Read the transcript

This trial is for adults aged 18–100 with progressive, inoperable pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma, positive somatostatin-receptor imaging, and either SDHx mutations or no known susceptibility mutation. Standard first-line therapy must be unsuitable or declined.

The idea: Lu-177-DOTATATE targets somatostatin receptors to deliver DNA-damaging radiation. Patients receive four intravenous treatments about eight weeks apart, with amino acids for kidney protection.

This phase 2 study plans 130 patients. Frank Lin leads the NCI-sponsored study at the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, the sole recruiting US site.
