A Randomized Phase II Study of Temozolomide or Temozolomide and Capecitabine in Patients With Advanced Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

This randomized phase II trial studies how well giving temozolomide with or without
capecitabine works in treating patients with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Drugs
used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop
the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by
stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether temozolomide is more effective with
or without capecitabine in treating patients with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) associated with temozolomide alone or
temozolomide and capecitabine in patients with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate response rates (RR) associated with temozolomide alone or temozolomide and
capecitabine treatment in patients with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.

II. To evaluate overall survival (OS) associated with temozolomide alone or temozolomide and
capecitabine in patients with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.

III. To evaluate the toxicity associated with temozolomide alone or temozolomide and
capecitabine treatment in patients with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.

IV. To evaluate the usefulness of methyl guanine methyltransferase (MGMT) status (by
immunohistochemistry [IHC] and promoter methylation) for predicting response in pancreatic
neuroendocrine tumor patients treated with either temozolomide or temozolomide and
capecitabine.

V. To bank radiology images for evaluation of quality, reproducibility, and compliance with
computed tomography (CT) methodology.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

ARM A: Patients receive temozolomide orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-5. Treatment
repeats every 28 days for up to 13 courses in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity.

ARM B: Patients receive capecitabine PO twice daily (BID) on days 1-14 and temozolomide PO QD
on days 10-14. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 13 courses in the absence of disease
progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years, and
then every 6 months for 3 years.
