Real-World Clinical and Patient-Reported Outcomes from the Longitudinal Telotristat Ethyl Treatment Registry of Patients with Neuroendocrine Tumors.


ABSTRACT:

Background

Telotristat ethyl (TE) is an oral tryptophan hydroxylase inhibitor approved for the treatment of carcinoid syndrome diarrhea (CSD) in combination with somatostatin analogs (SSAs).

Methods

This prospective, observational, single-arm study evaluated long-term patient-reported outcomes for adults initiating TE in US clinical practice from 2017 through January 2022. The primary objective was satisfaction with overall CS symptom control 6 months after initiating TE. Secondary objectives evaluated satisfaction with control of CSD, flushing, and CS symptoms, as well as work productivity/activity impairment, SSA use, and weight. All analyses were descriptive in nature.

Results

A total of 223 patients completed the baseline survey; 56% also completed the 6-month follow-up survey. Mean age was 61 years and 61% were women. After 6 months of TE treatment, the majority of patients (76%, n=95/125) reported being satisfied with control of their CS symptoms which was markedly improved from baseline (41%, n=91). Similarly, the majority of patients (78%, n=97/125) were satisfied with control of their CSD after 6 months of TE, markedly improved from baseline (36%).

Conclusion

This longitudinal observational study showed improvements in real-world clinical and humanistic outcomes for patients with CS and at least 6 months of TE treatment.
