#2978 Policy Barriers to Increasing Access to Radioligand Therapy for Neuroendocrine Cancers

Introduction: Radioligand therapy is a relatively new treatment approach used in a small number of neuroendocrine cancers and has been shown to improve overall survival and quality of life. Yet because it uses radioactivity, there are particular barriers to its greater integration into cancer care. As neuroendocrine cancers are rare, it is all the more urgent that these barriers be understood and overcome so that this treatment modality can become available to all patients who may benefit.

#1801 Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) with a Somatostatin Receptor (SSTR) Antagonist in Patients with SSTR-Positive, Progressive Neuroendocrine Tumours (NETs): A Phase I/II Open-Label Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of 177Lu-O

Introduction: PRRT with radiolabelled SSTR agonists is highly effective and has become an integral part of NET treatment. Tumour uptake and tumour-to-tissue dose ratios may be higher with radiolabelled SSTR antagonists than agonists. DOTA-JR11 (OPS201) is a very promising next-generation SSTR2-selective antagonist.
