Key requirements
Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.
- Ages 18 years and older
- All sexes
- No healthy volunteers
- Adult, Older adult
Who may be able to join
- Histologic or pathologic documentation: well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (G1, G2, or well-differentiated G3) confirmed by local histology and/or pathology
- Functional or nonfunctional tumors are allowed
- Patients with poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma (including large cell histology or small cell histology) are not eligible
- Stage: locally unresectable or metastatic disease
- Tumor Site: neuroendocrine tumor of pancreatic primary site
- Radiologic evaluation: tumor must have shown somatostatin receptor (SSTR) positivity on 68Ga-DOTATATE PET or other SSTR-PET scan in the 12 months prior to registration; however, documentation of SSTR positivity in the 6 months prior to registration is preferred. SSTR positivity is defined as uptake greater than background liver in all measurable lesions

- Patients are eligible if they meet one of the following criteria:
- Previously untreated patients with grade 2 or 3 disease AND with symptoms of either disease bulk causing pain, anorexia, early satiety, large effusions/ascites, abdominal pain, abdominal fullness due to hepatomegaly, dyspnea) OR incompletely controlled symptoms of hormone excess despite somatostatin analogue (SSA) and supportive care (including but not limited to: diarrhea, hypercalcemia, hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, flushing, Cushing's syndrome). Patient may have been started on SSA for up to 2 months for attempted symptom control without disease progression prior to registration
- Patients previously treated with SSA only
- Any patient with disease progression by RECIST criteria in < 4 months
- Patients must have measurable disease per RECIST v1.1 by computer tomography (CT) scan or magnetic imaging (MRI). Any lesions which have undergone percutaneous therapies or radiotherapy after starting protocol therapy should not be considered measurable unless the lesion has clearly progressed since the procedure.
- Lesions must be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as >= 1 cm with CT or MRI (or shortest diameter >= 1.5 cm for lymph nodes). Non-measurable disease includes disease smaller than these dimensions or lesions considered truly non- measurable including: leptomeningeal disease, bone metastases, ascites, pleural or pericardial effusion, lymphangitic involvement of skin or lung.
- No prior temozolomide, dacarbazine, capecitabine, 5-FU, or any PRRT for treatment of the pNET
- Prior treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) such as mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors (e.g. everolimus, temsirolimus, etc.) or VEGF pathway inhibitors (e.g. sunitinib, pazopanib, cabozantinib, bevacizumab, etc.) are allowed
- Prior treatment with hepatic intra-arterial embolic therapies is allowed if there is recovery from all toxicities, measurable lesions do not include embolized liver unless there has been clear subsequent progression, all measurable lesions are somatostatin receptor avid, and treatment completed at least 2 months prior to registration
- Prior treatment with cryoablation or thermal/radiofrequency ablation of metastases is allowed if there is recovery from all toxicities, measurable lesions do not include treated metastases, and treatment completed at least 2 months prior to registration
- Not pregnant and not nursing, because this study involves an agent that has known genotoxic, mutagenic, and teratogenic effects
- Therefore, for women of childbearing potential only, a negative pregnancy test done =< 14 days prior to registration is required
- Age >= 18 years
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1,500/mm^3
- Platelet count >= 100,000/mm^3

- No known brain metastases unless adequately treated, demonstrated to be stable, and off all treatment (including steroids) for at least 2 months prior to registration
- No uncontrolled congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association [NYHA] II, III, IV).
- No significant medical, psychiatric, or surgical condition, currently uncontrolled by treatment, which may pose a risk to patient safety
- No "currently active" second malignancy other than non-melanoma skin cancers or cervical carcinoma in situ. Patients are not considered to have a "currently active" malignancy if they have completed therapy or are on adjuvant hormonal therapy and are free of disease for >= 3 years
- No known medical condition causing an inability to swallow and no known impairment of gastrointestinal function that may significantly alter the absorption of an oral agent
- Concurrent somatostatin analog use while on protocol therapy is allowed provided that the patient:

- Has been on a stable dose of somatostatin analog therapy for at least three months
- Has previously demonstrated radiographic disease progression while on somatostatin analog therapy. For subjects receiving lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, there should be a minimum of 28 days between long-acting somatostatin analogue and lutetium Lu 177 dotatate dosing. Short-acting somatostatin analogs should not be administered within 24 hours of lutetium Lu 177 dotatate dosing.

