Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?This trial is testing a new treatment that uses a radioactive drug to target and kill specific cancer cells in patients with certain types of neuroendocrine tumors. It aims to see if this method is more effective and safer than current treatments.
Do I need to stop my current medications to join the trial?

The trial information does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. However, if you are on an investigational drug, you must stop it at least 30 days before joining the trial.

What data supports the effectiveness of the treatment 177Lu-Edotreotide for neuroendocrine tumors?

Research shows that a similar treatment, 177Lu-DOTATATE, is effective for neuroendocrine tumors that express somatostatin receptors, providing symptomatic and radiological improvements in patients with inoperable or metastatic tumors.

Is 177Lu-Edotreotide PRRT generally safe for humans?

177Lu-Edotreotide PRRT is generally considered safe, but it can have side effects like potential toxicity to the kidneys, liver, and blood cells, and there is a risk of developing a second cancer. These side effects have been observed in studies, even though the treatment is effective for certain types of tumors.

12367
How is the treatment 177Lu-Edotreotide different from other treatments for neuroendocrine tumors?

177Lu-Edotreotide is a type of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) that uses a radioactive substance to target and bind to specific receptors on neuroendocrine tumor cells, delivering radiation directly to the tumor. This approach is unique because it combines a targeted delivery system with radiation therapy, potentially offering a more focused treatment with fewer side effects compared to traditional chemotherapy.

Symptomatic and Radiological Response to 177Lu-DOTATATE for the Treatment of Functioning Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors. [2020]Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) with the radiolabeled somatostatin analogue [Lutetium-177-DOTA0-Tyr3]octreotate (177Lu-DOTATATE) is widely applied for inoperable metastatic small intestinal and nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs). The aim of this study is to describe the safety and efficacy of the treatment of functioning pNETs.
Safety and Effectiveness of 177Lu-DOTATATE Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy After Regional Hepatic Embolization in Patients With Somatostatin-Expressing Neuroendocrine Tumors. [2022]Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) with Lu-DOTATATE is shown to be an effective therapeutic option for somatostatin-expressing neuroendocrine neoplasms. Some concerns are raised over safety of this modality in patients with a history of regional chemoembolization and radionuclide hepatic embolization (CRHE) and is cause of reluctance among some physicians for suggesting Lu-DOTATATE in this patient population.
Efficacy of [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE in metastatic neuroendocrine neoplasms of different locations: data from the SEPTRALU study. [2023]Label="BACKGROUND" NlmCategory="BACKGROUND">Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is one of the most promising therapeutic strategies in neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs). Nevertheless, its role in certain tumor sites remains unclear. This study sought to elucidate the efficacy and safety of [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE in NENs with different locations and evaluate the effect of the tumor origin, bearing in mind other prognostic variables. Advanced NENs overexpressing somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) on functional imaging, of any grade or location, treated at 24 centers were enrolled. The protocol consisted of four cycles of 177Lu-DOTATATE 7.4 GBq iv every 8 weeks (NCT04949282).
Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy With 177Lu-Octreotate in Patients With Somatostatin Receptor Expressing Neuroendocrine Tumors: Six Years' Assessment. [2020]Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) with radiolabeled somatostatin analogues is a promising treatment for patients with inoperable, well to moderately differentiated metastatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). In continuation of our novel study with the radionuclide lutetium Lu, we now present further results of Lu DOTATATE therapy in managing NETs and other somatostatin receptor-expressing tumors in a larger and more diverse patient group.
ACR-ACNM-ASTRO-SNMMI Practice Parameter for Lutetium-177 (Lu-177) DOTATATE Therapy. [2023]This practice parameter (PP) for Lutetium-177 (Lu-177) DOTATATE peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) aims to guide authorized users in selection of appropriate adult candidates with gastroeneropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) from foregut, midgut, and hindgut. The essential selection criteria include somatostatin receptor-positive GEP-NETs, which are usually inoperable and progressed despite standard therapy. Lu-177 DOTATATE is a radiopharmaceutical with high avidity for somatostatin receptors that are overexpressed by these tumors. This document ensures safe handling of Lu-177 DOTATATE by the authorized users and safe management of affected patients.
Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy with 177Lu-DOTA-octreotate: dosimetry, nephrotoxicity, and the effect of hematological toxicity on survival. [2018]Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) with lutetium-177 (Lu)-DOTATATE is regarded as a safe treatment option with promising results for patients with neuroendocrine neoplasia (NEN). We aimed to study the absorbed organ and tumor doses, the renal and hematological toxicity as well as their mutual interaction. Another aim was the identification of adverse effects as possible predictors which may affect survival.
Lutetium Lu-177 Dotatate Flare Reaction. [2022]Lutetium Lu-177 dotatate is the first peptide receptor radionuclide therapy approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. Well-designed studies in Europe have shown dramatic effectiveness in improving progression-free survival in patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, which are progressive and generally metastatic. This therapy is a molecular targeted therapy linking a beta-emitting radioisotope to dotatate, which binds tightly to somatostatin receptors on neuroendocrine tumors cells. Various adverse effects of this therapy have been reported in the literature, including potential toxicity to renal, hepatic, and hematologic tissues and risk of second malignancy. Our study sought to explore acute adverse effects in this patient population.
90Y/177Lu-DOTATOC: From Preclinical Studies to Application in Humans. [2021]The PRRT (Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy) is a promising modality treatment for patients with inoperable or metastatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of these patients are favorably comparable with standard therapies. The protagonist in this type of therapy is a somatostatin-modified peptide fragment ([Tyr3] octreotide), equipped with a specific chelating system (DOTA) capable of creating a stable bond with β-emitting radionuclides, such as yttrium-90 and lutetium-177. In this review, covering twenty five years of literature, we describe the characteristics and performances of the two most used therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals for the NETs radio-treatment: [90Y]Y-DOTATOC and [177Lu]Lu-DOTATOC taking this opportunity to retrace the most significant results that have determined their success, promoting them from preclinical studies to application in humans.

[2021]Label="BACKGROUND" NlmCategory="BACKGROUND"> 177Lu peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is a recently approved therapy in Spain that has been demonstrated to be a well-tolerated therapy for positive somatostatin receptor advanced gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
