First results and experience with PRRT in South Africa
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are a diverse group of tumors that often present late due to nonspecific symptoms. These tumors frequently express somatostatin receptors (SSRs), which allows for positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT ...

A case report of enduring benefit of sequential PRRT in malignant insulinoma [PDF]
We report the case of a 62-year-old woman diagnosed in 2015 with de novo metastatic malignant insulinoma. She presented severe hypoglycemia and was initially treated with somatostatin analogs, chemotherapy (capecitabine-temozolomide), and diazoxide, but ...

Molecular Deconvolution of Circulating "Other Cells": A Reliable Predictive Marker of Therapy Response and Survival in Neuroendocrine Tumor Patients Receiving <sup>177</sup>Lu-DOTATATE PRRT. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Purpose To assess the prognostic impact of pre‐treatment circulating other cells on treatment response and survival in neuroendocrine tumor (NET) patients receiving Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) with 177Lu‐DOTATATE. Methods Healthy donors (HDs, n = 81) and NET patients (n = 137) were analyzed.

Clinical Experience with Targeted Alpha-Emitter Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (α-PRRT) for Somatostatin Receptor-Positive Neuroendocrine Tumors [PDF]
Background: α-emitting Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (α-PRRT) is emerging as a promising new generation of PRRT for neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), providing enhanced tumor cell cytotoxicity and reduced irradiation of adjacent healthy tissues due ...

Application of FLIC model to predict adverse events onset in neuroendocrine tumors treated with PRRT [PDF]
To develop predictive models of side effect occurrence in GEPNET treated with PRRT. Metastatic GEPNETs patients treated in our centre with PRRT (177Lu-Oxodotreotide) from 2019 to 2020 were considered.

Nephrotoxicity after PRRT with 177Lu-DOTA-octreotate [PDF]
After peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT), renal toxicity may occur, particular in PRRT with (90)Y-labelled somatostatin analogues. Risk factors have been identified for increased probability of developing renal toxicity after PRRT, including hypertension, diabetes and age.

Responses to medical treatment in patients with metastatic unresectable small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors - A single center study of 378 patients. [PDF]
Abstract Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (siNET) are rare malignancies, often diagnosed at advanced stages with metastatic spread. While surgery is the only curative treatment, medical therapies, including somatostatin analogues (SSA), peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT), and other systemic treatments, are essential for disease ...
