COMPETE Trial Summary

This trial will compare the effectiveness of two different treatments for inoperable neuroendocrine tumors of the digestive system.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with certain types of neuroendocrine tumors in the digestive system or pancreas that can't be removed by surgery. Participants must have a confirmed diagnosis, measurable disease, positive somatostatin receptor status, and evidence of disease progression. They cannot have had certain prior treatments like mTor inhibitors or PRRT, nor can they be pregnant or unable to consent.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two treatments: Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) using a radioactive drug called 177Lu-Edotreotide versus Everolimus, a targeted molecular therapy. The goal is to see which treatment is more effective and safer for patients with advanced neuroendocrine tumors.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions to the radioactive drug such as nausea and fatigue; kidney damage; blood cell count changes leading to increased infection risk; liver problems; allergic reactions if sensitive to the medication's components.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Has 177Lu-edotreotide PRRT undergone FDA approval process?

"There is both pre-existing clinical data to support the efficacy of 177Lu-edotreotide PRRT and multiple rounds of safety testing, so it received a score of 3."

Answered by AI

Are there any more positions available for willing individuals in this experiment?

"At the moment, this trial is not recruiting patients. However, it is worth checking back in the future as the study was most recently updated on 6/7/2022. There are also other trials that might be of interest. For example, there are presently 168 clinical trials actively looking for participants with neuroendocrine tumors and 129 studies for 177Lu-edotreotide PRRT admitting participants."

Answered by AI

Is 177Lu-edotreotide PRRT a new form of treatment?

"The first recorded study of 177Lu-edotreotide PRRT took place in 2008 at Sheba Medical Center. Since then, there have been a total of 411 completed trials. There are 129 trials currently recruiting patients, with a significant concentration in the Boston area of Massachusetts."

Answered by AI

Why is 177Lu-edotreotide PRRT commonly prescribed?

"177Lu-edotreotide can be used as part of PRRT to treat patients with kidney transplants, waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, and lung cancer who have rejected other forms of treatment."
