Gastrointestinal Motility in Patients With Neuroendocrine Tumors
Neuroendocrine TumorWe will study the total gastrointestinal transit time (GITT), gastric emptying and small intestine motility in NET patients before and after treated with somatostatin analogues and compare these to healthy subjects. For this we will use radio-opaque markers and the newly developed Motility Tracking System (MTS). Hypothesis: Patients with NET and carcinoid syndrome have decreased GITT, gastric emptying and small bowel transit time and an increase in phase III MMC activity compared to healthy subjects. Treatment with somatostatin analogues increase transit times and decrease phase III MMC activity and improves the clinical symptoms.
Best Therapy for Patients With Neuroendocrine Tumors
Neuroendocrine TumorsA prospective observational study containing three arms comprising different therapeutic measures to treat patients with neuroendocrine tumors in advanced stages. The therapy arms include local ablative therapy such as TACE or SIRT, surgery and RFA with peptide receptor radiotherapy.
Perception of Information and Quality of Life in Neuroendocrine Tumour on Lanreotide Autogel
Neuroendocrine TumorsThe purpose of the study is to evaluate, in standard practice, the change in information received and perceived by the patient, extension of the disease and its treatment. These parameters will be evaluated by means of validated self-administered questionnaires that can be used in standard practice.
United Kingdom (UK) Patient Preference Study of Somatuline Autogel and Treatment Administration...
Neuroendocrine Tumours (NET)The aim of the study is to generate real-world evidence to describe the patient experience of administration of Somatuline® Autogel® (lanreotide) in homecare and hospital settings, and the associated impact on healthcare utilisation, societal cost, work productivity and health-related quality of life (HRQoL)
Prospective Comprehensive Molecular Profiling In Neuroendocrine Tumors
Neuroendocrine TumorsPancreatic Neuroendocrine TumorsProspective study to obtain fresh tumor biopsies and three blood samples from patients with a confirmed histological or cytological diagnosis of well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) or well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs) for molecular profiling.
Nonfunctional Pancreatic NET and PET Imaging
DiagnosisPredicting aggressive behavior in the group of nonfunctional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NF P-NET) remains a difficult problem in clinical practice. At present, the treatment planning in P-NET is significantly restricted by the limited results of conventional imaging. In addition, increasing use of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasing the number of NF P-NETs detected. Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS) combined with anatomical imaging are the conventional modalities in imaging of P-NET, but by these methods the diagnostic accuracy still remains compromised. Furthermore, recently encouraging results have been obtained in P-NET using 68Ga-labelled somatostatin analog, DOTA-1-NaI3-octreotide (68Ga-DOTANOC) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT). The aim of the current project is to evaluate the possibility to enhance the diagnostic accuracy by using dual trace functional imaging 18F-labelled fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) and 68Ga-DOTANOC PET-CT imaging in patients with NF P-NET. The study consists of 20 patients with NF P-NET. The patients enrolled in the study will be imaged 68Ga-DOTANOC and 18F-FDG PET-CT followed by surgery or follow-up with endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) biopsies. The data will be collected between autumn 2015 and spring 2018.
Somatuline Predictive Factors in Acromegaly and NET
AcromegalyNeuroendocrine TumoursThe aim of the study is to identify predictive factors for the response to Lanreotide treatment in Acromegaly as well as in Neuroendocrine Tumours.
EAP 177Lu-DOTA0-Tyr3-Octreotate for Inoperable, SSR+, NETs, Progressive Under SSA Tx
Neuroendocrine TumorsAdvanced Accelerator Applications is currently pursuing marketing approval for 177Lu-DOTA0-Tyr3-Octreotate (Lutathera). This expanded access therapeutic protocol aims to allow patients suffering from inoperable, somatostatin receptor positive, neuroendocrine tumors, progressive under somatostatin analogue therapy to access the investigational product, 177Lu-DOTA0-Tyr3-Octreotate (Lutathera), prior to its commercial availability.
Optimising Molecular Radionuclide Therapy
Neuroendocrine TumorsHyperthyroidism2 moreThis project will examine the role of the whole body, PET and SPECT imaging before, during and after radionuclide treatment for 177Lu-Dotatate therapy, whole body and SPECT imaging for 131-I for thyroid cancer therapy, and whole-body imaging for 131I for hyperthyroidism therapy. Whole-body and SPECT images will be linked to personal dosimeter readings to determine whether Current radiation protection advice for patients receiving radionuclide treatment is appropriate. Radiopharmaceutical retention and/or SUV change in patients undergoing repeated radionuclide treatments. Data combined from early (quantitative imaging) and late (whole-body dose rate measurements) could support individual treatment planning for patients undergoing repeated cycles of molecular therapy.
Expanded Access Program of Surufatinib
Neuroendocrine TumorsThis treatment protocol is intended to provide early access of surufatinib to patients with locally advanced or metastatic NETs for whom, in the opinion of their treating physician, other treatment options or surufatinib clinical trials in this indication are unsuitable. This EAP is currently available in the US only.
