Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) with 177Lu-Edotreotide compared to targeted molecular therapy with Everolimus in patients with inoperable, progressive, somatostatin receptor-positive (SSTR+), neuroendocrine tumours of gastroenteric or pancreatic origin (GEP-NET).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
PFS determined as time elapsed between randomization, and the date of first objective report of tumor progression (evaluated by RECIST criteria v1.1) as evaluated by the Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR), or death.
From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or death, assessed up to 30 months,
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Up to 30 months
Overall Survival (OS)
Overall Survival (OS) will be followed up for 5 years (60 months) after the End of Study (EOS)
Study Arms (2)
177Lu-edotreotide PRRT
EXPERIMENTAL177Lu-edotreotide (177Lu-DOTATOC) A maximum of four cycles of 7.5 ± 0.7 GBq (gigabequerel) 177Lu-edotreotide, each. Route of administration: Slow intravenous infusion/injection (i.v.) Duration of treatment: 4 cycles, 90 days apart (total duration: 270 days/9 months)
Everolimus
ACTIVE COMPARATOREverolimus (Afinitor ®) Doses: 10 mg/d Route of administration: Oral Duration of treatment: Continuous daily treatment until diagnosis of progression or End of Study (EOS)
Interventions
PRRT using 177Lu-edotreotide will be performed 3-monthly. A maximum of four cycles will be administered.
Everolimus will be administered as a standard dosis of 10 mg daily which may be reduced where required for acceptable tolerability.
The Amino-Acid Solution (AAS) to be used in this study will contain a mixture of 25 g lysine and 25 g arginine diluted in 2000 mL of electrolyte solution, infused over 4 - 6 h, starting 30 - 60 min before PRRT
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histologically confirmed diagnosis of well-differentiated neuro-endocrine tumour of non-functional gastroenteric origin (GE-NET) or both functional or non-functional pancreatic origin (P-NET)
- Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1
- Somatostatin receptor positive (SSTR+) disease
- Progressive disease based on RECIST 1.1. criteria as evidenced by two morphological imaging examinations made with the same imaging method (either CT or MRI)
You may not qualify if:
- Known hypersensitivity to edotreotide or everolimus
- Known hypersensitivity to DOTA, lutetium-177, or any excipient of edotreotide or everolimus or any other Rapamycin derivative
- Prior exposure to any peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT)
- Prior therapy with mTor inhibitors
- Prior EFR (external field radiation) to GEP-NET lesions within 90 days before randomisation or radioembolisation therapy
- Therapy with an investigational compound and/or medical device within 30 days prior to randomisation
- Indication for surgical lesion removal with curative potential
- Planned alternative therapy (for the period of study participation)
- Serious non-malignant disease
- Clinically relevant renal, hepatic, cardiovascular, or haematological organ dysfunction, potentially interfering with the safety of the study treatments
- Pregnant or breast-feeding women
- Subjects not able to declare meaningful informed consent on their own (e.g. with legal guardian for mental disorders) or any other vulnerable population to that sense (e.g. persons institutionalised, incarcerated etc.).
