Overview of Radiolabeled Somatostatin Analogs for Cancer Imaging and Therapy [PDF]
Identified in 1973, somatostatin (SST) is a cyclic hormone peptide with a short biological half-life. Somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) are widely expressed in the whole body, with five subtypes described. The interaction between SST and its receptors leads

225Ac-Labeled Somatostatin Analogs in the Management of Neuroendocrine Tumors: From Radiochemistry to Clinic [PDF]
The widespread use of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) represents a major therapeutic breakthrough in nuclear medicine, particularly since the introduction of 177Lu-radiolabeled somatostatin analogs. These radiopharmaceuticals have especially

Somatostatin analogs: Clinical application in relation to human somatostatin receptor subtypes [PDF]
Radiolabeled octreotide analogs are most successfully being applied today in clinical cancer imaging and treatment. Propagation of this paradigm to other radiopeptide families has been greatly hampered by the inherent poor metabolic stability of ...

Background Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is an aggressive neuroendocrine skin tumor. Currently, 18F-fluoro-deoxy-glucose (18F-FDG) PET/CT is the functional imaging modality of choice. Few data are available on the use of 68Ga-somatostatin analogs.

A case of malignant insulinoma responsive to somatostatin analogs treatment [PDF]
Background Insulinoma is a rare tumour representing 1–2% of all pancreatic neoplasms and it is malignant in only 10% of cases. Locoregional invasion or metastases define malignancy, whereas the dimension (> 2 cm), CK19 status, the tumor staging and ...

Radiolabeled Somatostatin Analogs-A Continuously Evolving Class of Radiopharmaceuticals. [PDF]
Simple Summary Somatostatin receptors (SSTs) are of particular interest in oncology because these proteins are overexpressed on the cell membranes of different human malignancies, especially neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) and neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs)
