Dose Escalation Study of Pasireotide (SOM230) in Patients With Advanced Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs)

December 17, 2020 updated by: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

A Phase I, Multi-center, Open-label, Dose Escalation Study of Pasireotide (SOM230) LAR in Patients With Advanced Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs)

This study designed to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) for patients with advanced Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs) and to characterize the safety, tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of pasireotide LAR administered i.m. once every 28 days.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Determine the MTD/RP2D of pasireotide LAR when administered i.m. q28 days to patients with advanced NETs
Time Frame: Sequentiona 56 day cohorts until the MTD is determined
Frequency of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) at each dose level associated with q28 days administration of pasireotide LAR during the first 2 treatment cycles.
Sequentiona 56 day cohorts until the MTD is determined

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
assess the safety and tolerability of pasireotide LAR
Time Frame: minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles
Incidence of adverse drug events, overall and by severity and incidence of serious adverse events and laboratory abnormalities. Also, changes in laboratory assessments, electrocardiograms, Holter monitor, imaging for gallstones, and assessment of physical examinations such as vital signs
minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles
assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of pasireotide LAR
Time Frame: minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles
Pasireotide Cmax and Ctrough
minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles
assess the pharmacodynamics (PD) of pasireotide LAR
Time Frame: minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles
Changes from baseline values in IGF-1, chromogranin A and neuron-specific enolase
minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles
assess the preliminary efficacy (anti-tumor activity) of pasireotide LAR.
Time Frame: minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles
Disease control rate (CR+PR+SD as assessed by RECIST 1.0). Also measure progression free survival (PFS).
minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles
