Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Male or female with unresectable neuroendocrine carcinoma
* Age =18 yrs
* Histologically proven neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) as defined by the WHO Classification of Tumours of the Digestive System, 4th Ed - including tumours mixed with other malignancies (i.e. MANEC or mixed NEC/SCC). The features of small versus large cell NEC carcinoma will need to be documented.
* Tumour sufficiently Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid (SUVmax minimum 3.5) on the initial staging PET
* Patients with advanced and/ or metastatic disease
* Measurable disease as assessed by CT scan of the chest, abdomen and pelvis as per RECIST v 1.1, within 21 days prior to commencement of study treatment
* ECOG performance status 0-1
* Adequate haematological, renal and hepatic function (neutrophils =2 × 109/L, platelets =100 × 109/L, hemoglobin =100g/L, total bilirubin = 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN), aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase =2.5 × ULN, alkaline phosphatases =2.5 ULN, creatinine = 1.5 ULN)
* Signed, written informed consent
Minimum age
18 Years
Maximum age
No limit
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
* NECs confirmed not to be from gastrointestinal primaries and NETs of lower grades (Ki67<20)
* Suspected pulmonary origin of the NET e.g., FDG-PET avid lung lesions in patients with NEC liver metastases.
* Known hypersensitivity to NAB paclitaxel
* External beam radiotherapy to solitary target lesions. Patients who have received local radiotherapy of non-target lesions for local symptom control within the last 4 weeks must have recovered from any adverse effects of radiotherapy prior to starting treatment.
* Prior intrahepatic 90Ymicrospheres such as SIR-Spheres
* Major surgery/surgical therapy for any cause within 1 month or surgical therapy of loco-regional metastases within the last 3 months prior to starting treatment
* Severe cardiovascular, hepatic, neurologic or renal comorbid conditions
* Previous cytotoxic chemotherapy, or targeted therapy, or biotherapy for NEC (prior Somatostatin analogs (SSAs) are allowed)
* History of hepatitis B or C
* Sensory/motor neuropathy = to grade 2, as defined by NCI CTCAE 4.0
* Pregnancy, lactation, or inadequate contraception. Women must be post-menopausal, infertile, or use a reliable means of contraception. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test done within 7 days prior to registration. Men must have been surgically sterilised or use a (double if required) barrier method of contraception
