177lu-dota-eb-tate in adult patients with advanced, well- differentiated neuroendocrine tumors

Conditions: Neuroendocrine Tumors

Summary: this is a phase i clinical trial to assess the safety and dosimetry profiles of 177lu-dota-eb-tate in patients with advanced, metastatic or inoperable, somatostatin receptor-positive, well-differentiated gep-nets.
