REAL-LU: Italian Prospective Observational Study Assessing the Effectiveness and Outcomes Associated With Lutathera Treatment in GEP-NETs
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a multicentre long-term non-interventional study of adult subjects diagnosed with unresectable or metastatic, progressive, well differentiated (G1 and G2), somatostatin receptor positive GEP-NETs who have been prescribed Lutathera® in standard clinical practice.
| Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |
|---|---|---|
Detailed Description
Data on patients will be collected from the date when patient consent was obtained, during treatment with Lutathera® and for a follow-up period until end of study (EOS), defined as the time when the last enrolled patient has completed 36 months of assessments (unless early termination) after enrolment. Data will be collected in accordance with routine clinical visits.
The study duration will be 48 months in total: 12 months recruitment and 36 of follow-up from the last patient in.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Lutathera® Lutathera® will be administered according to the local label and according to the recommended treatment regimen in adults consisting of four equally divided doses of Lutathera® for a total of 29.6 GBq (800 mCi). |
Drug: Lutathera®
Treatment with Lutathera® will be independent from participation in this observational study and must not be initiated for the purpose of participating in this study. The decision to treat patients with Lutathera® will occur before patients are enrolled in the study.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Progression Free Survival (PFS) [Up to 48 months]
PFS, defined as the time, in months, from Lutathera® treatment initiation to the date of first objective tumour progression, determined according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) Criteria, Version 1.1, or death due to any cause, whichever comes first.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Objective Response Rate (ORR) [Up to 48 months]
ORR, defined as the proportion of treated patients who achieve a best overall response of partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) according to RECIST 1.1
- Duration of Response (DoR), for those patients who achieve a best response of PR or better [Up to 48 months]
DoR, defined as the time, in months, from the date when criteria for response are first met until the date of a progression event (according to the primary definition of PFS).
- Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) [Up to 48 months]
CBR, defined as the proportion of treated patients who achieve a best overall response of stable disease (SD), PR or CR according to RECIST 1.1.
- Duration of Clinical Benefit, for those patients who achieve a best response of SD or better [Up to 48 months]
Duration of clinical benefit, defined as the time, in months, from the date when criteria for clinical benefit are first met until the date of a progression event (according to the primary definition of PFS).
- Time to Progression (TTP) [Up to 48 months]
TTP, defined as the time, in months, from Lutathera® treatment initiation to the date of first objective tumour progression, assessed according to RECIST 1.1.
- Assess the impact of treatment on health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) by EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire [Up to 48 months]
EORTC QLQ-C30 will be filled in by the patient prior to knowing computed tomography (CT) scan/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) result. The EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire is designed for use with a wide range of cancer patient populations and is intended to be supplemented by tumour-specific questionnaire modules. The EORTC QLQ-C30 incorporates different multi-item scales, i.e. functional scales, symptom scales and a Global Health Status/QoL scale. All parameters are evaluated using single or multi-item questions which are consequently converted into a 100-point score.
- Assess the impact of treatment on health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) by EORTC QLQ-G.I.NET-21 questionnaire [Up to 48 months]
EORTC QLQG. I.NET-21 will be filled in by the patient prior to knowing computed tomography (CT) scan/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) result. EORTC QLQ-G.I.NET-21 questionnaire is a module specific for neuroendocrine tumours and comprises 21 questions assessing disease symptoms, side effects of treatment, body image, disease related worries, social functioning, communication and sexuality. Each subscale is based on the following items: endocrine scale (items 31-33); gastrointestinal scale (34-38); treatment scale (39, 40, and 46); social function scale (42, 44, and 49); disease related worries scale (41, 43, and 47); muscle/bone pain (48), sexual function (51), information/communication function (50), and body image (45). All parameters are evaluated using single or multi-item questions which are consequently converted into a 100-point score
- Time to Deterioration (TTD) in global health scale (TTD- global health scale) [Baseline, up to 48 months]
TTD, defined as the time, in months, from Lutathera® treatment initiation to the date of first deterioration of ≥10 points in the EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-G.I.NET21 global health scale score compared to the baseline score for the same domain.
- Time to Deterioration (TTD) in diarrhoea item (TTD- diarrhoea item) [Baseline, up to 48 months]
TTD, defined as the time, in months, from Lutathera® treatment initiation to the date of first deterioration of ≥10 points in the EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-G.I.NET21 diarrhoea item score compared to the baseline score for the same domain.
- Time to Deterioration (TTD) in fatigue item (TTD- fatigue item) [Baseline, up to 48 months]
TTD, defined as the time, in months, from Lutathera® treatment initiation to the date of first deterioration of ≥10 points in the EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-G.I.NET21 fatigue item score compared to the baseline score for the same domain.
- Time to Deterioration (TTD) in pain item (TTD- pain item) [Baseline, up to 48 months]
TTD, defined as the time, in months, from Lutathera® treatment initiation to the date of first deterioration of ≥10 points in the EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-G.I.NET21 pain item score compared to the baseline score for the same domain.
