Development and Progression of Carcinoid Heart Disease in a Cohort of Adult Patients With Neuroendocrine Tumors

Study Purpose

Carcinoid Heart Disease (CHD) is a rare form of heart disease, occurring in over 50% of the patients with carcinoid syndrome. Pathophysiology, prognostic factors of development of Carcinoid Heart Disease and progression of disease remain unclear. This observational multicenter cohort study is designed to study the occurrence of Carcinoid Heart Disease in patients with differentiated carcinoid tumors, to describe numerous factors influencing the occurrence, severity, progression and long-term survival of patients with Carcinoid Heart Disease. Basic informations and detailed diagnosis informations (oncological and cardiac parameters), are collected by professional doctors. Clinical outcomes (onset of Carcinoid Heart Disease, cardiac surgery, related death) will be followed up every year or every six/three months if clinically indicated.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT03498040
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

: Patients with or at risk of carcinoid heart disease

Adult patients with well-differentiated metastatic ileum or bronchial neuroendocrine tumor Adult patients with carcinoid syndrome or elevated urinary 5HIAA regardless of primary site

Interventions

Other: - Study of the occurrence of Carcinoid Heart Disease

Patient at high risk of Carcinoid Heart Disease (metastatic ileum or bronchial well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors, patients with high level of urinary 5HIAA or with carcinoid syndrome) are followed with annual echocardiography to detect the occurrence of carcinoid heart disease. In case of documented Carcinoid Heart Disease, a six or three months' cardiac follow-up is necessary to evaluate the progression and the severity of the disease. Investigators collect the data of clinical parameters (flushes, diarrhea, …) biological parameters (urinary 5HIAA, NT-ProBNP …) and cardiac parameters that may influence the occurrence, severity and progression of Carcinoid Heart Disease.
