Phase II Clinical Study of Leflunomide in the Treatment of MEN-1 Neuroendocrine Tumor

Study Purpose

This phase II trial studies aim to evaluate the initial efficacy of leflunomide tablets in second-line treatment of advanced MEN-1 neuroendocrine tumors, and to provide evidence for phase III clinical trials.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT06540937
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Phase 2

Additional Details

1. Treatment methods Eligible patients will receive leflunomide tablets (20 mg orally, once a day, before bed) every 28 days until the disease progresses or adverse reactions become intolerable. 2. Follow-up Eligible patients should follow the requirements of the study protocol and continue to the end of the study. The purpose of the follow-up is to know whether the subjects have adverse reactions to the treatment effect and take appropriate treatment. Evaluation should be conducted every two cycles. If the test is terminated before disease progression, the subjects should be followed up every 6 weeks for imaging examination to observe whether the tumor progresses. Other antitumor therapy, hepatotoxic drugs (phenylbutazone, phenytoin, methotrexate, methyldopa, rifampicin) and traditional Chinese medicine were not allowed before the group withdrawal. At each follow-up, the patient's history is taken, and the following examinations are performed: physical examination; Blood routine, urine routine, liver and kidney function, serum tumor markers, electrocardiogram; Tumor imaging (e.g., chest and abdominal CT); Blood biomarker test; other tests required for the condition. 3. Tumor tissue/blood biomarker examination In this project, the mutation of MEN-1 gene of the patient should be tested, and blood samples of the patient and tumor tissue samples remaining during routine diagnosis and treatment should be collected. The remaining samples will be returned to the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences for storage. The results of these tests will determine whether the patient can participate in the study.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: Leflunomide tablets (20 mg orally, once a day, before going to bed) were administered every 28 days

Eligible patients will receive leflunomide tablets (20 mg orally, once a day, before bed) every 28 days until the disease progresses or adverse reactions become intolerable.

Interventions

Drug: - Leflunomide Pill

This is a single-arm, single-center, phase II clinical study. Primarily evaluated in advanced MEN-1 neuroendocrine tumors. The initial efficacy of leflunomide tablets in second-line treatment provided evidence for phase III clinical trials.
