#3787 PRESTO 3 – An international, simulated-use study to assess nurses’ preferences between two lanreotide injection syringes (Somatuline Autogel vs Pharmathen) for patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) and/or acromegaly

Introduction: Somatostatin analogues (SSAs) are often used to treat patients with NETs and acromegaly. The Pharmathen syringe is now available in Europe and the USA for depot injection. It is important for decision making when using SSAs that there is confidence in and ease of use with any syringe.
