New treatment option for Neuroendocrine Tumor
Official title Intra-arterial Hepatic (IAH) Infusion of Radiolabelled Somatostatin Analogs in GEP-NET Patients With Dominant Liver Metastases
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04837885
What this study is testing
What is LUTATHERA® by intra-arterial hepatic (IAH) injection?
LUTATHERA® by intra-arterial hepatic (IAH) injection is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for neuroendocrine tumor.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The management of liver metastases in neuroendocrine neoplasms is challenging. Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs (SSA) is one of the most promising therapeutic options.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
