Retrospective Analysis of Patients Re-treated With Lutetium-177 DOTATATE (Lutathera®)

April 16, 2023 updated by: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

This was a retrospective non-interventional study evaluating the medical records of patients with neuroendocrine tumor (NET) re-treated with lutetium-177 DOTATATE at a single United States institution - the Excel Diagnostics & Nuclear Oncology Center in Houston, Texas. Initial treatment was defined as the initial regimen of up to 4 doses of Lutetium-177 DOTATATE received by each patient; re-treatment was defined as any additional dose(s) of lutetium-177 DOTATATE given after the patient progressed following the initial treatment, with a minimum time interval of 6 months between the initial treatment and re-treatment.

The study period was from 01 January 2010 to 30 June 2021. The index date was the date of the first ever treatment with lutetium-177 DOTATATE, and the index re-treatment date was the date of the first re-treatment dose of lutetium-177 DOTATATE received. The index (identification) period was from 01 July 2010 to 31 December 2020 to account for minimum 6-month baseline and follow-up periods. Patients were followed from the index date to the occurrence of one of the following events (whichever came first):

  1. Date of death - the date at which a patient was reported in the database as having died
  2. Last month active - the last recorded mention of the patient in the dataset
  3. End of data window - end of the dataset Patient characteristics were assessed at both the index date and the index re-treatment date. Real-world effectiveness and safety outcomes were also assessed from the index date and from the index re-treatment date.

Conditions

Conditions

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
