Regorafenib Alone or in Combination With Hypofractionated/Low-dose Radiotherapy Plus Toripalimab for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

Summary

The study compares the efficacy and safety of regorafenib alone or in combination with hypofractionated radiotherapy and low-dose radiotherapy (LDRT) plus toripalimab in patients with microsatellite stable metastatic colorectal cancer (MSS mCRC). Patients are randomly assigned (1:1) into the control arm and the experimental arm. Control arm: a total of 54 patients will receive regorafenib monotherapy. Experimental arm: a total of 54 patients will first receive 1 cycle of regorafenib and toripalimab followed by hypofractionated/low-dose radiotherapy. Regorafenib and toripalimab will be continued after the completion of radiotherapy. The survival benefits, response rates, and adverse effects will be analyzed.
