Preclinical and clinical studies have indicated that somatostatin receptor (sst)-expressing tumors demonstrate higher uptake of radiolabeled sst antagonists than of sst agonists. In 4 consecutive patients with advanced neuroendocrine tumors, we evaluated whether treatment with (177)Lu-labeled sst antagonists is feasible.
METHODS
After injection of approximately 1 GBq of (177)Lu-DOTA-[Cpa-c(DCys-Aph(Hor)-DAph(Cbm)-Lys-Thr-Cys)-DTyr-NH2] ((177)Lu-DOTA-JR11) and (177)Lu-DOTATATE, 3-dimensional voxel dosimetry analysis based on SPECT/CT was performed. A higher tumor-to-organ dose ratio for (177)Lu-DOTA-JR11 than for (177)Lu-DOTATATE was the prerequisite for treatment with (177)Lu-DOTA-JR11.
RESULTS
Reversible minor adverse effects of (177)Lu-DOTA-JR11 were observed. (177)Lu-DOTA-JR11 showed a 1.7-10.6 times higher tumor dose than (177)Lu-DOTATATE. At the same time, the tumor-to-kidney and tumor-to-bone marrow dose ratio was 1.1-7.2 times higher. All 4 patients were treated with (177)Lu-DOTA-JR11, resulting in partial remission in 2 patients, stable disease in 1 patient, and mixed response in the other patient.
CONCLUSION
Treatment of neuroendocrine tumors with radiolabeled sst antagonists is clinically feasible and may have a significant impact on peptide receptor radionuclide therapy.
