About this study

Meningioma, the most common intracranial primary tumor of the central nervous system predominantly affects people in their fifties. Meningiomas are generally subdivided into two entities: a priori non-aggressive meningiomas (grade 1), and meningiomas at high risk of aggressive behavior (grade 2/atypical and 3/anaplastic). The current conventional treatments for meningioma are surgery and radiotherapy. When these treatments are no longer feasible, meningiomas are considered refractory irrespectively of grade, and in these rare entities, the therapeutic arsenal is reduced to the few treatments that have shown limited efficacy. Refractory, and particularly grades 2 and 3 meningiomas, have very poor prognoses with a progression-free survival at 6 months (PFS-6) of 26%. The European Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology group (RANO) recommends that in any new, grades 2 and 3 meningioma, therapy that achieves a PFS-6 >30% in phase II trials be considered promising.

In Nuclear Medicine, Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) with 177Lu-DOTATATE, currently used on a compassionate basis in refractory meningioma, deploys an octreotide-like effect, and appears very promising, with preliminary PFS-6 of 94% and an overall survival at 12 months (OS-12) of 88% in grade 1 meningioma. However, its PFS-6 is reduced to 28% with an OS-12 of 65% in WHO grades 2 and 3 meningioma. Recently the non-radiolabeled octreotide and everolimus combination however achieved a PFS-6 of 55% and an OS-12 of 75% in a population of 90% WHO grades 2 and 3 meningioma.

Recently the non-radiolabeled octreotide and everolimus combination however achieved a PFS-6 of 55% and an OS-12 of 75% in a population of 90% WHO grades 2 and 3 meningioma.

Our research hypothesis is that 177Lu-DOTATATE PRRT, a vector targeting somatostatin type 2 receptor (octreotide type) with a high-energy β-emitting radioactive label, when combined with everolimus, an mTOR protein inhibitor with radiosensitizing properties, will potentiate the effects of the non-radiolabeled octreotide + everolimus combination and increase PFS-6 in refractory grades 2 and 3 meningioma patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. RANO criteria (Response assessment in neuro oncology criteria)

    Progression Free Survival (PFS) from the start of treatment according to the RANO criteria (Response assessment in neuro oncology criteria)

    Measured: 7 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Overall Survival

    OS-12. Overall Survival, defined as the time from the date of inclusion to the date of death from any cause

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Tumor growth rate

    Tumor growth rate, defined as the product of the two largest diameters of the target lesion from the MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) at Month 3 or Month 6 compared to the diameters of the lesion at baseline.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Progression Free Survival

    Dose delivered to the tumor (dosimetry) will be calculated on at least 2 skull scans with 177Lu-DOTATATE SPECT-CT (D1 and D7), after the first cycle of 177Lu-DOTATATE.

    Measured: 1 month

  4. Number and types of grade 1, 2, 3 or 4 adverse events according to the CTCAE

    Number and types of grade 1, 2, 3 or 4 adverse events according to the CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) classification per patient, from the start of treatment until 180 days after the end of the last treatment cycle.

    Measured: 180 days

  5. Questionnaire

    HRQoL (Measuring Health-related quality of life ), assessed using the EORTC (uropean Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer) QLQ-C30 (Quality of Life Control) questionnaire at inclusion (V1) and at 6 months (V7).

    Measured: 6 moniths

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Everolimus in people with Meningioma, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 2 sites in France.

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 17 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Antoine VERGER, MD,PhD (0383155567 ext. +33, a.verger@chru-nancy.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

RANO criteria (Response assessment in neuro oncology criteria) (time frame: 7 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 25 Jun 2026.
