Filter by:Background: Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are rare cancers in the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, lungs, adrenal glands, and other areas of the body. Many of these cancers have a high risk of relapse and a low chance of survival. Better treatments are needed. Objective: To test a new drug, ADCT-701, in people with NENs. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 and older with NENs. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. They will have imaging scans and tests of heart functioning. Their ability to perform normal daily activities will be tested. A biopsy may be needed: A sample of tissue will be removed from the tumor. ADCT-701 is given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. Participants will receive the drug treatment on the first day of 21-day treatment cycles. They will visit the clinic a total of 10 times during the first two cycles. After that, they will visit the clinic 2 times during each cycle. Imaging scans, blood draws, heart function tests, and other tests will be repeated during study visits. Each visit will last up to 8 hours. Participants may continue receiving treatment with the study drug for up to 2 years. After treatment ends, participants will have follow-up clinic visits 4 times in 4 months. They will have a physical exam, with heart and blood tests, at each visit. After that, they will have follow-up clinic visits every 9 weeks; these visits will include imaging scans. Follow-up visits will continue for up to 5 years after treatment began....
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with etoposide, doxorubicin, cisplatin and mitotane (EDP/M) prolongs survival as compared to streptozotocin and mitotane (Sz/M) in patients with advanced adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) whose disease is not amenable to complete surgical resection.
