A phase I/II study of the safety and efficacy of [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-satoreotide tetraxetan in advanced somatostatin receptor-positive neuroendocrine tumours.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

We present the results of an open-label, phase I/II study evaluating the safety and efficacy of the novel somatostatin receptor (SSTR) antagonist [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-satoreotide tetraxetan in 40 patients with previously treated, progressive neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), in which dosimetry was used to guide maximum administered activity.

Methods

This study was conducted in two parts. Part A consisted of 15 patients who completed three cycles of [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-satoreotide tetraxetan at a fixed administered activity and peptide amount per cycle (4.5 GBq/300 µg). Part B, which included 25 patients who received one to five cycles of [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-satoreotide tetraxetan, evaluated different administered activities (4.5 or 6.0 GBq/cycle) and peptide amounts (300, 700, or 1300 μg/cycle), limited to a cumulative absorbed radiation dose of 23 Gy to the kidneys and 1.5 Gy to the bone marrow.

Results

Median cumulative administered activity of [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-satoreotide tetraxetan was 13.0 GBq over three cycles (13.1 GBq in part A and 12.9 GBq in part B). Overall, 17 (42.5%) patients experienced grade ≥ 3 treatment‑related adverse events; the most common were lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, and neutropenia. No grade 3/4 nephrotoxicity was observed. Two patients developed myeloid neoplasms considered treatment related by the investigator. Disease control rate for part A and part B was 94.7% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 82.3-99.4), and overall response rate was 21.1% (95% CI: 9.6-37.3).

Conclusion

[¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-satoreotide tetraxetan, administered at a median cumulative activity of 13.0 GBq over three cycles, has an acceptable safety profile with a promising clinical response in patients with progressive, SSTR-positive NETs. A 5-year long-term follow-up study is ongoing.

Project description:Radiolabeled somatostatin analog therapy has become an established treatment method for patients with well to moderately differentiated unresectable or metastatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). The most frequently used somatostatin analogs in clinical practice are octreotide and octreotate. However, both peptides showed suboptimal retention within tumors. The aim of this first-in-humans study is to explore the safety and dosimetry of a long-acting radiolabeled somatostatin analog, 177Lu-1, 4, 7, 10-tetra-azacyclododecane-1, 4, 7, 10-tetraacetic acid-Evans blue-octreotate (177Lu-DOTA-EB-TATE). Methods: Eight patients (6 men and 2 women; age range, 27-61 y) with advanced metastatic NETs were recruited. Five patients received a single dose, 0.35-0.70 GBq (9.5-18.9 mCi), of 177Lu-DOTA-EB-TATE and underwent serial whole-body planar and SPECT/CT scans at 2, 24, 72, 120, and 168 h after injection. The other 3 patients received intravenous injection of 0.28-0.41 GBq (7.5-11.1 mCi) of 177Lu-DOTATATE for the same imaging acquisition procedures at 1, 3, 4, 24, and 72 h after injection. The dosimetry was calculated using the OLINDA/EXM 1.1 software. Results: Administration of 177Lu-DOTA-EB-TATE was well tolerated, with no adverse symptoms being noticed or reported in any of the patients. Compared with 177Lu-DOTATATE, 177Lu-DOTA-EB-TATE showed extended circulation in the blood and achieved a 7.9-fold increase of tumor dose delivery. The total-body effective doses were 0.205 ± 0.161 mSv/MBq for 177Lu-DOTA-EB-TATE and 0.174 ± 0.072 mSv/MBq for 177Lu-DOTATATE. Significant dose delivery increases to the kidneys and bone marrow were also observed in patients receiving 177Lu-DOTA-EB-TATE compared with those receiving 177Lu-DOTATATE (3.2 and 18.2-fold, respectively). Conclusion: By introducing an albumin-binding moiety, 177Lu-DOTA-EB-TATE showed remarkably higher uptake and retention in NETs as well as significantly increased accumulation in the kidneys and red marrow. It has great potential to be used in peptide receptor radionuclide therapy for NETs with lower dose and less frequency of administration.

