Dr. Heloisa Soares Discusses ComPareNET: Lu-177 DOTATATE vs CAPTEM

DESCRIPTION:

This phase II trial compares capecitabine and temozolomide to lutetium Lu-177 dotatate for the treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors that have spread to other parts of the body (advanced) or are not able to be removed by surgery (unresectable). Chemotherapy drugs, such as capecitabine and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radioactive drugs, such as lutetium Lu-177 dotatate, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and may reduce harm to normal cells. The purpose of this study is to find out whether capecitabine and temozolomide or lutetium Lu-177 dotatate may kill more tumor cells in patients with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
