Summary

This trial is testing how well telotristat etiprate works in treating neuroendocrine neoplasm. Telotristat etiprate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Studying the changes within the tumor cells may help doctors better understand how tumors respond to treatment with telotristat etiprate.

Eligible Conditions
  • Neuroendocrine Neoplasm
  • Carcinoid Syndrome

Timeline

Screening ~ 3 weeks
Treatment ~ Varies
Follow Up ~up to 3 months
This trial's timeline: 3 weeks for screening, Varies for treatment, and up to 3 months for reporting.
