About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors focused on measuring GEP-NET, PPGL, adolescents, pediatric, Lutathera, Lutetium [177Lu] oxodotreotide, Lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy, PRRT
Eligibility Criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria:
GEP-NET cohort: presence of metastasized or locally advanced, inoperable (curative intent), histologically proven, G1 or G2 (Ki-67 index =< 20%), well differentiated GEP-NET.
or PPGL cohort: presence of metastasized or locally advanced, inoperable (curative intent), histologically proven PPGL.
- Patients from 12 to < 18 years of age at the time of enrollment.
- Expression of somatostatin receptors confirmed by a somatostatin receptor imaging (SRI) modality within 3 months prior to enrollment, with tumor uptake observed in the target lesions more or equal to the normal liver uptake.
- Performance status as determined by Karnofsky score >= 50 or Lansky Play-Performance Scale score >= 50.
- Parent's ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document for adolescents as determined by local regulations. Adolescents will sign assent along with parental/legal guardian consent or will co-sign consent with parent/legal guardian in accordance with local regulation, prior to participation in the study.
Key Exclusion Criteria:
Laboratory parameters:
- Estimated creatinine clearance calculated by the Cockroft-Gault method < 70 mL/min
- Hb concentration <5.0 mmol/L (<8.0 g/dL); WBC <2x109/L; platelets <75x109/L.
- Total bilirubin >3 x ULN for age.
- Serum albumin <3.0 g/dL unless prothrombin time is within the normal range.
- Established or suspected pregnancy.
- Breastfeeding female patients unless they accept to discontinue breastfeeding from the 1st dose until 3 months after the last administration of study drug.
- Female patients of child-bearing potential, unless they are using highly effective methods of contraception during treatment and for 6 months after the last dose of Lutathera.
- Sexually active male patients, unless they agree to remain abstinent or be willing to use effective methods of contraception.
- Patients for whom in the opinion of the investigator other therapeutic options are considered more appropriate than the therapy offered in the study, based on patient and disease characteristics.
- Current spontaneous urinary incontinence.
- Other known co-existing malignancies except non-melanoma skin cancer and carcinoma in situ of the uterine cervix, unless definitively treated and proven no evidence of recurrence for 5 years.
- Hypersensitivity to the study drug active substance or to any of the excipients.
- Patients with any other significant medical, psychiatric, or surgical condition, currently uncontrolled by treatment, which may interfere with the completion of the study.
- Patient with known incompatibility to CT Scans with I.V. contrast due to allergic reaction or renal insufficiency. If such a patient can be imaged with MRI, then the patient would not be excluded.
- Patients who received any investigational agent within the last 30 days.
