73 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Treatment of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic macula edema has included panretinal photocoagulation and intra ocular injections of anti-vascular endothelial growth factors (anti-VEGF) agents and steroids. Anti-VEGF therapy is currently the first-line treatment for proliferative diabetic retinopathies; however, this approach is ineffective in more than 30% of patients with diabetic retinal complications. Available evidence shows that subcutaneous (under the skin) injection of octreotide, a somatostatin analog, has potential therapeutic benefits in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and diabetic macula edema (DME). This study thus seeks to determine the efficacy and safety of intranasal DDM-octreotide in the treatment of diabetic macula edema in individuals that are considered to be refractory to the current therapeutic options.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of CAM2029 to octreotide LAR or lanreotide ATG in patients with advanced, well-differentiated GEP-NET. Patients who experience progressive disease in the randomized part of the study may proceed to an open-label extension part with intensified treatment with CAM2029.
The purpose of this trial is to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of CAM2029 in patients with acromegaly. Patients will be administered CAM2029 subcutaneously once monthly during 12 months. Patients fulfilling trial NCT04076462 will be offered to continue with open-label treatment week 24-52 in this trial. Patients completing the main part of the trial will be offered 52 weeks continued open-label treatment in an extension part.
The purpose of this trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of CAM2029 in patients with acromegaly. Patients will be randomized to either CAM2029 or placebo administered subcutaneously once monthly during 6 months.
This study is being done to evaluate differences in patient experience during treatment with octreotide LAR and lanreotide.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether administration of octreotide (12-25 mcg/hour) for 72 hours in combination with the standard of care treatment is effective in reducing bronchorrhea (excessive airway secretions) in mechanically ventilated patients. The use of this drug (octreotide) to manage bronchorrhea has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is used as an experimental drug in this research study. We are anticipating to enroll approximately 30 subjects in this study at Danbury Hospital, with 15 patients randomly assigned to the "Routine Care" group, which will serve as the control group, and 15 patients randomly assigned to the octreotide group. Control group will only receive the standard of care and will not receive this drug. Total subject participation in this study will be for 4 days (96 hours) or until their breathing tube is removed (extubation), whichever occurs first.
MYCAPSSA™ (formerly Octreolin™) is a proprietary oral form of the approved injectable medical product octreotide used to treat acromegaly. This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of MYCAPSSA™ treatment in patients with acromegaly.
This is a long term study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of an Octreotide Implant in patients that were previously treated with an Octreotide implant.
Background: Hypoglycemia is a common presentation to the Emergency Department. Management has traditionally involved rapid administration of IV 50% dextrose and dextrose containing IV fluids in addition to oral carbohydrates. Hypoglycemic patients taking only insulin can often times be treated as outlined above and safely discharged to home after a period of short observation in the Emergency Department. This procedure is also followed in the pre-hospital care arena, where insulin-dependent hypoglycemic patients are often treated and released. In addition to diet-control and insulin, patients with diabetes maintain outpatient euglycemia with a class of drugs called sulfonylurea agents. This are believed to stimulate insulin release from pancreatic beta cells via a complex mechanism culminating in calcium influx and release of stored insulin from secretory granules within the pancreas. Whereas insulin-dependent diabetic patients are usually discharged home after establishing normal blood glucose levels, hospital admission is generally recommended in hypoglycemic patients taking oral sulfonylureas due to the long duration of effect and delayed clearance of the drugs and their metabolites and subsequent high likelihood of recurrent hypoglycemic episodes. Octreotide is a somatostatin analog that is known to suppress numerous hormones including insulin. Dextrose itself induces insulin secretion thus theoretically contributing to rebound hypoglycemia when used to treat hypoglycemia. Octreotide is thought to block the elevated insulin levels that are a result of both the sulfonlyureas and dextrose. Recent case reports and one prospective study in healthy volunteers have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of octreotide administration for the treatment of sulfonylurea induced hypoglycemia. Based largely on the results of these studies some experts in field of toxicology have argued that administration of octreotide be standard therapy for all patients with recurrent hypoglycemic episodes who are known to be taking sulfonylureas. Purpose: Measure the difference in serum glucose and the incidence of hypoglycemia between two groups of sulfonylurea-dependent patients; a control group that receives standard therapy and an experimental group that receives standard therapy plus octreotide.

The purpose of this study is to investigate over a 6 month period the effect of octreotide therapy on food intake, sense of hunger, body weight, body composition, efficiency of burning calories, biomarkers of weight regulation and growth hormone markers in children and young Adults with Prader-Willi Syndrome(PWS).
