18F-DOPA and 11C-5-HTP are used to evaluate neuroendocrine metabolism . 18-fluoro-deoxy-glucose (FDG) PET is usually a poor indication for NETs since these neoplasms tend to be metabolic inactive, and thus FDG-PET is only used for high grade more aggressive NETs . Only a combination of several
This prospective, phase 2 study is to assess how Enterade® will affect patient-reported quality of life and intestinal absorption in patients with Carcinoid Syndrome and Neuroendocrine Tumors. The hypothesis is that Enterade® when combined with standard supportive care will improve patient-reported
This is a single center, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effect on tumor growth and symptomology (clinical and biomarkers) following a single intralesional injection of PV-10 in subjects with neuroendocrine tumors metastatic to the liver. Subjects will be divided into two
In midgut NETs serotonin production is most prominent. Patients with NETs producing excessive serotonin can develop carcinoid syndrome. Serotonin is a product of the 'tryptophan pathway'. Serotonin is metabolized in 5-hydroxyindolacetic acid (5-HIAA) and then excreted with urine. 5-HIAA in 24-hour
Rationale: Patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NET) have a rare, slowly progressing disease. Therefore they undergo many treatments such as surgery followed by long-lasting systemic treatments with somatostatin analogues. These procedures can each result in increased diarrhea and loss of critical
The study population will consist of patients with advanced (metastatic or unresectable) neuroendocrine tumors with suboptimally controlled carcinoid syndrome. While the majority of patients will have primary tumors of the ileocecum (midgut), any serotonin-producing neuroendocrine tumors will be
(177)Lutetium-DOTA-Octreotate Therapy in Somatostatin Receptor-Expressing Neuroendocrine Neoplasms
First Annual Report on protocol IND# 78,256 at RITA Foundation in collaboration with Excel diagnostics and Nuclear Oncology center and Baylor College of Medicine
Protocol number 78,256 calls for
For carcinoid, despite the many cytotoxic chemotherapy trials that have been conducted, no regimen has demonstrated a response rate of more than 20% using the criterion of a 50% reduction of bidimensionally measurable disease. In the more recently reported ECOG phase III study of chemotherapy in
This is an open-label, phase II study evaluating the safety and efficacy of PTK787/ZK222584 administered daily in subjects with neuroendocrine tumors that are experiencing progressive disease and/or whose tumor-related syndrome symptoms (flushing and diarrhea) are considered inadequately controlled
For carcinoid, despite the many cytotoxic chemotherapy trials that have been conducted, no regimen has demonstrated a response rate of more than 20% using the criterion of a 50% reduction of bidimensionally measurable disease. In the more recently reported ECOG phase III study of chemotherapy in
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the 4-month progression-free and overall survival of patients with progressive low-grade neuroendocrine tumors treated with vatalanib and octreotide.
- Determine the response rate in patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine the effect of this regimen on tumor markers
