Sponsor: University Hospital, Basel, Switzerland

Summary

The goal of this phase 0 proof-of concept study is to measure the therapeutic index (tumour to dose-limiting-organ dose ratios) of 161Tb-DOTA-LM3 in comparison to the current standard 177Lu-DOTATOC in the same gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumour (GEP-NET) patients in a randomized, cross-over design, in all patients. Population to be studied are patients with diagnosed and metastasized secreting and non-secreting GEP-NEN (grade 1 and 2). The number of participants will be limited to 4 - 8 patients (phase 0a) and 4 - 8 patients (phase 0b). All patients will get the same treatment in a balanced cross-over order. The study will be divided into a phase 0a and phase 0b. Beforehand the selected patients will be randomised into two groups. In phase 0a one test injection with 161Tb-DOTA-LM3 and 177Lu-DOTATOC will administered in both randomised groups in a different order followed by \~ 3 cycles PRRT with 177Lu-DOTATOC in both groups. In phase 0b two test injections with 161Tb-DOTA-LM3 (with different peptide amounts) will administered in both randomised groups in a different order followed by \~2 cycles PRRT with 161Tb-DOTA-LM3 in both groups.

Interventions

DRUG

161Tb-DOTA-LM3

161Tb-DOTA-LM3 is a therapeutic medicinal product with three main components, namely (a) Terbium-161 (161Tb), a beta minus-, gamma- and Auger-/conversion electron-emitting radionuclide with a half-life of 6.96 days; (b) DOTA, a chelator that allows stable complexation of 161Tb; and (c) LM3, an antagonistic SST analogue which binds to SST2 receptors (SST2 receptor antagonist). All doses are presented as a sterile aqueous solution for i. v. infusion with renal protection.

DRUG

177Lu-DOTATOC

177Lu-DOTATOC = 177Lu-edotreotide is a therapeutic medicinal product with three main components (a) Lutetium-177 (177Lu), a beta minus and gamma--emitting radionuclide with a half-life of 6.65 days; (b) DOTA, a chemical chelator that allows stable complexation of 177Lu; and (c) TOC (= \[Tyr\]3-octreotide) an agonistic somatostatin analogue which binds to SST2 and much less to SST5 receptors (SST2 receptor agonist). All doses are presented as a sterile aqueous solution for i. v. infusion with renal protection.

Inclusion Criteria: * Written consent * Patients with diagnosed and metastasized secreting and non-secreting GEP-NEN (grade 1 and 2) * Absence of a curative surgical option * At least 2 measurable tumours based on RECIST 1.1 (minimal tumour diameter of 1 cm) * Documentation of a positive 68Ga-DOTATOC/-TATE positron emission tomography (PET)/CT (in vivo detection of SST2 on GEP-NENs) * Indication for PRRT * Patient of any gender and of age older than 18 * Female patients of child-bearing age (who are not surgically sterilized or are less than 2 years in their menopause) must use a medically accepted contraceptive and must agree to use it during and till 3 months after the treatment. As acceptable contraceptive count sexual abstinence or double contraceptive methods: hormonal contraceptive (oral, transdermal, implants or injections) in combination with barrier methods (spiral, condom, diaphragm) * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) ≤ 2 * Blood parameters: h) Leucocytes ≥ 3\*109/L i) Haemoglobin ≥ 90 g/L j) Thrombocytes ≥ 90\*109/L k) Estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥ 50 ml/min or Creatinine \< 150 μmol/l l) Albumin \> 25 g/L m) alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (AP): ≤ 5 times upper standard value n) Bilirubin ≤ 2 times upper standard value Exclusion Criteria: * Known intolerance against 177Lu, 161Tb, DOTA, TOC, LM3, SST analogues or against one of the components of 177Lu-DOTATOC or 161Tb-DOTA-LM3 * Bone/bone marrow metastases located in the lumbar spine if they affect the bone marrow dose estimation * Ongoing infection at the screening visit or a serious infection in the past 4 weeks * Administration of another investigational product in the last 60 days before Visit 1 Day 1 * Prior or planed administration of a therapeutic radio-pharmaceutical during 8 half-lives of the used radio-pharmaceutical's radionuclide, also during the ongoing study * Any extensive radiotherapy involving bone marrow over the last 3 months before inclusion to the study * Chemotherapy in the last 4 weeks before inclusion * Pregnant or breastfeeding female patients.

Any mental conditions which prevent the patient from understanding the type, extent and possible consequences of the study and/or an uncooperative attitude from the patient.
