neuroendocrine tumors/구역질

Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are tumours which arise from cells of the neuroendocrine system, which is the mechanism by which the hypothalamus maintains homeostasis. Neuroendocrine cells secrete hormones, a type of signalling molecule, that play a role in many of the body's different processes

Rationale: The majority of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) patients present with metastases, most often including liver metastases. These patients have a poorer prognosis and lower quality of life. Currently, intravenous administered somatostatin-bound radionuclides (177Lu-dotatate) have shown to improve

This is a phase III study of Peptid Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) with 177Lu-DOTATATE versus Interferon α-2b. Objectives of the study: 1. To assess the benefit of 177Lu-DOTATATE versus interferon α-2b in patients with progressive, unresectable,non-pancreatic gastrointestinal neuroendocrine

This is a feasibility study evaluating the use of 177Lutetium-octreotate in the treatment of advanced refractory Neuroendocrine Tumors. Objectives of the study: 1. Primary (on a lesion basis): To assess the value of the following parameters (obtained through functional and molecular imaging) for

(177)Lutetium-DOTA-Octreotate Therapy in Somatostatin Receptor-Expressing Neuroendocrine Neoplasms First Annual Report on protocol IND# 78,256 at RITA Foundation in collaboration with Excel diagnostics and Nuclear Oncology center and Baylor College of Medicine Protocol number 78,256 calls for

Neuroendocrine tumor (NET) is a classification that has evolved over time to include a group of related tumors which all originate from neuroendocrine cells. This group includes carcinoid tumors, pancreatic endocrine tumors (PETs), catecholamine-secreting tumors (e.g. pheochromocytomas), medullary
