Regorafenib is a multiple kinase inhibitor. It influences/blocks angiogenesis (VEGFR1-3, TIE2), proliferation (KIT, RET, RAF-1, BRAF), metastatic activity (VEGFR2-3, PDGFR), tumor immunogenicity (CSF1R), tumor microenvironment (PDGFR-, PDGFR-, FGFR1-2). Regorafenib has several indications including metastatic colorectal cancer. Efficacy and safety of regorafenib data from clinical trials (CORRECT, CONCUR, CONSIGN) and observational trials from real world (REBECCA, CORRELATE, RECORA, PMS,

State of the matter of molecular-biologic predictors (KRAS, PIK3CA ANG-2, VEGF-A, LDH, CCL5/CCR5, CA 19-9) and radiological predictors (RadioCORRECT and other trials) is highlighted. Regimens with dose modification and its influence on effectiveness and tolerability of regorafenib are described according to the data from ReDOS, RESET, REARRANGE trials. The results from retrospective trials comparing regorafenib and another approved for refractory metastatic colorectal cancer drug trifluridine/tipiracil are presented.
