Purpose To assess the impact of baseline liver tumour burden, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) elevation, and target lesion size on treatment outcomes with 177 Lu-Dotatate. Methods In the phase 3 NETTER-1 trial, patients with advanced, progressive midgut neuroendocrine tumours (NET) were randomised to 177Lu-Dotatate (every 8 weeks, four cycles) plus octreotide long-acting release (LAR) or to octreotide LAR 60 mg. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Analyses of PFS by baseline factors, including liver tumour burden, ALP elevation, and target lesion size, were performed using Kaplan-Meier estimates; hazard ratios (HRs) with corresponding 95% CIs were estimated using Cox regression. Results Significantly prolonged median PFS occurred with 177 Lu-Dotatate versus octreotide LAR 60 mg in patients with low (< 25%), moderate (25-50%), and high (> 50%) liver tumour burden (HR 0.187, 0.216, 0.145), and normal or elevated ALP (HR 0.153, 0.177), and in the presence or absence of a large target lesion (diameter > 30 mm; HR, 0.213, 0.063). Within the 177 Lu-Dotatate arm, no significant difference in PFS was observed amongst patients with low/moderate/high liver tumour burden (P = 0.7225) or with normal/elevated baseline ALP (P = 0.3532), but absence of a large target lesion was associated with improved PFS (P = 0.0222). Grade 3 and 4 liver function abnormalities were rare and did not appear to be associated with high baseline liver tumour burden. Conclusions 177 Lu-Dotatate demonstrated significant prolongation in PFS versus high-dose octreotide LAR in patients with advanced, progressive midgut NET, regardless of baseline liver tumour burden, elevated ALP, or the presence of a large target lesion.

Purpose NETTER-R aimed to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability of 177Lu-DOTATATE in patients with progressive, advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (panNETs) using retrospective real-world data from multiple sites. Methods This international study retrospectively included patients with panNETs treated with 177Lu-DOTATATE. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1). Secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), safety and tumour response. Results In total, 110 patients with panNETs were studied; 65.5% received a cumulative dose of 177Lu-DOTATATE 29.6 GBq ± 10% (median: 7.4 GBq). In 62 patients with available RECIST v1.1 tumour response, the median PFS was 24.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 17.5–34.5), and the objective response rate was 40.3% (95% CI: 28.1–53.6); all responses were partial. With a median follow up of 24.5 months (range: 2.0–123.4 months) after the first cycle of 177Lu-DOTATATE, the median OS in the full analysis set (n = 110) was 41.4 months (95% CI: 28.6–50.2). PFS (hazard ratio [HR]: 3.672; p = 0.0009) and OS (HR: 3.360; p < 0.0001) were longer in patients who received no chemotherapy prior to 177Lu-DOTATATE than those who did. No treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) led to treatment discontinuation. Grade 3 anaemia, lymphopenia and thrombocytopenia occurred in 0.9%, 5.4% and 0.9% of patients, respectively. No acute leukaemia or myelodysplastic syndrome was reported. Six patients (5.5%) had renal TEAEs. All renal grade ≥ 3 events were transient and did not lead to treatment modification. Conclusions These results reinforce the role of 177Lu-DOTATATE for the treatment of patients with advanced, somatostatin receptor-positive panNETs.
The purpose of this analysis was to report the safety evaluation of 177 Lu-PSMA-617 derived from the cohort of 64 patients exposed to 177 Lu-PSMA-617 in the RESIST-PC trial NCT03042312. Methods: RESIST-PC was a prospective multicenter phase 2 trial. Patients with progressive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer after $ 1 novel androgen-axis drug, either chemotherapy naïve or postchemotherapy, with sufficient bone marrow reserve, normal kidney function, sufficient PSMA expression by PSMA PET, and no PSMA-negative soft-tissue lesions were eligible. Patients were randomized (1:1) into 2 activity groups (6.0 or 7.4 GBq per cycle) and received up to 4 cycles every 8 wk. The primary safety endpoint was assessed by collecting and grading adverse events using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events. Patients were followed until disease progression, death, serious or intolerable adverse events, study termination by sponsor, patient withdrawal, lost to follow-up, or 24 mo after the first cycle. Results: The study was closed at enrollment of 71 of 200 planned patients because of sponsorship transfer. A total of 64 (90.1%) patients received at least 1 cycle of 177 Lu-PSMA-617: 28 (36%) in arm 1 (6.0 GBq) and 41 (64%) in arm 2 (7.4 GBq). There were 10 (43.5%), 19 (46.5%), and 29 (45.3%) patients who completed 4 cycles of 177 Lu-PSMA-617 in the 6.0-GBq arm, 7.4-GBq arm, and overall, respectively. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) of any grade in the 6.0-GBq arm, the 7.4-GBq arm and overall, were dry mouth (47.8%; 63.4%; 57.8%, respectively), fatigue (56.5%; 51.2%; 53.1%, respectively), nausea (52.2%; 43.9%; 46.9%, respectively), and diarrhea (13.0%; 31.7%; 25.0%, respectively). Frequencies of all other TEAEs were comparable among the 2 groups (within 10% difference). Serious possibly drug-related TEAEs were reported for 5 (7.8%) patients overall (none were considered as probably or definitely related to treatment): 1 subdural hematoma grade 4, 1 anemia grade 3, 1 thrombocytopenia grade 4, 1 gastrointestinal hemorrhage grade 3, and 1 acute kidney injury grade 3. There were no clinically significant changes in vital signs in electrocardiograms in the 2 treatment groups. No trend to creatinine increase or increasing frequency of shifts from normal to abnormal over time for any hematologic parameter was noted. Conclusion: 177 Lu-PSMA-617 was safe and well-tolerated at 6.0 and 7.4 GBq per cycle given at 8-wk intervals with side effects easily managed with standard medical support. With established safety, further clinical trials applying individualized dosimetry and testing different 177 Lu-PSMA-617 administration schemes (activity levels, time intervals) are needed to optimize tumor dose delivery and treatment efficacy.
Synovitis-acne-pustulosis-hyperostosis-osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome is an acronym for synovitis, pustulosis, acne, hyperostosis, and osteitis, and clinically manifests as dermatological and musculoskeletal damage. Two major manifestations that cooccur in a single patient are rare. Methods/Results: This literature describes a 44-year-old male affected by SAPHO syndrome, whose first manifestation was palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP). Symptomatic treatments such as anti-inflammatory and analgesics did not work well for him. Adalimumab provided noteworthy improvement in the neck and thoracic back pain improvement after two weeks. The palmoplantar pustules were alleviated after four weeks. Conclusion:The literature on SAPHO syndrome therapy is increasing. Thus, adalimumab is a novel therapeutic agent. This report demonstrates the efficiency of adalimumab in SAPHO syndrome.
