AIM I \& II: Patients complete questionnaires over 10-40 minutes 2-4 times per year about health and how finances and quality of life effect experience with disease.

AIM III: Patients complete a questionnaire over 2 minutes and undergo blood pressure measurements every day for up to 12 weeks.

This study utilizes a multi-institutional registry to describe the natural history of medullary thyroid cancer that has spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) in understanding disease management. The goal of this study is to learn about how medullary thyroid cancer develops and progresses.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To describe the natural history of medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) using a comprehensive battery of demographic, clinical, pathologic, and genotypic variables collected in our existing multi-institutional patient registry.

Ia. To describe the demographic, clinical, pathologic, and genotypic variables associated with each phase of disease.

Ib. To identify those variables which are predictors of progression to the most advanced phases of disease that require small molecule therapy, including commercially approved and experimental agents.

II. To characterize patients' experience with the different phases of MTC through a systematic evaluation of patient-reported outcomes (PROs).

IIa. To describe clinical, psychosocial, economic, and physical well-being variables and the subsequent impact on quality of life associated with each phase of disease.

IIb. To evaluate longitudinal changes in clinical, psychosocial, economic, and physical well-being variables between and within all phases of MTC, and the subsequent impact they have on quality of life.

III. To evaluate the association of selected biometric and patient-reported outcomes on adherence, change, and discontinuation of approved targeted therapies and drugs being tested within clinical trial.

OUTLINE:

AIM I \& II: Patients complete questionnaires over 10-40 minutes 2-4 times per year about health and how finances and quality of life effect experience with disease.

AIM III: Patients complete a questionnaire over 2 minutes and undergo blood pressure measurements every day for up to 12 weeks.

The questionnaire data gets paired with the collected medical record history that is maintained in the Registry.

Natural History of Medullary Thyroid Cancer to Inform Advanced Disease Management

Utilization of the Natural History of Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma to Inform Advanced Disease Management

Patients receive 177Lu-DOTATATE IV over 30 minutes every 8-16 weeks. Treatment continues for up to 52 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Lutetium Lu 177 Dotatate

Camilo Jimenez

This phase II trial studies how well 177Lu-DOTATATE works in treating patients with rare endocrine cancers that have spread from where they started to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), spread to other places in the body (metastatic), or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Radioactive drugs, such as 177Lu-DOTATATE, may carry radiation directly to cancer cells and not harm normal cells. 177Lu-DOTATATE may help to control endocrine cancers compared to standard treatment.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. Objective response rate (ORR) by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 determined by Ia. Computed tomography (CT) or Ib. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate progression-free survival at 1-year. II. To correlate blood pressure control and change/discontinuation of antihypertensive medications with tumor responses in patients with pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PHPGs).

III. To correlate plasma metanephrines and chromogranin A with tumor responses in patients with PHPGs.

IV. To correlate calcitonin, carcinoembryonic antigen, and chromogranin A with tumor responses in patients with medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTCs).

V. To correlate pituitary hormones (depending on particular tumor, e.g. prolactin for prolactinomas, insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) for acromegaly, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and 24-hour urine free cortisol for Cushing disease, and chromogranin A with tumor responses in patients with functional pituitary carcinomas).

VI. To correlate calcium, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), and chromogranin A with tumor responses in patients with parathyroid carcinoma.

VII. Toxicity assessment by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 (CTCAE 5.0).

VIII. To correlate tumor responses with tumor uptake score in somatostatin receptor scintigraphy, overall prognosis and responsiveness to lutetium Lu 177 dotatate (177Lu-DOTATATE).

IX. To determine the percentage of tumors that demonstrate uptake on diagnostic 68Gallium-DOTATATE positron emission tomography (PET)/CT that would make treatment with 177Lu-DOTATATE feasible.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate pituitary function in all patients to look for possible radiation late effects on the pituitary gland.

II. To estimate best biochemical response for specific tumor markers in patients with non-measurable disease.

III. To correlate biochemical response in patients with non-measurable disease with RECIST 1.1 tumor response criteria for patients with non-measurable disease.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive 177Lu-DOTATATE intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes every 8-16 weeks. Treatment continues for up to 52 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at week 72 and then every 24 weeks for up to 5 years.

Radioactive Drug (177Lu-DOTATATE) for the Treatment of Locally Advanced, Metastatic, or Unresectable Rare Endocrine Cancers

A Phase II Study to Evaluate the Effects of 177Lu-DOTATATE in Patients With Unresectable and Progressive Rare Metastatic Endocrine Carcinomas: Medullary Thyroid Cancer, Parathyroid Carcinoma, Pituitary Carcinoma, and Malignant Pheochromocytoma/Paraganglioma

Assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 determined by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Will be calculated as the proportion of patients with complete responses (CR), partial responses (PR), or stable disease (SD) at the CT/MRI assessment time point.
