-reproductive potential (ie, post-menopausal by history: ≥60 years old and no menses for ≥1 year without an alternative medical cause; OR history of hysterectomy, OR history of bilateral tubal ligation, OR history of bilateral oophorectomy) or must have a pregnancy test performed at a maximum of 7 days before start of treatment, and a negative result must be documented before start of treatment.

12. In the assessment of the investigator, patient is able to comply with study requirements.

13. Subject is willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits and examinations including follow up.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Prior treatment with Regorafenib, or any other tyrosine kinase inhibitor for the treatment of malignancy

2. Prior treatment with TAS-102

3. Previous or concurrent cancer that is distinct in primary site or histology from colorectal cancer within 5 years prior to study inclusion EXCEPT for curatively treated cervical cancer in situ, non-melanoma skin cancer and superficial bladder tumors [Ta (Non invasive tumor), Tis (Carcinoma in situ) and T1 (Tumor invades lamina propria)].

4. Known history of/or concomitant malignancy other than mCRC likely to affect life expectancy in the judgment of the investigator

5. History of Gilbert's syndrome

6. Major surgical procedure, open biopsy, or significant traumatic injury within 28 days and last chemotherapy <21 days prior to first dose of treatment

7. Radiotherapy within 4 weeks prior to first dose of treatment

• Congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association NYHA) ≥Class 2

• Unstable angina (angina symptoms at rest), new-onset angina (within the last 3 months).

• Myocardial infarction less than 6 months before start of Day 1 of treatment.

• Cardiac arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmic therapy (beta blockers or digoxin are permitted)

• Uncontrolled hypertension. (Systolic blood pressure >140 mmHg or diastolic pressure >90 mmHg despite optimal medical management)

9. Arterial or venous thrombotic or embolic events such as cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attacks), deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism within 6 months before start of treatment

10. Known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection

11. Chronic hepatitis B or C infection (If hepatitis status can not be obtained from medical records re-testing is required.)

12. Patients with seizure disorder requiring medication

13. Symptomatic metastatic brain or meningeal tumors unless the patient is >6 months from definitive therapy, has a negative imaging study within 4 weeks prior to treatment initiation, and is clinically stable with respect to the tumor at the time of study entry. Also, the patient must not be undergoing acute steroid therapy or taper (chronic steroid therapy is acceptable, provided that the dose is stable for one month prior to and following screening radiographic studies).
