What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Disease Control Rate (DCR) After 6 Months

    All tumour assessments were performed using the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumours (RECIST) criteria (1.1). Computer Tomography (CT-scan) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) could be used for as method of tumour measurement and the same method of tumour measurement was used throughout the study for each subject. CT scans/MRI were performed at screening or baseline visit then at weeks 12, 24 and at early withdrawal or at anytime during the study in the case of any clinical or biological signs of tumour progression. The DCR was defined as the proportion of subjects with a response of CR, PR or SD after 6 months of combination treatment and was described in the ITT population along with its 95% Confidence Interval (CI) and was compared to 45% with an exact binomial proportion test. The Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) method was used to replace missing assessments at the end of the combination phase.

SecondaryThe Number of Subjects With a Symptomatic Response After 12 Months - Maintenance Phase

Symptomatic response was evaluated as absolute change from baseline in the number of episodes of the lead symptoms (i.e. diarrhoea and flushing) using the mean of the last 3 days before the visit, at each visit, as compared to baseline. Symptomatic responses were categorised as: Reduction, Increase or Stability of occurrences of diarrhoea / Reduction, Increase or Stability of occurrences of flushing. The number of subjects in each response category at week 48 (end of study) is presented. Analysis was only carried out on subjects in the ITT population with functioning NET.

SecondaryEuropean Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life (QoL) Core 30 Questionnaire (QLQ-C30): Mean Change From Baseline at 6 Months

Subjects were instructed to complete the QLQ-C30 questionnaire at baseline, weeks 12, 24 or at early withdrawal. The first 28 questions used a 4-point scale (1=not at all, 2=a little, 3=quite a bit, 4=very much) for evaluating 5 functional scales (physical, role, emotional, cognitive, social), 3 symptom scales (fatigue, nausea/vomiting, pain) \& 6 other single items. The last 2 questions represented subject's assessment of overall health \& quality of life, coded on a 7-point scale (1=very poor to 7=excellent). The mean change from baseline at week 24 (end of the combination phase) is presented for global health status (scoring of questions 29 \& 30) and 5 functional scales, 3 symptom scales and other single items (scoring of questions 1 to 28). Each individual subscore was transformed to range from 0 to 100. A higher score represents a higher level response. Thus, a better QoL/a better level of functioning/a worse level of symptoms.

Subjects were instructed to complete the QLQ-GI.NET21 questionnaire at baseline, weeks 12, 24 or at early withdrawal. It contained 21 questions that used a 4-point scale (1 = Not at all, 2 = A little, 3 = Quite a bit, 4 = Very much) to evaluate 3 defined multi-item symptom scales (endocrine, gastrointestinal and treatment related side effects), 2 single item symptoms (bone/muscle pain and concern about weight loss), 2 psychosocial scales (social function and disease-related worries) and 2 other single items (sexuality and communication). Each individual subscore was transformed to range from 0 to 100. The mean change from baseline at week 24 (end of combination phase) is presented with a higher score representing a higher level response. Thus, a better level of functioning/a worse level of symptoms.

SecondaryDCR by O6-methylguanine-DNA Methyl-transferase (MGMT) Expression and Methylation and Somatostatin Receptor (SSTR) Expression After 6 Months

In all subjects whose tumour tissue was available, MGMT expression/methylation and SSTR expression was analysed. After 6 months, the DCR (SD+PR+CR) by MGMT methylation and expression and by SSTR 2a and SSTR 5 expression was evaluated. DCR in response to MGMT methylation and expression results are presented. SSTR 2a and SSTR 5 expression is categorised as: No Receptors, Cytoplasmatic Expression (CE), Focal Expression (FE), Complete Circumferent Membrane Expression (CCME). The DCR was defined as the proportion of subjects with a response of CR, PR or SD after 6 months of combination treatment within each methylation/expression category. The DCR was described in the ITT population along with its 95% CI and was compared to 45% with an exact binomial proportion test.

SecondaryPharmacokinetic (PK) Results: Lanreotide ATG 120 mg Serum Concentrations Within 12 Months

Lanreotide ATG levels were measured in a subset of subjects to evaluate if temozolomide co-treatment had an impact on lanreotide serum concentration over a 12 month period. Blood samples were collected for the determination of lanreotide ATG in serum at baseline, weeks 4, 12, 24 and 48 (end of study). The concentrations of lanreotide ATG in serum were determined by a validated radioimmunoassay analysis method with a lower limit of quantitation of 0.08 nanograms \[ng\]/mL). Serum concentrations of lanreotide ATG at each of the time points in the combination and maintenance phase are presented. Only subjects with data available for analysis are presented.
