Study Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of triapine when given together with lutetium Lu 177 dotatate in treating patients with neuroendocrine tumors. Triapine may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radioactive drugs, such as lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. Giving triapine and lutetium Lu 177 dotatate together may work better to treat patients with neuroendocrine tumors.

Primary Outcome

The MTD and RP2D will be estimated using isotonic regression based on observed dose limiting toxicity from all patients enrolled in the phase 1 portion and expansion cohort. All patients who received study drugs will be included in the safety analysis.
