Primary Outcome Measures:
  • WB-DWI as early predictor for regorafenib treatment response [ Time Frame: jan 2011-dec 2011 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

    Primary aim of the study:

    To assess whole body diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (WB-DWI) for the assessment and early prediction of response of treatment with regorafenib or placebo in patients with advanced, metastatic gastro-intestinal stromal tumors (GIST)



Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Evaluation WB-DWI parameters in correlation with progression free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: jan 2011-dec 2011 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

    Evaluation of

    • pretreatment apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and b1000 signal intensity (SI)
    • changes of high b-value SI and ADC early during treatment (2weeks after start of therapy; allowed optimal window 10-14 days)
    • treatment follow-up 3 months after initiation of treatment

    of GIST visualized on the WB-DWI as predictor of progression free survival (PFS)



Estimated Enrollment: 30

Study Completion Date: September 2011
Primary Completion Date: September 2011 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Groups/Cohorts Assigned Interventions
GIST treated with regorafenib/placebo
patients with advanced, metastatic gastro-intestinal stromal tumors treated with regorafenib or placebo
Procedure: Whole body diffusion MRI
These studies will be performed on a 3 Tesla (T) MR system. A major advantage of 3T compared to 1.5T is the improved signal to noise ratio that allows whole-body studies to be faster and without application of external antennas, which greatly improves patient comfort.

Detailed Description:

Aim of the study

- To assess whole body diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (WB-DWI) for the assessment and early prediction of response of treatment with regorafenib or placebo in patients with advanced, metastatic gastro-intestinal stromal tumors (GIST)

  1. Evaluation of pretreatment apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and b1000 signal intensity (SI) of GIST visualized on the WB-DWI as predictor of time to progression, determined by progression-free survival (PFS)
  2. Evaluation of WB-DWI using changes of high b-value SI and ADC early during treatment (2weeks after start of therapy; allowed optimal window 10-14 days) as early predictor of time to progression or patient benefit according to RECIST (stable disease + partial response + complete response)
  3. Evaluation of WB-DWI for treatment follow-up 3 months after initiation of treatment. Confirmation of prior published pilot study (Dunet V et al, J Nucl Med 2010)
  4. Comparison of WB-DWI with conventional CT imaging for response assessment
