Vanderbilt University Medical Center researchers have discovered why most colorectal tumors escape detection and destruction by the body's immune system.
This study is a Phase III, Randomized, Controlled, Global Multicenter Study to Evaluate the
Efficacy and Safety of Oral Tinengotinib versus Physician's Choice in Subjects with
Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor (FGFR)-altered, Chemotherapy- and FGFR
Inhibitor-Refractory/Relapsed Cholangiocarcinoma
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability and to determine
the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of E7386 in combination with other anticancer drug(s).
This phase IV trial evaluates how well giving standard of care (SOC) peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) after SOC surgical removal of as much tumor as possible (debulking surgery) works in treating patients with grade 1 or 2, somatostatin receptor (SSTR) positive, gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) that have spread from where they first started (primary site) to the liver (hepatic metastasis). Lutetium Lu 177 dotatate is a radioactive drug that uses targeted radiation to kill tumor cells. Lutetium Lu 177 dotatate includes a radioactive form (an isotope) of the element called lutetium. This radioactive isotope (Lu-177) is attached to a molecule called dotatate. On the surface of GEP-NET tumor cells, a receptor called a somatostatin receptor binds to dotatate. When this binding occurs, the lutetium Lu 177 dotatate drug then enters somatostatin receptor-positive tumor cells, and radiation emitted by Lu-177 helps kill the cells. Giving lutetium Lu 177 dotatate after surgical debulking may better treat patients with grade 1/2 GEP-NETs.
