  • Description: <jats:p> 604 </jats:p><jats:p> Background: Single agent 177Lu-octreotate peptide receptor radionuclide therapy is now a standard of care for progressive mNETS. High activity was seen with LuTate and concurrent CAPTEM chemotherapy in a single arm Phase I/II trial. This study was undertaken to determine the relative activity of adding CAPTEM to LuTate PRRT in patients with mNETs. Methods: Non-comparative randomised open label phase II trial of PRRT +/- CAPTEM in patients with mNETs, with 2:1 randomisation: PRRT /CAPTEM (experimental arm) vs. PRRT (control). PRRT /CAPTEM: 7.8GBq LuTate day(D) 10, 8 weekly (wkly) x 4, with b.i.d. oral CAP 750mg/m<jats:sup>2</jats:sup> D1-14 &amp; TEM 75mg/m<jats:sup>2</jats:sup> D10-14, 8 wkly x 4, vs. PRRT 8 wkly x 4. Primary endpoint: progression free survival (PFS) at 15 months assuming 15 month PFS of 66.4% in the control arm, aiming for PFS rate &gt; 80%; secondary endpoints: objective tumour response rate (complete or partial response) (OTRR), clinical benefit rate (complete or partial response, stable disease) (CBR), toxicity, and QOL. Results: 47 patients enrolled (Dec 2015 - Feb 2018): 33 PRRT/CAPTEM and 14 PRRT. Two patients withdrew prior to treatment. Patient characteristics were balanced except gender (female 58% vs. 14%). Two patients received 2 prior systemic regimens. After a median follow-up of 32 months, the 15 month PFS was 90% (95% CI: 73-97%) v 92% (95% CI: 57-99%); OTRR 25% vs 15%; and CBR 97% vs 92% for PRRT/CAPTEM v PRRT respectively. For treatment related adverse events 22/32 CAPTEM patients experienced one Grade 3 event (69%) vs 5/13 (38%, PRRT); 4/32 pts experienced one Grade 4 event (13%) v 1/13 (8%) respectively. Only one patient failed to complete therapy due to toxicity (PRRT/CAPTEM). Conclusions: This initial planned analysis demonstrates similarly high 15 month PFS for CAPTEM/PRRT relative to PRRT alone. OTRR is numerically higher but at the cost of greater toxicity. Longer follow up is required to determine if the activity of PRRT/CAPTEM is sufficient to warrant Phase III evaluation.
