Summary

Background:

A neuroendocrine tumor is a rare type of tumor. It comes from body cells called neuroendocrine cells. Sometimes, these tumors develop in the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas. Researchers want to find out if a combination of drugs can shrink these tumors.

Objective:

To learn if people with certain neuroendocrine tumors can take a combination of 2 drugs, Lutathera and Olaparib, without having severe side effects, and if this treatment makes the tumors shrink.

Eligibility:

Adults 18 and older who have a neuroendocrine tumor in the pancreas or intestine that cannot be cured by surgery and has somatostatin receptors on the cells.

Design:

Eligible participants will get Lutathera through an intravenous (IV) infusion every 8 weeks for 4 cycles. One cycle is 8 weeks. Each cycle includes a follow-up visit at week 4. For the IV, a small plastic tube is put into an arm vein.

Participants will also take Olaparib by mouth twice a day for 4 weeks of each cycle. They will use a medicine diary to track the doses.

During the study, participants will have physical exams. They will have blood and urine tests. They will fill out questionnaires about their general well-being and function. Their heart function will be tested. They will have scans of their chest, abdomen, and pelvis. One type of scan will use an IV infusion of a radioactive tracer.

Participants will have a follow-up visit about 4 weeks after treatment ends. Then they will have follow-up visits every 12 weeks for 3 years. Then they will have yearly phone calls.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Lu-177-DOTATATE

Lu-177-DOTATATE will be given by IV every 8 (+/-2) weeks for a total of 4 administrations

DRUG

Olaparib

Olaparib is given as a pill taken orally and is to be taken twice a day, starting from 2 days before the first administration of Lu-177-DOTATATE until 4 weeks after the last administration

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Ga dotatate scanning

Ga68-DOTATATE PET/CT scan will be done at baseline, at week 32, then every 24 weeks in followup period.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

FDG-PET scanning

F18-FDG PET/CT scan will be done at baseline, at week 32, then every 24 weeks in followup period.

DRUG

Amino Acid infusion

Concomitant administration of an IV infusion of an amino acid (AA) solution will also be done for renal protection. The AA infusion will begin at least 30-60 minutes prior to injection of Lu-177-DOTATATE and will continue during and after the Lutathera infusion until the entire prescribed amount is infused.
