Background: Identifying non-responders to expensive salvage therapies with modest benefits and substantial treatment related adverse events (TRAEs) (e.g. regorafenib/TAS102 in mCRC) is necessary to maximize benefits and limit toxicities. Serial ctDNA sequencing is reliable for tracking tumor dynamics and appears to predict resistance to therapy earlier than radiographic progression. Methods: TACT-D is a randomized study (N = 100) to validate the ability of changes in ctDNA (ΔctDNA) to predict resistance early and in limiting toxicities. We hypothesize that increase in ctDNA (measured by variant allele fraction) at 2 weeks (wk) into treatment can predict resistance earlier than standard radiographic means [at 8-12 wk] and detecting resistance early can enable prompt change in therapy resulting in reduction of TRAEs. Pts with mCRC eligible for either regorafenib/TAS102 are randomized 2:1 to either standard of care (SOC) or ctDNA arm. On SOC arm, treatment is given as per current paradigm i.e. for 8 wk and then restaging. On ctDNA arm, decision to continue therapy is based on ctDNA change between baseline and 2 weeks [ΔctDNA = ctDNA (C1D15 – C1D1)]. Increase in ctDNA triggers early radiographic staging (4 wk). Treatment is continued for disease stability/regression and discontinued for progression. Study has 2 co-primary endpoints: 1) Association of Δ ctDNA and radiographic progression [62 pts on SOC arm, have 94% power (2-sided α 0.05) to detect difference of 95% vs. 58% in progressive disease between pts with increase vs decrease in ctDNA] and 2) Compare proportion of pts experiencing TRAEs within 4 months between study arms [67 in SOC arm and 33 in ctDNA arm have 82% power (2-sided α 0.05) to detect a 30% decrease in toxicity]. Key secondary endpoints include: patient-reported outcomes (MD Anderson Symptom Inventory and PRO-CTCAE), OS, clinical events of special interest (hospitalizations/ER visits/medical interventions such as blood transfusions/IV hydration), clinical trial referral and cost effectiveness. Study is now actively accruing pts (NCT03844620). Funding: MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX & Guardant Health Inc., Redwood City, CA. Clinical trial information: NCT03844620
