In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Everolimus is approved in many countries to treat patients with advanced/metastatic well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (NET), providing median progression-free survival times of approximately 12 months across different types of NET. However, it is can cause severe adverse effects. Phase I trial demonstrated that a dose of 5mg/day/week was sufficient to inhibit cell proliferation by blocking the mTOR pathway. This is a randomized, open-label, phase II near-equivalence clinical trial of oral everolimus 5 mg vs 10 mg oral/daily and continuously in patients with Grade 1 or Grade 2 metastatic NET, with tumor progression or intolerance to at least one line of treatment and with radiological disease progression within 6 months.
