68Ga-DOTATATE Imaging in Neuroendocrine Tumors
To evaluate 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT for staging of patients with carcinoid, neuroendocrine
tumors, medullary thyroid cancer and other cancers expressing somatostatin receptors.
tumors, medullary thyroid cancer and other cancers expressing somatostatin receptors.
This is an expanded access study with a total of 300 participants with NET and suspected
SSTR positive tumors. Eligible participants will undergo baseline assessments at enrollment.
Study participants will receive 68Ga-DOTATATE and will undergo a PET/CT imaging study. All
patients referred by Oncologists will be screened by a UCLA Nuclear Medicine physician and
then accepted for scanning if clinically appropriate.
