ClinicalTrials ID:NCT04919226

This clinical trial is testing a new treatment called Lutetium 177Lu-Edotreotide against the best standard care for patients with aggressive grade 2 and 3 neuroendocrine tumors in the stomach, intestines, or pancreas. The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and patient experiences of this new treatment.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The study is designed to compare the effectiveness and safety of a new treatment called peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) using 177Lu-Edotreotide with the best standard care available. This treatment is for patients with aggressive grade 2 and grade 3 neuroendocrine tumors that are well-differentiated and have somatostatin receptors. These tumors originate in the stomach, intestines, or pancreas. The study will also look at how patients feel about their treatment and any side effects they experience.
