Randomized Interval Assessment Trial of Lu177-Dotatate in Slowly Progressive G1-2 Advanced Midgut Neuroendocrine Tumors

Summary

This is a randomized Phase II/late phase I de-escalation clinical trial with approved investigational medicinal products in new use condition, low intervention.

Disease under study Patients with unresectable or metastatic, slowly progressive, well-differentiated (Grade1 and Grade2), somatostatin receptor-positive midgut neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs).

It is planned to randomize 166 patients with a histologically confirmed diagnosis of slowly progressive grade 1 or grade 2 advanced midgut neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) candidates to receive 177Lu-Dotatate targeted radioligand therapy (RLT). Patients are required to have SSTR+ disease, as evidenced on somatostatin receptor imaging. Patients will be randomized into two arms:

1. control arm: regimen 177Lu-Dotatate every 8 weeks (q8w)
2. experimental arm: regimen 177Lu-Dotatate every 16 weeks (q16w)

Research hypothesis: Less intensive somatostatin-receptor (SST) targeted radioligand therapy (RLT) (7.4 GBq/cycle 177Lu-Dotatate every 16 weeks x 4 cycles) is associated with less severe hematological toxicities and may mitigate the risk to develop therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN) with similar antitumor efficacy in slowly growing gastrointestinal grade 1-2 NETs.

Conditions

• Grade1-2 Advanced Midgut Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs)

Interventions

DRUG

177Lu-Dotatate (7.4 Gigabecquerel/cycle) during 30 min intravenous infusion every 16 weeks (q8w) x 4 cycles; 2) and 3) as in the experimental arm.

Treatment with 177Lu-Dotatate (7.4 Gigabecquerel/cycle) during 30 min intravenous infusion every 16 weeks 177Lu-Dotatate, a radiopharmaceutical medicine which is an somatostatin analogue derived from octreotide that complexes via DOTA with non-carrier added (n.c.a) 177Lu radioconjugate. 177Lu-Dotatate will be supplied as a 370 MBq/mL solution for infusion. One mL of solution contains 370 MBq The total amount of radioactivity per single-dose vial is 7 400 MBq at the date and time of infusion. Given the fixed volumetric activity of 370 MBq/mL at the date and time of calibration, the volume of the solution in the vial ranges between 20.5 and 25.0 mL in order to provide the required amount of radioactivity at the date and time of infusion of lutetium (177Lu) oxodotreotide at the date and time of calibration.

Synonyms are: 177Lu-DOTA0-Tyr 3-Octreotate, 177Lu-DOTATE LUTATHERA, lutetium (177Lu) oxodotreotide 177Lu-Dotatate will be supplied as a 370 MBq/mL solution for infusion One mL of solution contains 370 MBq The total amount of radioactivity per single-dose vial is 7 400 MBq at the date and time of infusion.

DRUG

Amino acid solution

Renal protection starting 30 minutes before RLT and lasting 4 hours (iv) amino acid solution of 14.4-20 g of lysine and 14.9-20.7 g of arginine in 1 to 2 liters of solution)

DRUG

Lanreotide (Autogel formulation) or Octreotide LAR

Long-acting standard doses of SSA (Lanreotide autogel 120 mg subcutaneous (sc) or Octreotide LAR 30 mg im, starting 24h after RLT and every 4 weeks during RLT (q16w interval SSA administration should be adjusted to RLT administrations so that SSA is always given 24h after each RLT dose and at least 4 weeks prior to next RLT administration cycle) and q4w following last RLT administration until disease progression.
