About this trial
Novel treatments are urgently needed for meningiomas progressing after local therapies (surgery, radiotherapy). So far, no effective systemic therapies are known in this situation. The LUMEN-1 trial will investigate in a prospective randomized trial the efficacy of the precision medicine "theranostic" concept of combining diagnostic patient selection using PET-based molecular imaging and target-specific therapeutic intervention using a systemically administered radioligand.
The rationale for the LUMEN-1 trial is based on the following: (a) high somatostatin receptor (SSTR) expression in meningiomas, (b) wide-spread availability of clinically established SSTR-PET imaging, (c) proven efficacy of SSTR-targeting radioligand therapy using \[177Lu\]Lu-DOTATATE in another tumor type (neuroendocrine tumors), and (d) promising experiences with \[177Lu\]Lu-DOTATATE therapy in compassionate use applications and retrospective case series and interim results from one ongoing uncontrolled prospective trial in meningiomas. LUMEN-1 is the first randomized clinical trial to investigate \[177Lu\]Lu-DOTATATE therapy in refractory meningioma and may open new avenues for treatment and research in this area.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Adult patient ≥ 18 years of age
Histologically confirmed diagnosis of meningioma (all grades, 1-3 per WHO CNS5, are eligible)
WHO performance status 0-2
Measurable disease (at least 10 x10 mm contrast enhancing lesion) on cranial MRI no more than two weeks prior to randomization
Disqualifiers
Local therapy (surgery and / or radiotherapy) indicated per local investigator. Note: in case of patients with multiple meningioma lesions, in whom resection and / or radiotherapy of individual lesions is indicated, patients may be included after local therapy (with a 4-week gap between surgery / end of radiotherapy and start of treatment), if at least one remaining lesion fulfils the inclusion criteria.
Any combined or any prior systemic treatment regardless the timing.
Life expectancy is less than nine weeks.
History of any other invasive malignancy within the last five years (except adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer, clinically localized and very low-risk prostate cancer, and adequately treated cervical intraepithelial neoplasia)
