Background: Pancreatic-NETs are highly vascular tumors. The anti-angiogenetic sunitinib was approved in advanced pNETs based on prolongation of progression-free survival. Upregulation of several proangiogenic factors that reflects intratumor hypoxia conditions might drive resistance to sunitinib in pNETs. Evofosfamide is a prodrug that under hypoxic conditions preferentially releases a brominated version of isophosphoramide mustard and has shown activity in cell lines from neural crest derived tumors such as melanoma and glioblastoma/astrocytoma. We hypothesize that evofosfamide may have activity in the pathologic hypoxic conditions present in the tumor environment of neuroendocrine tumors inducing responses that may be consolidated and prolonged with sunitinib in patients with advanced pNETs that are naïve for systemic treatment. Methods: This is a prospective, non randomized, open-label, phase II study that is being conducted in 10 university sites belonging to the Spanish Task Force Group for NETs (GETNE) in Spain. Patients with histologically proven diagnosis of progressive unresectable or metastatic pNET with Ki67 < 20% and grade 1 or 2 will receive sunitinib orally at 37.5 mg PO daily on days 1 to 28 of a 28-day cycle (4 weeks) plus evofosfamide administered at 340 mg/m2 by IV infusion over 30-60 minutes on Days 8, 15 and 22 of a 28-day cycle (4 weeks). Hypoxia-related tumor markers, single nucleotide polymorphisms related to activity and metabolism of antiangiogenic agents (VEGFR2, VEGFR3, PDGFR-α, VEGF-A, IL8, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, ABCB1-2) will be correlated with clinical outcome. In this study it is planned to include 43 patientsbased on a two-stage Simon’s phase II design (α = 0.05, β = 80%). If the trial shows 8 responses or more among 43 patients, the treatment will be considered for further investigation. EudraCT number: 2014-004072-30 Clinical trial information: NCT02402062
