SCIROCCO Trial

SANDOSTATIN (OCTREOTIDE LAR) MAY LEAD TO CLINICAL IMPROVEMENT THROUGH RECEPTOR OCCUPATION OPTIMISATION

A prospective interventional trial of patients with neuro-endocrine tumors with carcinoid syndrome receiving octreotide LAR

Trial Status Closed
Phase Phase IV
Type of cancer Neuro-endocrine tumors with carcinoid syndrome
Study design

Prospective, interventional, multicentric

Objectives Primary
  • To observe the change from baseline in the incidence of diarrhea and flushing in correlation to the serum octreotide level, independently of the dose variations of octreotide LAR.
Secondary
  • To describe the number of symptoms in correlation to the serum octreotide level, defined by a blood level test of octreotide.
  • To describe the rate of diarrhea and flushing via a patient diary
  • To describe the impact of increased dose of octreotide LAR on the symptoms: bowel movements and flushing (via patient diary)
  • To describe the effect of Octreotide LAR on Quality of Life, based on the change from baseline in the OLO-GINET21 scores
  • To describe the effect of Octreotide LAR on tumor control according to RECIST 1.1 criteria
  • To describe the safety of octreotide (CTCAE grades)
  • To describe the correlation between the dose/frequency of octreotide LAR given and the serum octreotide level
