Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Grade 3 neuroendocrine carcinoma (Ki67>20%) or high grade MiNEN with a grade 3 poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma
- Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5N, AST ≤ 2.5N, ALT≤ 2.5N or AST and ALT ≤ 5N in case of liver metastasis.
- Age ≥ 18 years
- Signed and dated informed consent, and willing and able to comply with protocol requirements.
- Women of childbearing potential, as well as men (who have sexual relations with women of childbearing potential) must agree to use an effective method of contraception throughout this study and during the 15 months following administration of the last dose of the study medicinal product
- Patient who is a beneficiary of the Social security system
You likely can't join if
- Grade 3 well differentiated neuroendocrine tumor according to WHO 2017 classification
- Treatment with St John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum)
- Pregnant women or breastfeeding mother
- Known or historical active infection with HIV, or known active infection untreated with hepatitis B or hepatitis C
- History of prior malignancy in the three yars before randomization, except for cured non-melanoma skin cancer and cured in situ cervical carcinoma.
