Abstract
4093 Background: PRRT represents a step change in NET management, significantly improving survival. However, objective response to PRRT, approximately 20%, is poor. There are no predictive biomarkers of response. Uptake on 68 Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging is used to assess patient suitability for PRRT, highlighting the presence of somatostatin receptors (SSTR) to which PRRT selectively binds. We hypothesise that the density of SSTRs, as defined by...
