About this trial

This is a phase I, open-label study to assess the safety and preliminary efficacy of Fulvestrant in combination with 177Lu-DOTATATE for advanced pNETs.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients must have histologically confirmed pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, WHO grades 1-2, Ki-67 index of <20%.

Patients must have locally advanced disease that is ineligible for curative-intent resection, or metastatic disease.

Patients must have measurable disease, defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded for non-nodal lesions and short axis for nodal lesions) as ≥20 mm with conventional techniques or as ≥10 mm with spiral CT scan, MRI, or calipers by clinical exam.

Patients must also have tumors expressing somatostatin receptor, defined as radiotracer avid lesions as assessed by a previous DOTATATE PET scan.

Disqualifiers

Patients who are unable to provide or understand written informed consent and comply with scheduled visits, drug administration plan, laboratory tests, or other study procedures and study restrictions.

Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents.

Patients with a "currently active" second malignancy other than non-melanoma skin cancers. Patients are not considered to have a "currently active" malignancy if they have completed therapy and are free of disease for ≥ 3 years.

Pregnant or breastfeeding.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Objective Response Rate (ORR)

The rates of tumor response categories (CR, PR, SD, PD, Not Evaluated, Too Early) will be summarized and compared to historical control of response to PRRT treatment.

Time frame
Through study completion, an average of 2 years
2

Safety

Safety will be measured by the incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events.

Time frame
8 months for duration of the treatment (until the post-treatment safety follow-up visit)

Secondary outcomes

1

Progression Free Survival

Time from registration to either disease progression or death.

Time frame
Through study completion, an average of 2 years
2

Progression Free Survival

Time from registration to either disease progression or death after 12 months

Time frame
12 months
3

Overall Survival

Time from registration to death.
