Filter by:By improved kidney dosimetry including biological effective dose and taking into account potential risk factors (especially for kidney toxicity), it might be possible to give an optimal and personalized treatment with 177Lu-DOTA-TATE to the patient with metastatic neuroendocrine tumor.
Imaging with CT (Computed Tomography) or MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is normally used to see how tumors respond to treatment. If tumors shrink after therapy, doctors continue with the same treatment. On the other hand, growing tumors in a patient can bring about a change in therapy. Unfortunately, it often takes three to six months, or even longer before the investigators see tumors shrink or grow on scans. Doctors are looking for new imaging tools that can look at how tumors respond early on during treatment. This study will help us decide if such an MRI technology called DWI (Diffusion Weighted Imaging) can be used as a helpful imaging tool.
The primary objective of this study is to analyse the concentration dopamine and serotonin in thrombocytes of patients with renal cell carcinoma and neuro-endocrine tumours compared to the concentrations of these catecholamines in healthy volunteers. The concentration dopamine and serotonin in thrombocytes with and without medication will also be evaluated.
The objective is to clarify Roux-en-Y anastomosis of the pancreatic stump decreases pancreatic fistula following distal pancreatectomy, compared with stapling closure of the pancreatic stump.
This study will estimate the treatment effect of everolimus in combination with pasireotide LAR relative to everolimus alone on progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with advanced progressive PNET
This study designed to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) for patients with advanced Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs) and to characterize the safety, tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of pasireotide LAR administered i.m. once every 28 days.
This is a pilot study for evaluation of 89Zr-bevacizumab PET imaging as predictive biomarker during treatment with everolimus in patients with neuroendocrine tumors. Patients with progressive disease during the last year will receive treatment with everolimus 10 mg/day orally and 89Zr-bevacizumab PET imaging will be performed before start of treatment and after 2 and 12 weeks of treatment in the first three patients. If the scan after 2 weeks of treatment is already informative further patients will not undergo a scan at 12 weeks. A scan is considered already informative if both scans show at least 30% decrease in uptake in case of response, or at least 30% increase in uptake in case of disease progression. Four days before the scan patients will be injected intravenously 37 MBq, protein dose 5 mg 89Zr-bevacizumab. At day 1, day 15 and day 99, PET images will be made for visualization and quantification of VEGF in the tumor lesions and blood will be drawn for determination of angiogenesis and mTOR pathway related biomarkers.
The present study is designed to collect safety/tolerability data and explore the efficacy of RAD001 in advanced pulmonary neuroendocrine tumor in Chinese patients.
This is a multi-centric, open-label study evaluating the efficacy and safety of RAD001 in patients with advanced (stage IV) Lung Cancer (Large Cell) with neuroendocrine differentiation treated with a combination of RAD001 with paclitaxel and carboplatin.
This is a prospective pilot study designed to document safety and efficacy of liver-directed therapy for colorectal, neuroendocrine, cholangiocarcinoma, melanoma, and breast cancer metastases to the liver using Yttrium-90 glass microspheres (TheraSphere).
