    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    REFIT-MSS is a non-randomized, multicenter, open-label, multi-cohort, 2-stage, phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of regorafenib in combination with tislelizumab (referred as Rego-Tisle) in adult patients with select advance, previously treated, Mismatch Repair-Proficient/Microsatellite (pMMR/MSS) stable solid cancers. The multi-cohort design will allow for the examination of 8 separate cohorts of different cancers to determine whether further examination may be warranted in the individual indications.
    Detailed Description
    This is a non-randomized, multicenter, open-label, multi-cohort, phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Rego-Tisle in adult patients with solid tumors that are advanced, pretreated and refractory to standard therapy. Approximately 322 evaluable patients (between 15 and 82 per cohort) in around 65 sites will be enrolled to power the trial efficiently to measure the primary endpoint, Progression Free Survival at 6 months (PFS-6). Patients should have at least one measurable lesion per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors guidelines version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1), an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Scale (ECOG PS) 0-1, and adequate organ function. The trial will include patients who had been diagnosed with a histologically or cytologically confirmed solid tumor belonging to any of the types in the cohorts to be enrolled. To be eligible, patient must meet the criteria for tumor type, stage and prior anti-cancer therapy according to inclusion criteria.

    Phase 2
    Interventional Study Model
    Single Group Assignment
    Model Description
    The trial will include 8 cohorts of patients. Each cohort is considered as a single-arm activity-estimating sub-study with PFS-6 as the primary endpoint. A strong primary endpoint signal seen in a cohort may allow for expansion of the cohort, independently of the status of the other cohorts. Similarly, a cohort may be opened and/or closed for enrollment independently of others.
