Long-term tolerability of PRRT in 807 patients with neuroendocrine tumours: the value and limitations of clinical factors

Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) with 90Y and 177Lu provides objective responses in neuroendocrine tumours, and is well tolerated with moderate toxicity. We aimed to identify clinical parameters predictive of long-term renal and haematological toxicity (myelodysplastic syndrome and acute leukaemia). Of 807 patients studied at IEO-Milan (1997–2013), 793 (98 %) received 177Lu (278, 34.4 %), 90Y (358, 44.4 %) or 177Lu and 90Y combined...