About this study
Official title: Phase II Randomized, Prospective Trial of Lutetium Lu 177 Dotatate PRRT Versus Capecitabine and Temozolomide in Well-Differentiated Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors
This phase II trial compares the effect of combination therapy with capecitabine and temozolomide to lutetium Lu 177 dotatate for the treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors that have spread to other parts of the body (advanced) or that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Temozolomide and capecitabine are considered chemotherapy drugs. Temozolomide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It damages the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid and may kill cancer cells. Capecitabine is in a class of medications called antimetabolites. It is taken up by cancer cells and breaks down into fluorouracil, a substance that kills cancer cells. Lutetium Lu 177-dotate is a radioactive drug. It binds to a protein called somatostatin receptor, which is found on some neuroendocrine tumor cells. Lutetium Lu 177-dotatate, builds up in these cells and gives off radiation that may kill them. It is a type of radioconjugate and a type of somatostatin analog. Treatment with lutetium Lu 177 dotatate may be more effective than combination therapy with temozolomide and capecitabine in shrinking or stabilizing cancer in patients with advanced or unresectable neuroendocrine tumors.
Read the detailed description
This phase II trial compares capecitabine and temozolomide to lutetium Lu 177 dotatate for the treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors that have spread to other parts of the body (advanced) or are not able to be removed by surgery (unresectable). Chemotherapy drugs, such as capecitabine and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radioactive drugs, such as lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and may reduce harm to normal cells. The purpose of this study is to find out whether capecitabine and temozolomide or lutetium Lu 177 dotatate may kill more tumor cells in patients with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
The primary and secondary objectives of the study:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
- To determine the differences in median progression-free survival (PFS) for lutetium Lu 177 dotatate peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) when compared to capecitabine and temozolomide (CAPTEM) in patients with locally advanced or metastatic progressive, well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
- To evaluate and compare the overall survival (OS) of patients receiving lutetium Lu 177 dotatate versus (vs.) CAPTEM.
II. To evaluate and compare time to response, time to maximum response, and overall response rates (ORR) by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 between both arms.
III. To evaluate and compare duration of response and time to progression among both arms.
IV. To evaluate and compare treatment related toxicities between the arms. V. To compare global health status/quality of life as measured with the European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ)-C30 from baseline through 18 months between patients with pNET treated with lutetium Lu 177 dotatate PRRT versus capecitabine and temozolomide.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I: Patients receive lutetium Lu 177 dotatate intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on day 1 of each cycle. Treatment repeats every 8 weeks for up to 4 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo collection of blood samples prior to registration, on days 1 and 29 of each cycle, during post-treatment follow-up, and at progressive disease, withdrawal or removal from study. Patients undergo PET prior to registration, and CT and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) prior to registration and then every 3 months until progression.
ARM II: Patients receive capecitabine orally (PO) twice daily (BID) days 1-14 of each cycle and temozolomide PO once daily (QD) on days 10-14 of each cycle. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks for up to 12 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo collection of blood samples prior to registration, on day 1 of each cycle, and at progressive disease, withdrawal, or removal from study. Patients undergo PET prior to registration, and CT and/or MRI prior to registration and then every 3 months until progression.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression free survival (PFS)
Progression free survival (PFS) will be compared between the two treatment arms using Kaplan-Meier methods. The hazard ratio (HR) and median PFS will be estimated along with corresponding 95% confidence intervals.
Measured: Up to 8 years from randomization
Secondary outcomes (10)
Progression Free Survival (PFS) at 2 years
Kaplan-Meier methodology will be used to estimate the PFS rate at 2 years.
Measured: At 2 years from randomization
Progression Free Survival (PFS) at 3 years
Kaplan-Meier methodology will be used to estimate the PFS rate at 3 years.
Measured: At 3 years from randomization
Time to progression (TTP)
Kaplan-Meier methodology will be used to estimate the median time to progression (TTP).
Measured: Up to 8 years from randomization
Overall survival (OS)
Kaplan-Meier methodology will be used to estimate the median overall survival (OS). OS is defined as randomization to the time of death due to any cause (or censored at the time of last contact for surviving patients and those lost to follow-up).
Measured: Up to 8 years from study registration
Objective response rate (ORR)
The response rate (percentage) is the percent of patients whose best response was Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria. Percentage of successes will be estimated by 100 times the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients. Response rates (including complete and partial response) will be tested using Fisher's exact test.
Measured: Up to 8 years from randomization
Time-to response
Kaplan-Meier methodology will be used to estimate the median time-to-response. Time-to-response will be defined as the time from randomization to the first tumor response, for those patients having achieved an objective response.
Measured: Up to 8 years from randomization
Duration of response
Kaplan-Meier methodology will be used to estimate the median duration of response. Duration of response will be defined as the time from first assessment with documented response (PR or CR) to the time of progression and/or death. Patients who are still responding as of their last evaluation will be censored at the time point. If we observed documented deaths without progression, we will further evaluate this endpoint with death without progression treated as a competing risk.
Measured: Up to 8 years from randomization
Incidence of adverse events
Patients will be evaluated for adverse events using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0. The overall toxicity rates (percentages) for grade 3 or higher adverse events considered at least possibly related to treatment are reported.
Measured: Up to 8 years from randomization
Change in Overall Health Question (Q29) from the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire
To evaluate between-arm differences in patient-reported global health status from baseline through 18 months, the area under the curve will be calculated as a summary statistic for each arm based on estimates from a mixed model for patient-reported global health status/quality of life as assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30 at baseline, 3, 6, 12, and 18 months.
Measured: At baseline up to 18 months
Change in Overall Quality of Life Question (Q30) from the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire
To evaluate between-arm differences in patient-reported quality of life from baseline through 18 months, the area under the curve will be calculated as a summary statistic for each arm based on estimates from a mixed model for patient-reported global health status/quality of life as assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30 at baseline, 3, 6, 12, and 18 months.
Measured: At baseline up to 18 months
