Treatment for recurrent or progressive meningiomas using a new radiolabelled somatostatin antagonist

Treatment of Recurrent or Progressive Meningiomas With the Radiolabelled Somatostatin Antagonist 177Lu-Satoreotide (PROMENADE-Study)

Phase1; Phase2 Interventional University Hospital, Basel, Switzerland · NCT04997317

This study is testing a new treatment using a special type of radiation to see if it can help people with recurring or worsening meningiomas feel better compared to a standard treatment.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness and safety of a newly developed radiolabelled somatostatin antagonist, 177Lu-DOTA-JR11, in treating recurrent or progressive meningiomas. The study compares the therapeutic index of this new treatment against a standard somatostatin analogue, 177Lu-DOTATOC, in patients with confirmed meningiomas. Participants will undergo a series of treatments and assessments to determine the efficacy and safety of the new therapy. The trial aims to provide insights into the potential benefits of targeted radionuclide therapy for advanced meningioma patients.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults over 18 years old with histologically or clinically confirmed recurrent or progressive meningiomas who have no other standard treatment options available.

Not a fit: Patients with non-recurrent or stable meningiomas or those who have other effective treatment alternatives may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could offer a more effective option for patients with recurrent or progressive meningiomas, potentially improving their outcomes.

How similar studies have performed: Previous studies using peptide receptor radionuclide therapy have shown promising results in treating similar conditions, suggesting potential success for this novel approach.
