Who may be able to join

Who cannot join

  • Possible surgery with curative intent.
  • Surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy or other investigational therapy within 3 months of the start of therapy.
  • Patients with known brain metastases unless these metastases have been treated and stabilized for at least 6 months prior to study start. Patients with a history of brain metastases must have a head CT with contrast to document stable disease prior to study start.
  • Uncontrolled congestive heart failure.
  • Any subject who is taking concomitant medications which decrease renal function (such as aminoglycoside antibiotics).
  • Any subject receiving therapy with somatostatin analogues, unless the dose has been stable for at least 3 months prior to the first cycle in this study and the disease status during these 4 months has been documented by modified RECISTS criteria as described in this study
Show all 11Show fewer
  • Any subject receiving therapy with short acting somatostatin analogues in whom these analogues cannot be interrupted for 12 hours before and 12 hours after the administration of the radio labelled somatostatin analogues, or any subject who receives therapy with long-acting somatostatin analogues in whom these analogues cannot be interrupted for at least 6 weeks before the administration of the radio labeled somatostatin analogues, unless the uptake on the Octreoscan during continued somatostatin analogue medication is at least as high as normal liver uptake on planar imaging.
  • In patients with unusual hematological parameters, including an increased MCV (>105fL), and especially in those who had previous chemotherapy, the advice of a hematologist should be sought for adequate further work-up.
  • Subjects with another significant medical, psychiatric, or surgical condition, currently uncontrolled by treatment, which may interfere with completion of the study.
  • Prior radiation therapy to more than 25% of the bone marrow.
  • Female patients who are pregnant, lactating or women of childbearing potential not willing to practice effective contraceptive techniques during the study period and for 60 days (10 half lives of 177Lu after the last treatment, or male patients who have female partners of childbearing potential not willing to practice abstinence or effective contraception, during the study period and for 60 days after the last treatment

About this study

This is a phase II treatment protocol evaluating 177Lu-DOTATATE therapy for somatostatin receptor-expressing cancers including, but not limited to, those arising from the neural crest and involving such organs as the lungs, breast, gastrointestinal tract, skin, and endocrine (examples: pheochromocytoma, medullary carcinoma of the thyroid, non-radioiodine avid differentiated thyroid cancer, melanoma, renal cell, Merkel cell, paraganglioma, small cell lung, Carcinoid, and pancreatic islet cell malignancies).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 177Lu-DOTATATEDrug

    Patients will receive 200mCi dose of 177Lu Dotatate

Study groups in NCT01237457
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
TreatmentExperimentalPatients with somatostatin receptor-expressing neuroendocrine neoplasms will receive up to 200 mCi of 177Lu-DOTATATE every 6-11 weeks, preferably 6-9 weeks to a cumulative dose of 800 mCi.
Receives: Drug: 177Lu-DOTATATE

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Progression Free survival

    Overall response will be determined by Progression Free Survival (PFS). PFS will be calculated as a function of time from start of therapy to time of overall disease progression. Patients will be censored at the date of last contact

    Measured: one year after completion of last treatment cycle

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Dose limiting toxicity

    Patients will be monitored for dose toxicity according to NCI guidelines

    Measured: one year after completion of the fourth cycle of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 177Lu-DOTATATE in people with Neuroendocrine Tumors, run by Ebrahim S Delpassand at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression Free survival (time frame: one year after completion of last treatment cycle). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Mar 2023.