: Headaches are a common complaint presenting to the emergency department (ED), accounting for 1-2% of all ED visits, with migraines as the second most common primary headache syndrome. Patients that ultimately present to the ED have failed outpatient therapy and exhibit severe and persistent symptoms. Treatment options have been traditionally with a parenteral opiod, generally Demerol. Unfortunately, patients with chronic painful conditions like migraines have been prone to dependency. In 1986, a nonopioid, compazine was noted serendipitously to relieve migraine headache pain. 1 Nonopioid regimens have evolved as standard therapy in the treatment of migrainne headache in the ED. Today, there are a number of nonopioid treatment options, but not without their own individual concerns. Ergotamine and dihydroergotamine are effective, but commonly cause nausea and vomiting. Sumatriptan is expensive has recurrence rate, is ineffective in about 20-30%, and is contra-indicated in patients with cardiac disease. Metoclopramide, a dopamine receptor antagonist, commonly used as an anti-emetic agent, has been widely studied for use with acute migraines. Its side effects include drowsiness and dystonic reactions. Compazine has been successfully used to treat migraine headaches for the past several decades, and has been accepted as standard treatment of headaches in the ED. 2 Its side effect profile includes extrapyramidal effects, dysphoria, drowsiness and akathisias. The ideal medication for treating headaches would have no addictive properties, few side effects, quick onset, be highly effective and have a low rate of recurrence. Somatostatin is known to have an inhibitory effect on a number of neuropetides, which have been implicated in migraine. Native somatostatin is an unstable compound and is broken down in minutes, but octreotide, a somatostatin analogue has a longer half life. Intravenous somatostatin has been shown to be as effective as ergotamine in the acute treatment of cluster headache. 3 The analgesic effect of octreotide with headaches associated with growth hormone secreting tumor has been established. 4 Five somatostatin receptors have been cloned with octreotide acting predominantely on sst2 and sst5. The distribution of sst2 within the central nervous system strongly suggests that this particular somatostatin receptor has a role in cranial nociception, being highly expressed in the trigeminal nucleus caudalis and periaqueductal grey. Kapicioglu et.al performed a double blind study comparing octreotide to placebo in treating migraine. They found there to be a significantly greater relief of pain with octreotide at 2 and 6 hours compared to placebo (76% vs 25%, p\<0.02). They noted that 47% of those in the octreotide group had complete relief compared to no patients in the placebo group. They went on to note that those patients in the octreotide group had earlier relief of symptoms and no side effects. The only minor adverse event related to the administration of octreotide was a local reaction in 3 patients (18%). In a study performed recently in Netherlands, no clinically relevant changes in vital signs, routine chemistry, and urinalysis were observed with octreotide use. Electrocardiogram analyses showed no newly occurring or worsening of known cardiac abnormalities 2 and 24 h after injection with octreotide. 5 Levy et. al also compared octreotide to placebo in a double blinded study but found no difference. This was a poorly designed study, in that the patients treated themselves at home with an injection of either placebo or octreotide for 2 episodes of headache and recorded their level of pain relief at 2 hours. Matharu et. al also performed a double blind study comparing octreotide to placebo, but looking at cluster headaches rather than migraines. They found there to be a significant improvement with the use of octreotide over placebo (52% vs 36%). At Darnall Army Community Hospital the cost of 100 mcg Octreotide and10 mg Compazine, is $10.46, $2.02-8.00, respectively.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of Octreotide on saliva enzymes. The study team hypothesizes that Octreotide will decrease the levels of certain proteins, specifically the metalloproteinase family.
The purpose of the trial is to compare the effectiveness and safety of 2 treatment regimens of CAM2029 (given weekly or every 2 weeks) to placebo in participants with symptomatic PLD, either isolated as in autosomal dominant PLD (ADPLD) or associated with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). In the Treatment Period of the trial, participants will be allocated at random to 1 of the 3 treatment arms in a 1:1:1 ratio. After completing the Treatment Period (53 weeks) participants may proceed to a 120-week open-label extension part of the trial and then only receive the same CAM2029 treatment. The active ingredient in CAM2029, octreotide, is administered as a subcutaneous depot using Camurus' FluidCrystal® technology.

This is a Phase 2 peptide receptor radionuclide therapy trial of 90Y-DOTATOC in patients with somatostatin receptor positive tumors.
Octreotide capsule is a novel, orally-administered formulation of the commercially-available injectable drug octreotide. In a recent phase 3 trial, oral octreotide capsules demonstrated maintenance of biochemical response up to 13 months in the majority of patients with acromegaly previously managed with somatostatin analog injections (reference below).
This will be a prospective, randomized, double blind trial enrolling patients who will undergo major liver resection. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either octreotide or placebo in the postoperative period. The patients will receive octreotide intravenously continuously for five days after operation. During this period the patients' health will be monitored by performing blood tests including complete metabolic profile, Complete Blood Count (CBC) with/diff., INR and PTT. The functioning of heart will also be monitored post-operatively by EKG. Up to 80 participants will be accrued over a 2 year period. Volumetric CT scans will be performed prior to hepatectomy, 1 week after hepatectomy and 3 months after hepatectomy to evaluate liver regeneration.
