Study Summary

This trial will study how well lenvatinib and everolimus work in treating patients with unresectable carcinoid tumors.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with advanced, unresectable carcinoid tumors. Eligible participants must have well-differentiated tumors, may have MEN1 syndrome, and show disease progression over the last year. They should be in good physical condition (ECOG 0-1), not pregnant, able to swallow pills, without HIV or hepatitis B/C, and free from other cancers in the past 3 years.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests lenvatinib and everolimus' effectiveness on advanced carcinoid tumors that can't be surgically removed. These drugs aim to inhibit tumor growth by blocking enzymes necessary for cell proliferation.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of lenvatinib and everolimus include fatigue, diarrhea, high blood pressure, decreased appetite, weight loss, nausea/vomiting; some serious risks are heart damage or severe bleeding.
