Clinical Trial Summary

Novel treatments are urgently needed for meningiomas progressing after local therapies (surgery, radiotherapy). So far, no effective systemic therapies are known in this situation. The LUMEN-1 trial will investigate in a prospective randomized trial the efficacy of the precision medicine "theranostic" concept of combining diagnostic patient selection using PET-based molecular imaging and target-specific therapeutic intervention using a systemically administered radioligand. The rationale for the LUMEN-1 trial is based on the following: (a) high somatostatin receptor (SSTR) expression in meningiomas, (b) wide-spread availability of clinically established SSTR-PET imaging, (c) proven efficacy of SSTR-targeting radioligand therapy using [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE in another tumor type (neuroendocrine tumors), and (d) promising experiences with [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE therapy in compassionate use applications and retrospective case series and interim results from one ongoing uncontrolled prospective trial in meningiomas. LUMEN-1 is the first randomized clinical trial to investigate [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE therapy in refractory meningioma and may open new avenues for treatment and research in this area.
