An Open-label, Multi-center, Expanded Access Study of Everolimus in Participants With Advanced Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs) (Core Study) and an Extension Study to the Open-label, Multi-center, Expanded Access Study of Everolimus in Patients With Advanced NETs (E1)

Neuroendocrine Tumors Clinical Trial

Official title: An Open-label, Multi-center, Expanded Access Study of Everolimus in Participants With Advanced Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs) (Core Study) and an Extension Study to the Open-label, Multi-center, Expanded Access Study of Everolimus in Patients With Advanced NETs (E1)

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This record combines the results of CRAD001K24133 and CRAD001K24133E1. The purpose of the CRAD001K24133 study was to evaluate the safety profile of everolimus in patients with advanced neuroendocrine tumors of pancreatic origin (pNETs) and to provide access of everolimus to this patient population. Everolimus was taken by participants until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, discontinuation from the trial for any other reason, or when it became commercially available for this indication, or until May 30, 2012, whichever came first. Prior to amendment 1, the study enrolled participants with NET of the lung (L-NETs) and gastrointestinal (GI) (GI-NETs) origin. The core study was stopped (per protocol) because everolimus was approved for pNETs. All ongoing patients with pNETs were switched to commercially available everolimus. For GI and lung NETs, everolimus was not approved at the time the core study was stopped. Therefore, patients with GI or lung NETs were not able to switch to commercial drug. To provide study medication access to these patients beyond 30 May 2012, the open label extension study, CRAD001K24133E1, was conducted. In the extension study, RAD001K24133E1, participants with GI or lung NETs who had not progressed during therapy with everolimus in the core study and who had not suffered from intolerable toxicity, were enrolled and treated with everolimus in order to provide data on long-term safety and efficacy. Patients were treated until it became commercially available in the respective indication or until documented tumor progression, unacceptable toxicity, any other reason or until study end on 31 May 2017, whichever came first.
