Ended Therapeutic exploratory (Phase II) Advanced neuroendocrine neoplasias G3 (NEN G3) (excluding SCLC and Merkel cell carcinomas)

Cabozantinib in combination with Avelumab in patients refractory to standard chemotherapy with advanced neuroendocrine neoplasias G3 (NEN G3)

EU CTIS ID: 2024-513518-37-00

What this study is testing

Primary study objective is to assess the clinical activity of the combination therapy of Cabozantinib with Avelumab in comparison to monotherapy with avelumab in the AveNEC trial (EudraCT No.: 2016-004373-40) in patients with progressive Neuroendocrine Neoplasias G3 (NEN G3) after standard chemotherapy. The primary end point is the disease control rate (DCR) according to iRECIST after 16 weeks from start of treatment until documented disease progression (PD). The tumor assessment is done every 8 weeks for the first 6 month and every 12 weeks thereafter.
