68Ga-DOTA-TOC PET/CT in Imaging Participants With Neuroendocrine Tumors

February 11, 2021 updated by: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

An Expanded Access Imaging of Neuroendocrine Tumors Using 68Ga-DOTA-TOC

This trial studies how well gallium Ga 68-edotreotide (68Ga-DOTA-TOC) positron emission tomography (PET)/computer tomography (CT) works in imaging participants with neuroendocrine tumors. 68Ga-DOTA-TOC is used as a tracer chemical during PET/CT scans. Diagnostic procedures, such as 68Ga-DOTA-TOC PET/CT, may help find and diagnose neuroendocrine tumors.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To substitute 68Ga-DOTATOC for 111In-pentetreotide on an expanded access basis, in tumor imaging for study subjects, where the care provider believes that somatostatin imaging is clinically indicated, until such time as 68Ga-DOTATOC becomes commercially available.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To gain experience in the utility of 68Ga-DOTATOC in the management of neuroendocrine tumors at The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC).

II. To acquire proficiency in generating 68Ga-DOTATOC for human use at MDACC.

OUTLINE:

Participants receive gallium Ga 68-edotreotide intravenously. After 1 hour, participants undergo PET/CT scan over 60 minutes.

After completion of study, participants are followed up at 24 hours or within 72 hours, and at 30 days.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Ability of the subject, or the legally authorized representative (LAR), if the patient is deemed by the treating physician to be cognitively impaired or questionably impaired in such a way that the ability of the patient to give informed consent is questionable, to understand, and the willingness to sign, a written informed consent

  • All participants must meet one of the following:

    • Patients diagnosed or suspected to have neuroendocrine tumors (NET), who require 111In-pentetreotide imaging for clinical indications
    • Subjects with a high risk of NET because of familial predisposition, and also have clinical findings which require radiolabeled somatostatin imaging
    • Other somatostatin-positive tumors for which 111In-pentetreotide has been used successfully, such as adult meningiomas
    • Patients with suspected neuroendocrine tumor, unknown primary NET, metastatic NET, or other tumors, such as meningiomas, in whom the primary physician considers somatostatin imaging to be clinically indicated
    • Other NET subjects, whether asymptomatic or symptomatic, sporadic or familial, such as Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome (VHL) and multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1), will also be included

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnant women are excluded from this study because the effects of 68Ga-DOTATOC in pregnancy are not known; exceptions may be granted only if the expected risk outweighs the benefit, in the clinical opinion of the attending physician. Pregnancy testing will follow MD Anderson procedure for diagnostic reagents. Self-reporting is used to assess pregnancy status. If the subject is unsure about her status, a urine or serum pregnancy test will be performed before inclusion
  • Lactating women are excluded if patient is unwilling to suspend lactation for at least one day following the administration of 68Ga-DOTATOC to the mother, because of the unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to administration of the radionuclide to a lactating woman
  • Subjects with known contraindications to the use of 111In-pentetreotide
  • Known severe allergy or hypersensitivity to oral contrast precludes administration of oral contrast only
  • Patients with a body weight of 400 pounds or more, or a body mass index (BMI) which precludes their entry into the bore of the PET/CT scanner, because of the resulting probable compromise in image quality with CT, PET/CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
  • Any additional medical condition, serious intercurrent illness, or other extenuating circumstance that, in the opinion of the investigator may significantly interfere with study compliance
