A Prospective Single-Arm, Multi-Centre, Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Lutetium-177 Octreotate (Lu-DOTATATE) Treatment With Individualized Dosimetry in Patients With 68Ga-DOTATATE Identified Somatostatin Receptor Positive Neuroendocrine Tumors

πŸ”΅ Active, Not Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic πŸ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: University Health Network, Toronto

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This is a prospective single arm, multicenter study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Lutetium-177 Octreotate in patients with neuroendocrine tumors who has positive Somatostatin receptor identified by 68Ga-DOTATATE. 195 patients will be enrolled totally. Patient who has progressed with neuroendocrine tumor will be evaluated by the tumor board first and eligible patients will undergo diagnostic Ga 68 PET scan. Patients who showed Somatostatin will undergo 4 cycles of Lu-DOTATATE treatment. Dose adjustment for Cycle 2-4 will be made based on individualized dosimetry, as well as creatinine clearance and hematological parameters. Patients will be evaluated progression free survival at 12 months from last dose. Patients who are negative for somatostatin will not receive 68Ga-DOTATATE treatment but will be followed until progression and acts as control group.
