Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Determine the MTD/RP2D of pasireotide LAR when administered i.m. q28 days to patients with advanced NETs [ Time Frame: Sequentiona 56 day cohorts until the MTD is determined ]
    Frequency of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) at each dose level associated with q28 days administration of pasireotide LAR during the first 2 treatment cycles.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. assess the safety and tolerability of pasireotide LAR [ Time Frame: minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles ]
    Incidence of adverse drug events, overall and by severity and incidence of serious adverse events and laboratory abnormalities. Also, changes in laboratory assessments, electrocardiograms, Holter monitor, imaging for gallstones, and assessment of physical examinations such as vital signs

  2. assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of pasireotide LAR [ Time Frame: minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles ]
    Pasireotide Cmax and Ctrough

  3. assess the pharmacodynamics (PD) of pasireotide LAR [ Time Frame: minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles ]
    Changes from baseline values in IGF-1, chromogranin A and neuron-specific enolase

  4. assess the preliminary efficacy (anti-tumor activity) of pasireotide LAR. [ Time Frame: minimum of twelve 28 day cycles to approximately eighteen 28 day cycles ]
    Disease control rate (CR+PR+SD as assessed by RECIST 1.0). Also measure progression free survival (PFS).
