Australian experience of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy in lung neuroendocrine tumours.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is an approved treatment modality for gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEP NETs), Although Phase III randomised clinical trial data is not available for NETs of other site of origin, in practice, PRRT is used more widely in clinical practice, based on its mechanism of targeting the somatostatin receptor. Use of PRRT for lung (bronchial) NET, specifically typical and atypical carcinoid (TC, AC), has been reported only in small retrospective case series. This multicentre study adds to the evidence regarding utility of PRRT for lung NETs. MATERIALS AND METHODS:A retrospective chart review of patients with TC and AC who received 177Lu-dotatate PRRT between January 2002 and June 2019 in six hospitals across Australia was undertaken. Data regarding demographics, efficacy and toxicity was evaluated at each site by the treating clinician. RESULTS:Forty-eight patients (32 AC, 15 TC, 1 unclassified) received a median of four 177Lu-dotatate treatments. There was a median of one prior line of systemic treatment (range: 0-3). The response rate to 177Lu-dotatate was 33%, with a median overall survival of 49 months (range of 3-91), at a median follow up of 33 months. This compares favourably with GEP NET. Overall toxicity was recorded as modest. CONCLUSIONS:177Lu-dotatate PRRT in patients with lung NETs is used in real world practice, where it appears well-tolerated with some efficacy. Further evidence could be obtained through a global prospective clinical or registry trial.

Project description:PURPOSE:Therapy with [177Lu-DOTA,Tyr3]octreotate is effective in patients with grade I/II metastasized and/or inoperable bronchial neuroendocrine tumour (NET) or gastroenteropancreatic NET (GEP-NET). In this study, we investigated the efficacy and safety of salvage treatment with [177Lu-DOTA,Tyr3]octreotate. METHODS:Patients with progressive bronchial NET or GEP-NET were selected for re-(re)treatment if they had benefited from initial peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (I-PRRT) with a minimal progression-free survival (PFS) of 18 months. Patients received an additional cumulative dose of 14.8 GBq of [177Lu-DOTA,Tyr3]octreotate over two cycles per retreatment with PRRT (R-PRRT) or re-retreatment with PRRT (RR-PRRT). RESULTS:The safety and efficacy analyses included 181 patients and 168 patients, respectively, with bronchial NET or GEP-NET. Overall median follow-up was 88.6 months (95% CI 79.0-98.2). Median cumulative doses were 44.7 GBq (range 26.3-46.4 GBq) during R-PRRT (168 patients) and 59.7 GBq (range 55.2-?60.5 GBq) during RR-PRRT (13 patients). Objective response and stable disease, as best response, were observed in 26 patients (15.5%) and 100 patients (59.5%) following R-PRRT, and in 5 patients (38.5%) and 7 patients (53.8%) following RR-PRRT, respectively. Median PFS was 14.6 months (95% CI 12.4-16.9) following R-PRRT and 14.2 months (95% CI 9.8-18.5) following RR-PRRT. Combined overall survival (OS) after I-PRRT plus R-PRRT and RR-PRRT was 80.8 months (95% CI 66.0-95.6). Grade III/IV bone marrow toxicity occurred in 6.6% and 7.7% of patients after R-PRRT and RR-PRRT, respectively. Salvage therapy resulted in a significantly longer OS in patients with bronchial NET, GEP-NET and midgut NET than in a nonrandomized control group. The total incidence of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) was 2.2%. No PRRT-related grade III/IV nephrotoxicity was observed. CONCLUSION:A cumulative dose of up to 60.5 GBq salvage PRRT with [177Lu-DOTA,Tyr3]octreotate is safe and effective in patients with progressive disease (relapse-PD) following I-PRRT with [177Lu-DOTA,Tyr3]octreotate. Safety appears similar to that of I-PRRT as no higher incidence of AML or MDS was observed. No grade III/IV renal toxicity occurred after retreatment.

Project description:PurposePRELUDE aimed to assess use and effectiveness/safety of lanreotide autogel/depot (LAN) combined with 177Lu-DOTATOC or 177Lu-DOTATATE (LAN-peptide receptor radionuclide therapy [PRRT]) in patients with progressive neuroendocrine tumours (NETs).MethodsInternational, non-interventional, retrospective, non-comparative analysis of medical records from patients with progressive metastatic or locally advanced grade 1 or 2 gastroenteropancreatic (GEP)- or lung-NETs. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) at end of last LAN-PRRT cycle. Secondary endpoints included PFS at last available follow-up, best overall response, objective response rate (ORR), presence and severity of diarrhoea and flushing, and safety. Post-hoc analyses were conducted to determine pre-treatment tumour growth rate (TGR) cutoffs that best predicted the ORR during treatment.ResultsForty patients were enrolled (GEP-NETs, n = 39; lung-NETs, n = 1). PFS rates were 91.7% at end of last LAN-PRRT cycle and 95.0% at last available follow-up. In the full analysis set, best overall response among patients with GEP-NETs (n = 23) was stable disease (n = 14, 60.9%), partial response (n = 8, 34.8%) and progressive disease (n = 1, 4.3%). The ORR was 27.3% at end of last LAN-PRRT cycle and 36.8% at last available follow-up. Optimal baseline TGR cutoffs for predicting ORR at these time points were 1.18% and 0.33%, respectively. At baseline, 81.0% of patients had diarrhoea or flushing; both remained stable or improved in most cases. No increased adverse drug reactions were reported.ConclusionDespite the major recruitment shortfall for the PRELUDE study, effectiveness data were encouraging in this selected population, highlighting the potential usefulness and feasibility of LAN combined with and after PRRT in patients with GEP-NETs. The study also identified challenges associated with evaluating clinical practice in a rare-disease setting and highlighted the need for standardisation of PRRT procedures.Trial registrationTrial number: NCT02788578; URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02788578.