The purpose of this study is to understand how people with neuroendocrine tumors respond to treatment with lanreotide after having received treatment with octreotide.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the drug octreotide acetate in a new intranasal formulation and compare it to the FDA-approved subcutaneous (SC) injection formulation. The two octreotide acetate formulations will be evaluated following separate administrations for safety and tolerability including any side effects, the speed at which the drug is absorbed and eliminated in the body, and the ability of the drug to lower the levels of growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1).
An observational time and motion study in a clinical oncology setting is utilized in order to measure and compare product attributes and overall product efficiency between lanreotide and octreotide LAR.
Octreotide capsule is a novel, orally-administered formulation of the commercially-available injectable drug octreotide. In a recent phase 3 trial (OPTMAL; NCT03252353), oral octreotide capsules demonstrated sustained biochemical response up to 13 months in patients with acromegaly previously managed with somatostatin analog injections (ref). The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy, safety, and patient reported outcomes (PROs) between oral octreotide capsules and injectable somatostatin receptor ligands (SRLs).
To evaluate the effect of octreotide acetate injections (200 µg 3 times daily \[tid\]) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of telotristat ethyl and its metabolite LP-778902 relative to administration of single-dose telotristat etiprate in healthy male and female subjects
Our hypothesis is that prophylactic administration of 5 days of Octreotide following EMR or ampullectomy in patients with duodenal and ampullary adenomas greater than or equal to 10mm.
Between 10% and 15% of patients with endogenous hypercortisolism (Cushing syndrome) have ectopic (non-pituitary) production of adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH) that causes cortisol excess. In approximately 50% of these patients, the tumoral source of ACTH cannot be found initially despite very detailed and extensive imaging, including studies such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and octreotide scan (Octreoscan) using the standard dose of indium- 111 pentetreotide (\[111In-DTPA-D-Phe\]-pentetreotide). The sensitivity and specificity of structurally based imaging studies depends on anatomic alterations and the size of the tumor. In contrast, positron emission tomography (PET) and somatostatin ligand imaging detect pathologic tissue based on physiologic and biochemical processes within the abnormal tissue. This protocol tests the ability of \[18F\]-L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (18F-DOPA) PET, and the somatostatin imaging analogue, 68Ga-DOTATATE-PET, to localize the source of ectopic ACTH production.
The research study is designed to test how a medication called octreotide affects the motility (contraction or squeezing) of the colon (large intestine). Investigators are investigating whether octreotide can increase contraction and movement in the colon.
The primary purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of high-dose octreotide on flushing, diarrhea, and quality of life in patients whose disease-related symptoms are inadequately controlled by the maximum approved dose of octreotide LAR.
The investigators hypothesize that octreotide LAR (Long Acting Release) safely decreases GI bleeding in patients with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). Patients undergoing implantation of non-pulsatile, continuous-flow LVAD have a higher incidence of gastrointestinal bleeding. This is a significantly associated morbidity and can threaten a patient's life as well as their ability to undergo eventual heart transplantation secondary to both general health/strength and the potential development of antibodies to blood products that would make future transfusions and transplantations more difficult. If this research finds that use of octreotide LAR can decrease the incidence of gastrointestinal bleeding in this patient population, it will revolutionize the manner in which these patients are managed. The finding of reduced GI bleeding would allow the patient to have less exposure to blood products, reduce hospitalizations, and ensure that subsequent transplant planning not be delayed. This would not only be of great benefit to the patient, but would significantly decrease health-care costs through preventive measures. The goal of this project is to study whether the regular administration of monthly octreotide LAR is safe and if it will decrease the incidence of gastrointestinal bleeding in patients undergoing implantation of non-pulsatile, continuous flow left ventricular assist devices (LVAD).
This protocol is designed to test the efficacy of 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT in diagnosis, staging, and measurement of response to treatment in patients with somatostatin receptor positive tumors. Goals are to 1) compare this unique PET/CT scan with the current standard of care which is a combination of Octreoscan SPECT (single photon emission tomography) plus a high resolution, contrast enhanced CT; 2) Determine the sensitivity of 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT in diagnosis of patients with suspected somatostatin receptor positive tumor; and 3) For those patients who have had recent treatment (e.g., surgery, chemotherapy, targeted therapy such as anti-angiogenics, kinase inhibitors, peptide receptor radiotherapy), this scan will be used to measure response to treatment. These studies will be obtained with the long term goal of submitting a New Drug Application (NDA) for FDA approval of 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT in adults and children.
