Active clinical trials for "Neuroendocrine Tumors"

Retrospective review of the medical files of 115 patients with neuroendocrine tumours who were treated with Lutetium-177 DOTA-TATE under Health Canada's Special Access Programme (SAP) at the Cross Cancer Institute between January 2010 and April 30, 2014. Efficacy, safety, and other relevant data will be collected to support a separate clinical trial application.

This randomized phase II trial studies how well everolimus works in treating patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors metastatic to the liver previously treated with surgery. Everolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving everolimus after surgery may kill any tumors cells that remain.

The purpose of this study is to identify predictive molecular markers of response to continuous daily sunitinib at dose of 37.5 mg used in patients with poorly-differentiated Advanced/Inoperable NEURO-Endocrine Tumors. Hypothesis: To distinguish molecular markers based on their expression at the initial biopsy, their detection by proteomic analysis and demonstrating that tumor or vascular cells are straightaway sensitive to sunitinib (markers sensitivity). The presence of these markers at the initial biopsy predict the sensitivity to sunitinib(Positive predictive value of markers)

The purpose of this study is to test how safe and effective the combination of RAD001 and erlotinib is in patients with neuroendocrine tumors.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether ABI-009 will make advanced, malignant neuroendocrine tumor(s) of the lung, gastrointestinal tract and/or pancreas that cannot be removed by surgery smaller and slow the spread of your cancer in patients who have progressed or been intolerant to everolimus. All eligible participants will receive ABI-009, the study drug.

The purpose of this study is evaluate the efficacy and safety of FOLFIRINOX in patients with gastroenteropancreatic high-grade neuroendocrine carcinomas. This is a prospective Phase II open-label trial, stratifying gastroenteropancreatic high grade neuroendocrine carcinomas participants equally into two cohorts (first-line versus beyond first-line).

This is a multicentre long-term non-interventional study of adult subjects diagnosed with unresectable or metastatic, progressive, well differentiated (G1 and G2), somatostatin receptor positive GEP-NETs who have been prescribed Lutathera® in standard clinical practice.

The purpose of this clinical phase I/II study was to investigate the safety and tolerability of satoreotide tetraxetan (177Lu-IPN01072, formerly known as 177Lu-OPS201) used for the treatment of patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). The secondary objectives of this study were the assessment of biodistribution, dosimetry and preliminary efficacy of satoreotide tetraxetan.

Background: - Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) come from cells of the hormonal and nervous systems. Some people have surgery to shrink the tumor. Sometimes the tumors come back. Researchers think that treatment with drugs based on knowing the defective gene might give better results. Objective: - To see if drugs selected based on the defective gene result in better tumor response. The drugs are Sunitinib and Everolimus. Eligibility: - People age 18 and older with an advanced low- or intermediate-grade gastrointestinal or pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor. Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Scans Blood, urine, and lab tests The study team will see if participants should have surgery. If yes, participants will: Sign a separate consent Have computed tomography (CT) scan before and after surgery Have as much of the tumor removed as possible. A small piece will be tested for mutation type. If no, participants will have a small piece of tumor removed for the testing. If the surgery might cure them, the participant will leave the study. The other participants will be assigned to take either Sunitinib or Everolimus. Participants will take their drug by mouth once a day. They will keep a medicine diary. Some will keep track of their blood pressure at least weekly. Screening tests may be repeated at study visits. Participants also may have their heart evaluated. About 30 days after the last day of their study drug, participants will have a follow-up visit that repeats the screening tests. Participants will be contacted every 3 months after this visit.

TERAVECT is a phase III randomized study of patients with digestive neuroendocrine tumors after complete surgical resection of liver metastases treated with In111-Pentetreotide-based adjuvant radiotherapy. In this study, targeted radionuclide therapy is used at an earlier stage of the disease.The objective is to target residual tumor cells and/or micrometastases which escaped surgical resection. Given the poor prognosis associated with recurrence, this treatment should prevent relapse.
