Long-term pasireotide-LAR treatment in the personalized therapy of patients with complex acromegaly: a collection of clinical experiences

open access: yesDrugs in Context
Pasireotide-LAR is recommended as a second-line treatment for patients with acromegaly. Although the effects of pasireotide-LAR have been well characterized in clinical studies, real-practice evidence is scant, especially in the long term and within the ...

Pasireotide‐induced hyperglycemia in a patient with Cushing's disease: Potential use of sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist for treatment

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2020
Pasireotide improves hypercortisolemia and induces hyperglycemia via somatostatin receptor type‐5 stimulation. GLP‐1RA and SGLT2 inhibitor potentially help regulate hyperglycemia in patients with Cushing's disease, especially after pasireotide ...

Antiparallel β‐Sheet as a Key Motif of Amyloid‐β Inhibitor Designed via Topological Peptide Reprogramming

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 28, July 7, 2025.
Targeting Amyloid‐β (Aβ) aggregation requires a peptide‐based approach that accounts for the structural heterogeneity of Aβ. Here, we employ topological reprogramming via disulfide bonds to stabilize antiparallel β‐sheets within the dimeric peptide.

Pasireotide in an insulin-requiring diabetic acromegalic patient without worsening of hyperglycemia

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports, 2017
Long-acting pasireotide is an effective treatment option for acromegaly, but it is associated with hyperglycemia, which could impact its use in patients with diabetes.

Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Switching to Pasireotide in Patients With Acromegaly Inadequately Controlled With First-Generation Somatostatin Analogs

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Introduction: Acromegaly is a rare, serious endocrine disorder characterized by excess growth hormone (GH) secretion by a pituitary adenoma and overproduction of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I).

AIP-mutated acromegaly resistant to first-generation somatostatin analogs: long-term control with pasireotide LAR in two patients

open access: yesEndocrine Connections, 2019
Acromegaly is a rare disease due to chronic excess growth hormone (GH) and IGF-1. Aryl hydrocarbon receptor interacting protein (AIP) mutations are associated with an aggressive, inheritable form of acromegaly that responds poorly to SST2-specific ...

Esophageal Perforation in Zollinger–Ellison Syndrome: A Scoping Review of Management and Outcomes

open access: yesJGH Open, Volume 10, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Esophageal perforation in Zollinger–Ellison syndrome (ZES) is an exceedingly rare and life‐threatening manifestation of gastrinoma‐related acid hypersecretion. While peptic ulceration and severe reflux are recognized complications of ZES, perforation represents the ultimate consequence of uncontrolled hyperacidity. Evidence remains confined to

Somatostatin and dopamine receptors as targets for medical treatment of Cushing's Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Somatostatin (SS) and dopamine (DA) receptors are widely expressed in neuroendocrine tumours that cause Cushing's Syndrome (CS). Increasing knowledge of specific subtype expression within these tumours and the ability to target these receptor subtypes ...
