Recruiting PHASE1, PHASE2 Somatostatin Receptor Positive

New treatment option for Somatostatin Receptor Positive

Official title Somatostatin-Receptors (SSTR)-Agonist [212Pb]VMT-alpha-NET in Metastatic or Inoperable SSTR+ Gastrointestinal Neuroendocrine Tumor and Pheochromocytoma/Paraganglioma Previously Treated With Systemic Targeted Radioligand Therapy

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06427798

What this study is testing

What is 68Ga-DOTATATE?

68Ga-DOTATATE is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for somatostatin receptor positive.

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
Background: Gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors (GI NET) are a type of cancer that affects the stomach and intestines; pheochromocytoma/paragangliomas (PPGL) are tumors that grow in or near the adrenal glands. Both of these types of tumor have high levels of a protein called somatostatin receptors (SSTR) on their surfaces.
  • 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.
