PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To define the progression-free survival (PFS) at 4 months with daily oral regorafenib (160
mg) in previously treated locally advanced/metastatic angiosarcoma patients
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Progression-free rate at 3 and 6 months. II. Progression-free survival. III. Overall
survival (up to 5 years). IV. Response rate (by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors
[RECIST] version [v] 1.1).
V. Rate and duration of tumor control (complete response [CR] + partial response [PR] +
stable disease [SD]).
VI. Safety/tolerability of regorafenib.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive regorafenib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-21. Courses repeat every
28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for up to 5
years.

National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [NCI-CTCAE] v
4.0) at the time of registration; NOTE: Exceptions to this criterion will include
alopecia and fatigue
- Total bilirubin =< 1.5 x the upper limits of normal (ULN)
- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) =< 2.5 x ULN (=< 5
x ULN for subjects with liver involvement of their cancer)
- Alkaline phosphatase limit =< 2.5 x ULN (=< 5 x ULN for subjects with liver
involvement of their cancer)
- Lipase =< 1.5 x the ULN
- Serum creatinine =< 1.5 x the ULN
- International normalized ratio (INR)/partial thromboplastin time (PTT) < 1.5 x ULN
- Platelet count > 100000/mm^3
- Hemoglobin > 9 g/dL
- Absolute neutrophil count > 1500/mm^3
- If baseline urine protein creatinine (UPC) >= 1, a 24-hour urine protein must be
assessed; patients must have a 24-hour urine protein value < grade 3 (> 3.5 g/24
hours) to be eligible
- NOTE: Blood transfusion to meet the above criteria will not be allowed; NOTE: Patients
who are prophylactically 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
- Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test performed
within 7 days prior to the start of study drug; post-menopausal women (defined as age
>= 50 years and no menses for at least 1 year) and surgically sterilized women are not
required to undergo a pregnancy test
- Subjects (men and women) of childbearing potential must agree to use adequate
contraception beginning at registration until at least 3 months after the last dose of
study drug; the definition of adequate contraception will be based on the judgment of
the principal investigator
- Subject must be able to swallow and retain oral medication
- Subjects must be able to understand and be willing to sign the written informed
consent form; a signed informed consent form must be appropriately obtained prior to
the conduct of any trial-specific procedure
Exclusion Criteria:
- Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic pressure > 140 mmHg or diastolic pressure > 90
mmHg on repeated measurement) despite optimal medical management
- Active or clinically significant cardiac disease including:
- Congestive heart failure - New York Heart Association > class II
- Active coronary artery disease
- Cardiac arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmic therapy other than beta blockers or
digoxin
- Unstable angina (anginal symptoms at rest), new-onset angina within 3 months
before registration, or myocardial infarction within 6 months before registration
- Evidence or history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy
- Any hemorrhage or bleeding event grade 3 within 4 weeks prior to registration
- Subjects with thrombotic, embolic, venous, or arterial events, such as cerebrovascular
accident (including transient ischemic attacks), deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary
embolism within 6 months of informed consent
- Subjects with any previously untreated or concurrent cancer unrelated to angiosarcoma;
NOTE: Exceptions include cervical cancer in-situ, treated basal cell carcinoma, or
superficial bladder tumor; subjects surviving a cancer that was curatively treated and
without evidence of disease for more than 3 years before registration are allowed; all
treatments must have been completed at least 3 years prior to registration
- Patients with pheochromocytoma
- Patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class C)
- Known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or current chronic or
active hepatitis B or C infection requiring treatment with antiviral therapy
- Ongoing infection > grade 2
- Evidence of significant central nervous system disease including seizure disorder
requiring medication, symptomatic metastatic brain or meningeal tumors
- Presence of a non-healing wound, non-healing ulcer, or bone fracture
- Renal failure requiring hemo-or peritoneal dialysis
- Dehydration > grade 1
- Interstitial lung disease with ongoing signs and symptoms at the time of registration
- Pleural effusion or ascites that causes respiratory compromise (>= grade 2 dyspnea)
- History of organ allograft (including corneal transplant)
- Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs, study drug
classes, or excipients of the formulations given during the course of this trial
- Any malabsorption condition
- Evidence of abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal (GI) perforation or intraabdominal
abscess
- Women who are pregnant or breast-feeding
- Concurrent anti-cancer therapy (chemotherapy, surgery, immunotherapy, biologic
therapy, or tumor embolization) other than study treatment (regorafenib)
- Prior use of regorafenib
- Prior use of sorafenib
- Use of cytotoxic chemotherapy within 21 days of registration

- Therapeutic anticoagulation with Vitamin-K antagonists (e.g., warfarin) or with
heparins and heparinoids; NOTE: Prophylactic anticoagulation as described below is
allowed:
- Low dose warfarin (1 mg orally, once daily) with prothrombin time
(PT)-international normalized ratio (INR) =< 1.5 x ULN is permitted; infrequent
bleeding or elevations in PT-INR have been reported in some subjects taking
warfarin while on regorafenib therapy; therefore, subjects taking concomitant
warfarin should be monitored regularly for changes in PT, PT-INR or clinical
bleeding episodes
- Low dose aspirin (=< 100 mg daily)
- Prophylactic doses of heparin
- Any condition which, in the investigator's opinion, makes the subject unsuitable for
trial participation
- Substance abuse, medical, psychological or social conditions that may interfere with
the subject's participation in the study or evaluation of the study results
