Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Phase 1b: Frequency of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and AEs leading to treatment discontinuation
Within the first six weeks of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE treatment]

A dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as an AE or abnormal laboratory value assessed as unrelated to disease, disease progression, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medications with an onset within the first cycle of initiation of \[177Lu\]Lu-DOTA-TATE treatment. The National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse events (NCI CTCAE) version 5.0 will be used for AE grading.

Phase ll: Overall survival (OS)
In the phase II part: From date of randomization until date of death from any cause, assessed up to 3 years (estimated final Overall Survival (OS) analysis)

To assess efficacy of \[177Lu\]Lu-DOTA-TATE in combination with atezolizumab, carboplatin, and etoposide (experimental arm) versus standard of care consisting of carboplatin, etoposide, and atezolizumab (control arm) in terms of overall survival

Group 1: Frequency of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs)
49 to 52 days starting from first administration of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE

A dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as an AE or abnormal laboratory value assessed as unrelated to disease, disease progression, inter-current illness, or concomitant medications that meets any of the criteria defining dose-limiting toxicities and with an onset during the DLT observation period specified for the group. • Group 1: DLT observation period of 49 to 52 days starting from the first administration of \[177Lu\]Lu-DOTA-TATE (Day 1) and ending with the completion of concomitant RT and TMZ. The 49 to 52 days observation period is depending on the start day of concomitant RT and TMZ (i.e. 7-10 days post first \[177Lu\]Lu-DOTA-TATE dose). If the concomitant RT and TMZ is delayed for any reason, the DLT observation period will last until the completion of the concomitant treatment. If RT or TMZ is delayed, the DLT observation period will last until the last administered dose, whichever occurs later.

Group 3: Frequency of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs)
42 days starting from first administration of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE

A dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as an AE or abnormal laboratory value assessed as unrelated to disease, disease progression, inter-current illness, or concomitant medications that meets any of the criteria defining dose-limiting toxicities and with an onset during the DLT observation period specified for the group. • Group 3: DLT observation period of 42 days starting from the first administration of \[177Lu\]Lu-DOTA-TATE (Day 1) i.e. accounting for 2 cycles of Lu\]Lu-DOTA-TATE.

Secondary Endpoints

Phase lb: Objective Response Rate (ORR) based on Investigator assessment
From date of randomization until date of progression or date of death from any cause, whichever come first, assessed for up to 3 years (estimated final Overall Survival (OS) analysis)
Phase lb: Duration of Response (DOR)
From date of randomization until date of progression or date of death from any cause, whichever come first, assessed for up to 3 years (estimated final Overall Survival (OS) analysis)
Phase lb: Progression Free Survival (PFS) based on Investigator assessment
From date of randomization until date of progression or date of death from any cause, whichever come first, assessed for up to 3 years (estimated final OS analysis)
