Pharmacology
Regorafenib is a small molecule inhibitor of multiple membrane-bound and intracellular kinases involved in normal cellular functions and in pathologic processes such as oncogenesis, tumor angiogenesis, metastasis and tumor immunity.
In in vitro biochemical or cellular assays, regorafenib or its major human active metabolites M-2 and M-5 inhibited the activity of RET, VEGFR1, VEGFR2, VEGFR3, KIT, PDGFR-alpha, PDGFR-beta, FGFR1, FGFR2, TIE2, DDR2, TrkA, Eph2A, RAF-1, BRAF, BRAF V600E.
Dosage
Recommended Dose: The recommended dose is 160 mg Regorafenib (four 40 mg tablets) taken orally once daily for the first 21 days of each 28-day cycle. Continue treatment until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Take Regorafenib at the same time each day. Swallow tablet whole with water after a low-fat meal that contains less than 600 calories and less than 30% fat. Do not take two doses of Regorafenib on the same day to make up for a missed dose from the previous day.
Dose Modifications: If dose modifications are required, reduce the dose in 40 mg (one tablet) increments; the lowest recommended daily dose of Regorafenib is 80 mg daily.

Interaction
Effect Of Strong CYP3A4 Inducers On Regorafenib: Co-administration of a strong CYP3A4 inducer with Regorafenib decreased the plasma concentrations of Stivarga, increased the plasma concentrations of the active metabolite M-5.
Effect Of Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors On Regorafenib: Co-administration of a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor with Stivarga increased the plasma concentrations of regorafenib and decreased the plasma concentrations of the active metabolites M-2 and M-5, and may lead to increased toxicity.
Effect Of Regorafenib On Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP) Substrates: Co-administration of Regorafenib with a BCRP substrate increased the plasma concentrations of the BCRP substrate.
Contraindications
None
Side Effects
Common side effects are Hepatotoxicity, Infections, Hemorrhage, Gastrointestinal Perforation or Fistula, Dermatological Toxicity, Hypertension, Cardiac Ischemia and Infarction, Reversible Posterior Leukoencephalopathy Syndrome (RPLS)

Pregnancy: Based on animal studies and its mechanism of action, Stivarga can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data on Regorafenib use in pregnant women.
Administration of regorafenib was embryolethal and teratogenic in rats and rabbits at exposures lower than human exposures at the recommended dose, with increased incidences of cardiovascular, genitourinary, and skeletal malformations.
Lactation: There are no data on the presence of regorafenib or its metabolites in human milk, the effects of regorafenib on the breastfed infant, or on milk production. In rats, Stivarga and its metabolites are excreted in milk.

Severe hepatic impairment. Pregnancy and lactation.
Use in Special Populations
Pediatric Use: The safety and efficacy of Stivarga in pediatric patients less than 18 years of age have not been established.
Geriatric Use: Of the 1142 Stivarga -treated patients enrolled in randomized, placebo-controlled trials, 40% were 65 years of age and over, while 10% were 75 and over. No overall differences in efficacy were observed between these patients and younger patients.
Hepatic Impairment: No dose adjustment is recommended in patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment. Closely monitor patients with hepatic impairment for adverse reactions.
Renal Impairment: No dose adjustment is recommended for patients with renal impairment. The pharmacokinetics of regorafenib have not been studied in patients who are on dialysis and there is no recommended dose for this patient population
