DESCRIPTION:

This phase II trial studies the effect of lutetium Lu-177 dotatate compared to the usual treatment (everolimus) in treating patients with somatostatin receptor positive bronchial neuroendocrine tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). Radioactive drugs, such as lutetium Lu-177 dotatate, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and may reduce harm to normal cells. Lutetium Lu-177 dotatate may be more effective than everolimus in shrinking or stabilizing advanced bronchial neuroendocrine tumors.
