About this trial
This multicenter retrospective Italian study evaluates the efficacy and safety of PRRT in patients with advanced, unresectable or metastatic pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGL). Data from \~210 patients treated between 2000 and 2024 will be analyzed. The primary endpoint is disease control rate (DCR). Secondary endpoints include progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and prognostic factors.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Documented diagnosis of pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma (PPGL) (sporadic or hereditary forms) with unresectable or metastatic disease.
Treatment with peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) administered with ⁷⁷Lu and/or ⁹⁰Y (including combination regimens), with t0 (first PRRT administration) between January 1, 2000 and February 28, 2024.
Availability of essential data required by the protocol to document exposure (PRRT) and outcomes, including: PRRT start date (t0) and treatment details (radioisotope(s), number of cycles and/or cycles actually administered, intervals when available), At least one post-treatment evaluation suitable for determining disease control rate (DCR) (morphological imaging by CT/MRI ± functional imaging by PET/CT, and available clinical data), Follow-up information suitable for determining progression-free survival (PFS) within the predefined time window.
Availability of follow-up up to 12 months from end of treatment (EoT), or documentation of progression and/or death occurring within 12 months.
Disqualifiers
Patients who did not receive at least one cycle of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT).
Trial population
Patients with sporadic or hereditary paraganglioma and pheochromocytoma (PPGL) with unresectable or metastatic disease, treated with peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT).

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
To describe the effectiveness of PRRT in terms of disease control rate (DCR) in the overall population and by line of treatment (early vs late).
Secondary outcomes
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) after PRRT in the overall population and by line of treatment (early vs late).
Overall Survival (OS)
To evaluate overall survival (OS) at 1 year after completion of PRRT, including analysis by response category (complete response, partial response, stable disease, progressive disease).
