Brief summary

This study will investigate the safety, symptoms and biomarker response of subjects with biopsy-proven well-differentiated, low-to-intermediate-grade, unresectable, or metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) or or Gastrointestinal Neuroendocrine tumors (GI-NETs) with elevated biochemical markers who have relapsed during or after receiving prior standard of care therapies, including octreotide, chemotherapy or targeted therapy.

Detailed description

Subjects enrolled in this PNET/GI-NET study (OX4218s) will receive weekly dosing with fosbretabulin for up to 3 cycles or approximately 9 weeks.

Interventions

60 mg/m2, IV on Day 1, 8 and 15 of a 3-week cycle; 3 cycles or until progression or unacceptable toxicity

Exclusion criteria

* Inadequately controlled hypertension defined as BP \> 150/100 mm Hg despite medication * Prior history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy * Recent history (within 6 months of start of screening) of unstable angina pectoris pattern, myocardial infarction (including non-Q wave MI), or NYHA (New York Heart Association) Class III and IV Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) * Subjects who have clinical evidence of carcinoid-induced heart disease * History of prior cerebrovascular accident (CVA), including transient ischemic attach (TIA) * Known central nervous system (CNS) disease except for treated brain metastasis * History of torsade de pointes, ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation, pathologic sinus bradycardia (\<60 bpm), heart block (excluding 1st degree block, being PR interval prolongation only), congenital long QT syndrome or new ST segment elevation or depression or new Q wave on ECG * Corrected QT interval (QTc) \> 480 msec * Ongoing treatment with any drugs known to prolong the QTc interval, including anti-arrhythmic medications (stable regimen of antidepressants of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) class is allowed)) * Evidence of bleeding diathesis or significant coagulopathy (in the absence of therapeutic anticoagulation) * Significant vascular disease or recent peripheral arterial thrombosis * Known intolerance of or hypersensitivity to fosbretabulin * History of solid organ transplant or bone marrow transplant * Any other intercurrent medical condition, including mental illness or substance abuse, deemed by the Investigator to be likely to interfere with a subject's ability to sign informed consent, cooperate and participate in the study, or interfere with the interpretation of the results * High grade or poorly differentiated NET * NET tumor other than PNET or GI-NET * No elevated biomarker (\>ULN) that can be followed * Received regional hepatic infusion therapy within 6 months of enrollment (RFA allowed \>6 months prior to enrollment)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Partial Response (PR), Progressive Disease (PD), or Stable Disease (SD) Based on RECIST 1.1Baseline and 4 monthsThe objective response rate (complete response, partial response, progressive disease, or stable disease) was determined by the investigator assessment of the participant's CT or MRI using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST 1.1) for target lesions. Partial Response (PR) is when there is at least 30% decrease in sum of the longest diameter of the target lesions. Progressive Disease (PD) is when there is at least 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of the target lesions, as well as an absolute increase of at least 5 mm (including appearance of new lesions). Stable Disease (SD) is when there neither a PR nor PD is noted.
