Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Response Rate in Plasma Glucose Level
at Month 3 (M3)

Response rate is defined as percentage of patients with no glucose values \< 60 mg/dL at 90,120, 150 and 180 min during the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) at the end of s.c. dose escalation phase

Escalation phase: Frequency of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) at each dose level associated with monthly administration of pasireotide LAR during the first two treatment cycles by CTCAE version 4.03.
Day 56

DLT is defined as an adverse event or abnormal laboratory value assessed as unrelated to disease progression, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medications as defined per study prototol. These will be evaluated according to the CTCAE v4.03.

Expansion phase: Proportion of patients without PSA-progression at 6 months compared to baseline.
6 months

Progression is defined as a PSA-increase of at least 25% and an absolute increase of at least 2 ng/ml from a nadir value, confirmed by a second value four weeks later.
