About this study

This is a prospective phase II open-label trial, stratifying patients equally into two cohorts consisting of carcinoid tumors and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs). The purpose of this study is to test any good and bad effects of the study drug called Ibrutinib.

The study population will consist of adult patients with histologically confirmed low to intermediate grade NETs of the GI tract, lungs and unknown primary (carcinoid tumors) or pNETs. All patients must be confirmed to have advanced disease. The study will enroll up to 51 patients in two cohorts (30 carcinoid and 21 pNET patients).

What participants receive

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

  • IbrutinibDrug

    Also called IMBRUVICA®

    Ibrutinib will be administered orally once daily and each cycle will be defined as 4 weeks duration. Study treatment should begin within 14 days following enrollment into the study and continue until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Radiographic Response Rate (ORR)

    Response rate as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1. For this study, measurable disease is defined as the presence of at least one measurable lesion.

    Measurable lesions must be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter in the plane of measurement is to be recorded) with a minimum size of: 10 mm by CT scan (CT scan slice thickness no greater than 5 mm (when CT scans have slice thickness >5 mm, the minimum size should be twice the slice thickness); 10 mm caliper measurement by clinical exam (lesions which cannot be accurately measured with calipers should be recorded as non-measurable); 20 mm by chest X-ray.

    Complete Response (CR): complete disappearance of all target lesions, confirmed by repeat assessments at no less than 4 weeks after the criteria for response are first met. Partial Response (PR): at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum longest diameter.

    Measured: Up to 18 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Progression free survival at one year. PFS, determined as the time from administration of the initial dose of ibrutinib until objective tumor progression using RECIST, or death. Progressive Disease (PD): at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this may include the baseline sum). The sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall Survival determined from the time of drug administration to death from any cause.

    Measured: Up to 24 months

  3. Occurrence of Possibly Related Adverse Events (AEs)

    Adverse events possibly related to study treatment with Ibrutinib. Safety and tolerability will be assessed according to the NIH/NCI Common TerminologyCriteria for Adverse Events version 4 (CTCAE v4).

    Measured: Up to 18 months

  4. Duration of Response

    Duration of response, defined as time from first observation of an objective response which is subsequently confirmed, to first disease progression or death due to any cause.

    Measured: Up to 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ibrutinib in people with Carcinoid Tumors and Pancreatic NET, run by H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute 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 16 inclusion and 13 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 11 Sep 2020. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Oct 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Overall Radiographic Response Rate (ORR) (time frame: Up to 18 months). 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 11 Sep 2020.
