About this study

Official title: Phase II Study to Evaluate Efficacy of Rechallenge With Sunitinib in Patients With Metastatic Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor (pNETs) Well Differentiated G1/2 Advanced or Metastatic Who Previously Failed to Sunitinib.

The therapeutic goals in the management of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNET) are the control of symptoms and tumor growth control in order to improve patient survival.

In recent years, data from two phase III studies with targeted therapies, sunitinib and everolimus, have broadened the possibilities for treatment of patients with neuroendocrine tumors of the pancreas.

Unfortunately, patients progress and development of new active drugs and evaluating the best treatment approach is decisive.

Given the lack of data comparing the activity of different treatment strategies, final decisions are based on medical experience and consensus of experts. In this context, different questions are still unanswered, as which is the best sequence of treatment and if all patients can benefit from all available drugs.

Neuroendocrine pancreatic tumors are highly vascularized tumors in which cells may be dependent on this pathway for growth throughout the entire history of the tumor and in which inhibition of this pathway is crucial. On the other hand, this aspect has not been endorsed by the population of patients with pNET who have previously failed treatment with sunitinib.

In this scenario the investigators will assess retreatment with sunitinib to evaluate the activity of this drug in the context of therapeutic rescue in patients with metastatic pNET.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sunitinib in people with Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumour Metastatic, run by Grupo Espanol de Tumores Neuroendocrinos at 9 sites in Spain.

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 17 inclusion and 28 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 4 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in Spain. 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?

6 months progression free survival (time frame: 6 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 4 Mar 2020.
