Interventions
Pasireotide LAR will be administered intramuscularly (i.m.) every 28 days until pasireotide becomes commercially available and reimbursed or until 31 December 2015, whichever occurs first.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients with confirmed diagnosis of active acromegaly with elevated IGF-1 (\>ULN) and random GH (\>1 μg/L) within 30 days of screening.
- Patients who are not controlled by pituitary surgery or who are not eligible for or refuse surgery.
- For patients on medical treatment for acromegaly the following washout periods must be completed before screening assessments are performed:
- Dopamine agonists (bromocriptine, cabergoline): 4 weeks
- GH-receptor antagonists (pegvisomant): 8 weeks
- Somatostatin analogues: no washout period required
- Karnofsky performance status ≥ 60.
You may not qualify if:
- Concomitant treatment with somatostatin analogues unless concomitant treatment was discontinued 28 days before first pasireotide LAR injection is administrated.
- Concomitant treatment with growth hormone receptor (GHR)-antagonists or dopamine agonists unless concomitant treatment was discontinued and the washout period was completed before the screening assessments are performed.
- Patients with compression of the optic chiasm causing any visual field defect for whom surgical intervention is indicated.
- Patients who require a surgical intervention for relief of any sign or symptom associated with tumor compression.
- Patients who have undergone major surgery/surgical therapy for any cause within 4 weeks of screening.
- Patients who have received radiotherapy of the pituitary within 4 weeks prior to screening or have not recovered from side effects of radiotherapy.
- Patients who have a history of hypothyroidism and who are not adequately treated with stable doses of thyroid hormone replacement therapy.
- Patients with active malignant disease within the last five years (with the exception of basal cell carcinoma or carcinoma in situ of the cervix).
- Diabetic patients whose blood glucose is poorly controlled.
