ClinConnect Summary

This is a randomized phase II non-comparative study. Patients with GEP-NET G1-G2 with progressive disease, somatostatin receptor (SSR) positive and FDG negative will be enrolled in the study and will be randomly assigned to 2 different dosages (total activity of 25.9 GBq and total activity of 18.5 GBq). The two levels of dosages are:

1. Total activity of 25.9 GBq 100 mCi for 7 cycles at 6 ± 2 weeks (700 mCi)
2. Total activity of 18.5 GBq 100 mCi for 5 cycles at 6 ± 2 weeks (500 mCi) The randomized study design allows for two active treatments to be evaluated in a comparable patient populat...
