Popis: | Abstract Background Although the use of regorafenib plus nivolumab demonstrates promising outcomes in patients with refractory microsatellite stable (MSS) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), this effect has not been substantiated in other studies. Moreover, a comparison between the outcomes of regorafenib and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD‐1) antibody combination therapy and regorafenib monotherapy remains unexplored. In this study, we aimed to assess whether regorafenib and PD‐1 antibody combination therapy is superior to regorafenib monotherapy as a third‐line treatment for MSS mCRC. Methods Patients with MSS mCRC who received regorafenib and PD‐1 antibody or regorafenib monotherapy as third‐line treatment were eligible for inclusion. Results In total, 179 patients were enrolled, of which 84 were administered regorafenib combined with a PD‐1 antibody and 95 were administered regorafenib monotherapy. Patients administered regorafenib combined with a PD‐1 antibody had similar progression‐free survival (PFS) as those on regorafenib monotherapy (median PFS was 2.4 months and 1.9 months, respectively, p = 0.086). The administration of regorafenib combined with a PD‐1 antibody resulted in significantly longer PFS than that seen with regorafenib monotherapy in both male (5.2 months vs. 2.4 months, p = 0.001) and female (3.9 months vs. 1.8 months, p = 0.037) patients without liver metastasis. Female patients with liver metastasis who were administered regorafenib combined with a PD‐1 antibody had shorter PFS than those administered regorafenib monotherapy (1.8 months vs. 2.0 months, p = 0.030). Conclusion Liver metastasis and sex are predictors of survival benefit following the addition of a PD‐1 antibody to regorafenib in patients with MSS mCRC. |
