Clinical Trial Summary

In this study the investigators will evaluate whether combination low dose somatostatin receptor ligand (SRL) and weekly or daily pegvisomant will attain equivalent control of serum insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 levels at a lower cost, compared to combination high dose SRL and weekly pegvisomant. Lower doses of therapy will greatly reduce cost of acromegaly therapy.


Clinical Trial Description

Subjects will be stratified based on prior response to SRL therapy and then randomized to one of three treatment arms. The study will begin when the combination of octreotide long-acting release (LAR) or lanreotide and pegvisomant is first administered. Study visits will occur every 4 weeks from the start of the study. However, for subjects who cannot make every study visit due to distance, the study team will facilitate monthly blood draws at their local Quest laboratory facility. After the 24 weeks of combination therapy, subjects with a controlled IGF-1 will then start pegvisomant monotherapy at the same dose and schedule that they attained normalization in combination therapy. IGF-1 levels, liver function test, and blood glucose will be performed monthly. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) will be performed at the conclusion of the study. ;
