      Study results presented at the 2021 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium revealed that investigators observed a meaningful disease control rate among patients with well-differentiated, high-grade neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) who were treated with 177Lu-DOTATATE (Lutathera).

      In an interview with CancerNetwork®, Kelley Lauren Coffman, MD, a hospitalist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, explained what she believes is the greatest takeaway from the study findings.

      Transcription:
      The biggest takeaway point that I emphasized in my presentation at [the meeting] and I’ll emphasize now is that this treatment looks to have a meaningful benefit in these higher-grade, more advanced [NETs]. We observed about a 69% disease control rate in this population, which I think is very encouraging.
