Telotristat Ethyl, a Tryptophan Hydroxylase Inhibitor for the Treatment of Carcinoid Syndrome.
Purpose Preliminary studies suggested that telotristat ethyl, a tryptophan hydroxylase inhibitor, reduces bowel movement (BM) frequency in patients with carcinoid syndrome. This placebo-controlled phase III study evaluated telotristat ethyl in this setting. Patients and Methods Patients (N = 135) experiencing four or more BMs per day despite stable-dose somatostatin analog therapy received (1:1:1) placebo, telotristat ethyl 250 mg, or telotristat ethyl 500 mg three times per day orally during a 12-week double-blind treatment period. The primary end point was change from baseline in BM frequency. In an open-label extension, 115 patients subsequently received telotristat ethyl 500 mg. Results Estimated differences in BM frequency per day versus placebo averaged over 12 weeks were -0.81 for telotristat ethyl 250 mg ( P < .001) and ‒0.69 for telotristat ethyl 500 mg ( P < .001). At week 12, mean BM frequency reductions per day for placebo, telotristat ethyl 250 mg, and telotristat ethyl 500 mg were -0.9, -1.7, and -2.1, respectively. Responses, predefined as a BM frequency reduction ≥ 30% from baseline for ≥ 50% of the double-blind treatment period, were observed in 20%, 44%, and 42% of patients given placebo, telotristat ethyl 250 mg, and telotristat ethyl 500 mg, respectively. Both telotristat ethyl dosages significantly reduced mean urinary 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid versus placebo at week 12 ( P < .001). Mild nausea and asymptomatic increases in gamma-glutamyl transferase were observed in some patients receiving telotristat ethyl. Follow-up of patients during the open-label extension revealed no new safety signals and suggested sustained BM responses to treatment. Conclusion Among patients with carcinoid syndrome not adequately controlled by somatostatin analogs, treatment with telotristat ethyl was generally safe and well tolerated and resulted in significant reductions in BM frequency and urinary 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid.

Clinical Benefits of Telotristat Ethyl in Patients With Neuroendocrine Tumors and Low Bowel Movement Frequency: An Observational Patient-Reported Outcomes Study.
We evaluated carcinoid syndrome (CS) symptoms and the real-world effectiveness of telotristat ethyl (TE) among patients with ≤3 bowel movements (BM) per day.. Patients with CS initiating TE between March and November 2017 could participate in a nurse support program collecting demographic and CS symptom data before TE initiation (baseline) and during ≥1 monthly follow-up within 3 months. Symptoms for patients averaging ≤3 BM/d at baseline were evaluated using pre/post-Student t tests.. Sixty-eight patients reported ≤3 BM/d at baseline. Symptom burden was high and similar to participants with higher daily BM frequency. After 3 months of TE, most patients reported stable or improved symptoms with significant improvements in urgency (88%; mean [SD], -13.2 [32.2]), stool consistency (88%; -1.3 [2.0]), BMs per day (81%; -0.2 [1.2]), abdominal pain (86%; -13.7 [25.8]), nausea (85%; -30.9 [35.7]), and daily flushing episodes (83%; -1.7 [4.4]; all except BMs per day, P < 0.05).. This analysis illustrates high CS symptom burden among patients with relatively low daily BM frequency. After initiating TE, patients reported significant improvements in urgency, stool consistency, abdominal pain, nausea, and flushing episodes. Clinicians and population health managers should consider CS symptom burden beyond daily BM frequency when evaluating treatment selection.
