#3018 Real-Life Data for Telotristat Ethyl in Resistant-to-Treatment Carcinoid Syndrome: Is It Efficacious in Carcinoid Flushing as Well?

Introduction: Results from clinical trials with telotristat ethyl (TE) are really encouraging about its role in carcinoid syndrome-associated diarrhoea, however, its efficacy in flushing has been equivocal.

#2840 A Real-World Study of Patients with Carcinoid Syndrome at King’s College Hospital on Long-Term Telotristat Therapy

Introduction: Telotristat ethyl is a tryptophan hydroxylase inhibitor that has been shown to be effective against symptoms of carcinoid syndrome refractory to standard somatostatin analogue therapy by directly inhibiting serotonin production. While clinical trials have established short-term efficacy of the drug, we report an exploratory real-world study of 15 patients with metastatic neuroendocrine tumours on long-term Telotristat (median duration=8 months).

#2750 Progression-Free Survival and Clinical Outcomes with Long-Term Use of Telotristat Ethyl in US Clinical Practice

Introduction: Treatment of advanced neuroendocrine tumors aims to relieve symptoms and suppress tumor growth. Primary findings from the TELEACE study suggested telotristat ethyl (TE) may reduce tumor size and impact tumor growth.

#2262 Time to Sustained Improvement in Bowel Movement Frequency with Telotristat Ethyl: Analyses of Two Phase 3 Studies in Carcinoid Syndrome

Introduction: Telotristat ethyl (TE) is a treatment for carcinoid syndrome (CS) diarrhea used in combination with somatostatin analog (SSA) therapy. In the Phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind TELESTAR and TELECAST studies, CS patients received TE at 250 mg 3 times per day (tid), 500 mg tid, or placebo tid in addition to SSAs.

#1942 Telotristat Ethyl in Carcinoid Syndrome: Safety and Efficacy Results of an Open-Label Extension of the TELECAST Phase 3 Clinical Trial

Introduction: TELECAST assessed telotristat ethyl (TE), a tryptophan hydroxylase inhibitor, in patients (pts) with carcinoid syndrome (CS) with ≥1 CS symptom/sign and a mean 2.5 bowel movements (BMs) per day. Pts were somatostatin analog treated (89%), with gastrointestinal (90%; [diarrhea, 70%]) and cardiac disorders (42%), including carcinoid heart disease. At Week (W) 12, TE (250 and 500 mg 3×/day; tid) significantly reduced urinary 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (u5-HIAA) and BMs/day vs placebo (pbo) (p≤0.008). After W12, pts crossed over to an open-label extension (OLE) with TE 500 mg tid (W13–48).
