This trial is evaluating whether Regorafenib will improve 1 primary outcome and 4 secondary outcomes in patients with Adenocarcinoma. Measurement will happen over the course of 16 weeks.
This trial requires 11 total participants across 2 different treatment groups
This trial involves 2 different treatments. Regorafenib is the primary treatment being studied. Participants will all receive the same treatment. There is no placebo group. The treatments being tested are in Phase 2 and have already been tested with other people.
The key signs are: a mass lesion on chest X-ray; enlarged lymph nodes in the neck; and bone or bone marrow metastasis. In patients less than 50 years old, the key diagnosis and signs of advanced cancer can be visualized on mammography and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Most patients over 50 years old present with bone metastasis or pleural invasion. Other signs and symptoms of metastatic disease include weight loss and/or loss of appetite.
Rare cases of adenocarcinoma in the lung can be treated with surgery, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy. If metastasis to the brain occurs, systemic therapy with targeted therapy, local treatment of brain and bone metastases, or local treatment of extracranial metastases can improve survival in most cases. The prognosis of lung cancer is dependent on the patient age and the size and stage of the tumor.
Approximately 230,000 people in the United States have adenocarcinoma a year, more than half of whom are diagnosed in the first four stages of the disease.
Adenocarcinoma is the most prevalent form of [lung cancer](https://www.withpower.com/clinical-trials/lung-cancer) and is the most common form of cancer encountered by primary healthcare doctors. It is often detected by a persistent cough and a nonproductive cough after the age of 46.
The stage-adjusted survival for patients treated with adjuvant systemic therapy (in addition to surgery) was approximately 25% higher than that for those treated with surgery alone. Patients who undergo surgery only as salvage therapy for locally advanced or metastatic disease have the lowest long-term survival.
Adenocarcinomas in colon cancers are rare. The adenocarcinoma subtype has become increasingly recognized as a distinct entity for multiple reasons. As part of the advancement of knowledge of this disease, we report a single center case of a rare and uncommon (0.24% of all colorectal cancers), as well as the first ever reported adenocarcinoma of the appendix with a distinct clinical presentation and survival for this disease.
Adenocarcinoma is not caused by a single etiologic factor. Instead, it is probably caused by different environmental conditions operating synergistically. The incidence of adenocarcinoma will increase as the population ages.
Both PD-8603 and PD-9402 improved progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) when used as monotherapeutic agents in a dose-dense, sequential fashion. The addition of sorafenib to regorafenib did not significantly change the duration of response.
In patients undergoing regorafenib for advanced colorectal cancer, common adverse reactions included diarrhoea and nausea. More serious adverse effects in more than 10% of patients included liver failure, fatigue, anaemia, hypertension, and skin reaction.
Data from a recent study suggested that the clinical trial population for adenocarcinoma is significantly larger than what had previously been suggested. Data from a recent study also indicated that patient characteristics are important for selecting a study population that will maximize the potential for finding statistically and clinically significant differences among the various treatment arms.
There are many new treatments for this rare cancer such as biologic therapy where you can choose which one works best for your cancer. We also found that surgery and radiation therapy are still used by patients who need treatment, even though there are more new treatments that physicians can prescribe and order to improve quality of life for patients with this aggressive type of cancer. In a study that used biologic therapy on a large scale for patients with adenocarcinoma, only 10% of patients were alive 5.4 years after treatment, but by contrast the average survival for patients undergoing conventional treatment in a similar study was over 4 years.

Adenocarcinoma affects the lungs of young and middle aged adults. The average age for onset varies between 30 and 40 years. The average age for death is 58 years old. These tumors are characterized, in general, by a well differentiated morphology and a favorable survival.
