Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) relies on α- and β-emitting radionuclides bound to a peptide that commonly targets somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) for the localized killing of tumors through ionizing radiation.

Thymic Neuroendocrine Tumor Presenting With Cervical Lymphadenopathy: A Case Report and Diagnostic Challenge. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Thymic neuroendocrine tumors are rare and may initially present with isolated cervical lymphadenopathy. Early recognition and a multidisciplinary diagnostic approach are crucial for timely identification, accurate localization, and curative resection.

The association of intra-therapeutic heterogeneity of somatostatin receptor expression with morphological treatment response in patients undergoing PRRT with [177Lu]-DOTATATE [PDF]
AIM: Purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of the spatial heterogeneity (asphericity, ASP) in intra-therapeutic SPECT/ CT imaging of somatostatin receptor (SSR) positive metastatic gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP ...

Background Early [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TOC PET/CT imaging after peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) in neuroendocrine neoplasm patients is often used as a prognosticator for survival, but lacks validity.

[111In-DTPA]octreotide tumor uptake in GEPNET liver metastases after intra-arterial administration: An overview of preclinical and clinical observations and implications for tumor radiation dose after peptide radionuclide therapy [PDF]
Aims: With the aim to improve peptide receptor radionuclide therapy effects in patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (GEPNET) liver metastases we explored the effect of intra-arterial (IA) administration of [111In-DTPA]octreotide ...

IntroductionNeuroendocrine neoplasms including neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are often diagnosed as primary disseminated or inoperable. In those cases, systemic extensive therapy is necessary, but radical treatment is unlikely.

IntroductionPrimary cardiac paragangliomas are rare tumors. Metastatic disease is even rarer. Surgical management is technically challenging, and sometimes even impossible.

Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is a relatively new mode of internally targeted radiotherapy currently in clinical trials. In PRRT, ionizing radioisotopes conjugated to somatostatin analogues are targeted to neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) via ...

Background. Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) prevalence increases with age. Elderly (>70 years) healthy individuals have a 10% incidence of CH. Cancer cohorts are at increased risk of harboring CH mutations (~25%). Specific tumor types such as thyroid, ovarian, and bladder, have previously been shown to be at the highest risk of CH due to increased ...
