Tests treatment safety and results for Carcinoid Syndrome
Official title Carcinoid Syndrome Efficacy Study Featuring an Oral Daily Paltusotine Regimen
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07087054
What this study is testing
What is Paltusotine?
Paltusotine is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for carcinoid syndrome.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- A Phase 3, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of paltusotine treatment vs placebo as well as the long-term safety of paltusotine in adults with carcinoid syndrome due to well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors. The purpose of this study is to continue the evaluation of the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of paltusotine in participants with carcinoid syndrome.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
