NCT ID NCT03049189

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This phase 3 trial tests whether a radioactive drug called 177Lu-Edotreotide (PRRT) works better than the daily pill everolimus for people with advanced neuroendocrine tumors of the gut or pancreas that can't be removed by surgery. About 324 participants are randomly assigned to receive either four cycles of PRRT or daily everolimus. The main goal is to see which treatment delays tumor growth longer.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
177Lu-Edotreotide (a radioactive drug) and Everolimus (a targeted therapy)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a more effective treatment option for people with advanced neuroendocrine tumors that cannot be surgically removed.
What could go wrong
This is a late-stage trial, but results are not yet available. The radioactive treatment may cause side effects like kidney damage or low blood counts, and it may not prove better than the current standard everolimus.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Histologically confirmed diagnosis of well-differentiated neuro-endocrine tumour of non-functional gastroenteric origin (GE-NET) or both functional or non-functional pancreatic origin (P-NET) * Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 * Somatostatin receptor positive (SSTR+) disease * Progressive disease based on RECIST 1.1. criteria as evidenced by two morphological imaging examinations made with the same imaging method (either CT or MRI) Exclusion Criteria: * Known hypersensitivity to edotreotide or everolimus * Known hypersensitivity to DOTA, lutetium-177, or any excipient of edotreotide or everolimus or any other Rapamycin derivative * Prior exposure to any peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) * Prior therapy with mTor inhibitors * Prior EFR (external field radiation) to GEP-NET lesions within 90 days before randomisation or radioembolisation therapy * Therapy with an investigational compound and/or medical device within 30 days prior to randomisation * Indication for surgical lesion removal with curative potential * Planned alternative therapy (for the period of study participation) * Serious non-malignant disease * Clinically relevant renal, hepatic, cardiovascular, or haematological organ dysfunction, potentially interfering with the safety of the study treatments * Pregnant or breast-feeding women * Subjects not able to declare meaningful informed consent on their own (e.g. with legal guardian for mental disorders) or any other vulnerable population to that sense (e.g. persons institutionalised, incarcerated etc.).