Project description:PurposeGastroenteropancreatic -neuroendocrine tumours (GEP-NETs) are commonly treated with surgical resection or long-term therapies for tumour growth control. Lutetium [177Lu]-DOTA-TATE was approved for the treatment of GEP-NETs after the phase III NETTER 1trial demonstrated improved progression free survival, objective response rates and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) compared to high-dose somatostatin analogues. No real-world data exist on prescribing habits and clinically significant endpoints for [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE treatment in Italy. REAL-LU is a multicentre, long-term observational study in patients with unresectable/metastatic GEP-NETs progressing on standard therapies in Italian clinical practice. A pre-specified interim analysis was performed at the end of the enrolment period, data from which are described herein.MethodsOverall duration of REAL-LU will be approximately 48 months, with 12- and 36-month recruitment and follow-up periods, respectively. The primary objective is to evaluate [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE effectiveness in terms of progression-free survival. Secondary objectives include safety, impact on HRQoL, and identification of prognostic factors. This pre-specified interim analysis describes patient profiles, at the end of enrollment, of those prescribed [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE for GEP-NETs in Italy.ResultsAmong 161 evaluable patients, mean age was 64.7 ± 10.3 years at study entry, 83.8% presented with no clinical signs of disease at physical examination, and most had minor disease symptoms. All patients had metastatic disease, most commonly in the liver (83.9%) with a median of two metastatic sites. In 90.7% of patients, the disease was stage IV, and 68.3% had ≥ 1 target lesion. [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE was prescribed mainly as second-line therapy (61.6%) and following surgery (58.4%). HRQoL assessments revealed high levels of functioning and low levels of symptoms at baseline; 50.0% of patients were symptom-free at study entry.ConclusionThe characteristics of patients who received [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE in Italy are similar to those of the GEP-NET population of NETTER 1 with trial but with a higher proportion of patients with a grade 2 (71%). With regard to the tumor grade profile, our study cohort appears to be closer to that of NETTER-2 study population which included patients with G2 or G3 advanced GEP-NETs (i.e. Ki-67 ≥ 10% and ≤ 55%). Further analysis of effectiveness and safety can be anticipated as REAL-LU data mature.Study registrationClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04727723; Study Registration Date: 25 January, 2021; https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04727723?cond=NCT04727723&rank=1.

Project description:AimTo evaluate the cost-effectiveness of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE versus relevant comparators for the treatment of neuroendocrine tumours located in the gastrointestinal tract (GI-NETs) and the pancreas (P-NETs).Materials and methodsA three-state partitioned survival model was developed to perform a cost-utility analysis of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE versus standard of care (high dose Octreotide LAR), everolimus and sunitinib. Effectiveness data for SoC, everolimus and sunitinib were obtained from published Kaplan-Meier survival curves. Given a lack of head-to-head effectiveness data, matching adjusted indirect comparisons (MAICs) were performed to population-adjust [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE survival data based on prognostic factors and derive estimates of relative effectiveness. Health state utilities were estimated from real-world evidence. Drug acquisition costs were taken from nationally published sources (BNF, NICE), and administration costs were based on treatment protocols in [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE studies, combined with nationally published unit costs (PSSRU, DoH reference costs). Incidence of adverse events were estimated using published sources. A discount rate of 3.5% was applied to both utilities and costs, and deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were performed. Costs were included from an NHS perspective and presented in 2017/18 GBP (and PPP Euros for base case).ResultsIn GI-NETs, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE compared to SoC and everolimus was £26,528 (€27,672) and £24,145 (€25,186) per QALY, respectively. In P-NETs, the ICER of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE compared to SoC was £22,146 (€23,101) or £28,038 (€29,251) dependent on matched population, and £21,827 (€22,766) and £15,768 (€16,445) compared to everolimus and sunitinib, respectively.ConclusionsAt a willingness to pay threshold of £30,000, [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE is likely to be a cost-effective treatment option for GI-NET and P-NET patients versus relevant treatment comparators (NHS perspective).

Project description:BackgroundPeptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) with [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE has shown efficacy in patients with metastatic neuroendocrine tumours (NETs). Personalised dosimetry is crucial to optimise treatment outcomes and minimise adverse events. In this study, we investigated the correlation between the tumour-absorbed dose (TAD) estimated from [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE SPECT/CT and the therapeutic response.MethodA retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with advanced well-differentiated NETs grades 1-3 who underwent PRRT and exhibited greater uptake than liver on pre-therapeutic [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TOC PET/CT. Target lesions were selected based on the RECIST 1.1 and PERCIST 1.0 criteria using [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE SPECT/CT and pre-therapeutic contrast-enhanced CT scans. For anatomical image analysis, the sum of the longest diameter (SLD) of the target lesions was measured using the RECIST 1.1 criteria for patient-based analysis and the longest diameter (LD) of the target lesion using the RECIST-L criteria for lesion-based analysis. Standardised uptake values (SUVs) were measured on SPECT/CT images, and TADs were calculated based on the SUVs. Dosimetry was performed using a single SPECT/CT imaging time point at day 4-5 post-therapy. Statistical analyses were conducted to investigate correlations and determine the target lesion responses.ResultsTwenty patients with primary tumour sites and hepatic metastases were included. Fifty-five target lesions, predominantly located in the pancreas and liver, were analysed. The cumulative TAD (lesion-based analysis: r = 0.299-0.301, p = 0.025-0.027), but not the cycle 1 SUV (lesion-based analysis: r = 0.198-0.206, p = 0.131-0.147) or cycle 1 TAD (lesion-based analysis: r = 0.209-0.217, p = 0.112-0.126), exhibited a significant correlation with the change in LD of the target lesion. Binary logistic regression analysis identified the significance of the cumulative TAD in predicting disease control according to the RECIST-L criteria (odds ratio = 1.031-1.051, p = 0.024-0.026).ConclusionsThe cumulative TAD estimated from [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE SPECT/CT revealed a significant correlation with change in LD, which was significantly higher for the cumulative TAD than for the cycle 1 SUV or TAD. A higher cumulative TAD was associated with disease control in the target lesion. However, considering the limitations inherent to a confined sample size, careful interpretation of these findings is required. Estimation of the cumulative TAD of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE therapy could guide the platform towards personalised therapy.
