Recruiting NA Neuroendocrine Tumor of Pancreas

New treatment option for Neuroendocrine Tumor of Pancreas

Official title Precision Radiotherapy Using MR-linac for Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours in MEN1 Patients

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05037461

What this study is testing

What it's testing
Patients with the Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome are genetically predisposed for developping multiple pancreatic neuro-endocrine tumours (pNET). The management of small (pNET) in both MEN1 and sporadic cases, pose a major clinical challenge.

A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.

Who can take part

Ages 18 and older

You may be able to join if

  • All patients meeting the following criteria will be assessed for in the tumour board:
  • lesions measuring between 2cm and 3cm.
  • pNET lesions with a size between 1.0 and 2.0 cm and moderate growth of the lesion (2-4 mm/ year) on sequential follow-up scans.
  • pNET lesions with a size between 1.0 and 2.0 cm and minimal growth of the lesion (1 mm/ year) reconfirmed on 3 or more sequential follow-up scans.
  • Patients with in situ remaining 1.0 - 2.0 cm lesions after previous resection of a larger lesion. All patients with such lesion and an indication for...

  • Suspected malignant pNET as per the tumour board assessment, including the criteria:
  • pNET lesions of more than 3 cm in size
  • rapid growth of pNET lesions with more than 4mm per year
  • Symptomatic pNET because of hormone production, with the exception of gastrinomas which are located in the submucosa of the duodenum
