Clinical Trial: Lutathera and ASTX727 in Neuroendocrine Tumours (LANTana)
What is the aim of this clinical trial?The aim of this single location trial in Imperial College London is to determine whether pre-treatment with ASTX727 results in re-expression of SSTR2 in patients with metastatic NETs, using 68Ga-DOTA-TATE to image epigenetic modification of the SSTR2 locus allowing subsequent treatment with Lutathera(i.e. PRRT). Patients entered into the study will receive ASTX727 orally up to 3 to 8 days prior to receiving Lutathera treatment. What is ASTX727?Oral Decitabine and Cedazuridine (ASTX727) is a DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitor currently being used in a trial to facilitate oral treatment of certain drugs for adults with intermediate and high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) including chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML).This is extremely technical, but from a study conducted by scientists at Imperial College London, they acknowledged that significant number of…
