A 60-year-old woman diagnosed with a well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor metastatic to the liver and lymph nodes was treated with 4 induction cycles and 2 maintenance cycles of (177)Lu [DOTA,(0)Tyr(3)]octreotate (DOTATATE) peptide receptor radionuclide therapy. Her posttreatment imaging showed partial response after 4 induction cycles and complete response after 2 additional maintenance cycles. This case highlights the need for further research into maintenance (177)Lu DOTATATE therapy to improve outcomes in neuroendocrine tumor patients.
一位 60 岁女性被诊断患有分化良好的神经内分泌肿瘤,转移至肝脏和淋巴结,接受了 4 个诱导周期和 2 个维持周期的 (177)Lu [DOTA,(0)Tyr(3)]octreotate(DOTATATE)肽受体放射性核素治疗。她的治疗后影像学检查显示,在 4 个诱导周期后部分缓解,在另外 2 个维持周期后完全缓解。这个病例强调了需要进一步研究维持 (177)Lu DOTATATE 治疗,以改善神经内分泌肿瘤患者的预后。
