Abstract:
4122 Background: The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway is involved in the pathogenesis of neuroendocrine tumors (NET). Everolimus (RAD001), an oral mTOR inhibitor, has antitumor activity in patients (pts) with advanced NET. In this open-label, multicenter, phase II study (RAMSETE), the safety and efficacy of everolimus monotherapy was evaluated in pts with advanced nonsyndromic, nonpancreatic NET. Methods: Pts with advanced (unresectable or metastatic), progressive, nonsyndromic, nonpancreatic NET received everolimus (10 mg/day) as monotherapy. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (proportion of pts with best overall complete response [CR] or partial response [PR] per RECIST v1.0) by central radiologic review. A secondary endpoint included progression-free survival (PFS). Results: By database soft lock (December 1, 2011), 73 pts from 16 European clinics received everolimus (median duration of treatment: 193 days). Fifty-five (75%) pts discontinued; reasons included disease progression (n=23), adverse events (AEs [n=23]), withdrawal of consent (n=4), death (n=3), and protocol deviation (n=2). In the per protocol population (N=60), 32 (53%) pts received prior antineoplastic therapy. The best response by central review was stable disease in 55%. By local review, 3 (5%) pts had a PR, with SD in 39 (65%) pts. Median PFS by central review was 185 days (95% CI: 158-255). Median PFS by local investigator review was 285 days (95% CI: 231-not estimable). 69 (95%) pts reported treatment-related AEs of any grade, including rash (n=28; 38%), diarrhea (n=20; 27%), mucosal inflammation (n=18; 25%), and decreased appetite (n=17; 23%). Treatment-related grades 3 and 4 AEs and serious AEs were reported by 27 (37%) and 18 (25%) pts, respectively. Conclusions: In this open-label trial of everolimus in pts with advanced, nonsyndromic, extrapancreatic NET, a high rate of disease stabilization was achieved after prior tumor progression with favorable median PFS. This study further supports efficacy of everolimus in types of NET other than those studied in RADIANT-3 (pancreatic NET) and RADIANT-2 (NET associated with carcinoid syndrome).
