Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with confirmed advanced neuroendocrine neoplasms who have at least one measurable lesion by RECIST 1.1, adequate organ and marrow function, and a life expectancy greater than 12 weeks are ideal candidates.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with contraindications to surufatinib (for example active bleeding, uncontrolled hypertension, recent major surgery, severe hepatic or renal impairment), pregnant individuals, or those receiving conflicting investigational therapies are unlikely to be eligible or to benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, open-label phase 4 study enrolling about 350 adults with histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced neuroendocrine neoplasms and measurable disease. Participants receive oral surufatinib as monotherapy (300 mg once daily) or in combination regimens (250 mg once daily) per treating physician judgment, with treatment continued until progression or unacceptable toxicity. Regular imaging, laboratory tests, cardiac monitoring, and patient-reported outcome questionnaires will track tumor response, adverse events, quality of life, and treatment adherence. Primary endpoints include progression-free survival, objective response rate, disease control rate, overall survival, and a comprehensive safety assessment.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, surufatinib could prolong disease control and help maintain or improve quality of life for people with advanced neuroendocrine neoplasms.
How similar studies have gone: Surufatinib has demonstrated clinically meaningful efficacy in prior phase 3 trials for both pancreatic and extra‑pancreatic NETs, and this phase 4 work aims to characterize its real-world use.
