Brief summary
* Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET) is a rare form of cancer. Treatment options such as hormonal therapy (octreotide) and targeted therapy (everolimus and sunitinib) may be considered for grade 1 or 2 pNETs; however, cytotoxic chemotherapy is essential in cases with grade 3 pNETs or pNECs. * Cisplatin/etoposide remains the treatment of choice for high-grade pNET/pNEC. Other irinotecan-based therapies, such as FOLFIRI (cisplatin/irinotecan), FOLFOX, and temozolomide ± capecitabine, have been employed; however, a standard of care remains to be established.
Detailed description
* Lurbinectedin, a selective inhibitor of oncogenic transcription, recently received accelerated FDA approval for lung cancer (small cell type) after demonstrating efficacy in an open-label, phase II basket study (ORR 35%, mOS 9.3 months, mPFS 3.5 months). * A previous study that involved patients with grade 2 or higher NET/NEC who had undergone treatment with lurbinectedin revealed that the ORR, mOS, and mPFS of the six patients with pNET was 6.5%, 7.4 months, and 1.4 months, respectively.
Interventions
Lurbinectedin shall be administered intravenously at a dose of 3.2 mg/m2 over 60 minutes every 21 days. The administration of the study drug shall be continued until disease progression or the occurrence of unacceptable toxicity.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The overall response rate | From date of first administration of drug until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24months | The proportion of participants who achieve a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as determined by the investigators according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Disease control rate | From date of the first administration of drug until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months | 1\. Disease control is defined as the proportion of participants achieving complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) as assessed by investigators per RECIST v1.1 criteria. |
| Duration of response | From date of first documented response until the date of disease progression, relapse, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months. | from date of first response to the date of disease progression, relapse, or death |
| Evaluate the safety and tolerability of Lurbinectedin | From the date of first infusion until disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months. | Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0 |
| Progression-free survival | From the date of first infusion until the date of first documented disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months. | time from the date of first infusion to disease progression or death from any cause |
| Overall survival | from the date of first infusion until death from any cause or loss to follow-up, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months. | from the date of first infusion to death or loss to follow-up |
Other
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Tissue and blood sampling for discovering biomarkers | Every 6 weeks (two 28-day cycles) until the end of Cycle 6, and then every 9 weeks (three 28-day cycles) until documented disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months. | Biomarker should be identified by statistical methods for correlation between disease control rates, response duration, progression-free survival, and overall survival. |
