Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) with 177Lu-DOTATATE in Advanced Gastro-entero Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

Overview

This is a randomized phase II non-comparative study. Patients with gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine tumour (GEP-NET) G1-G2 with progressive disease, SSR positive and FDG negative will be enrolled in the study and will be randomly assigned to 2 different dosages (total activity of 25.9 GBq and total activity of 18.5 GBq).
