Real-World Study of Lanreotide Autogel in Routine Practice in Patients with Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (GEP-NETs) in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

There is a lack of data on the efficacy, effectiveness, and safety of lanreotide autogel in patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) of Chinese ethnicity. This noninterventional, retrospective study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of lanreotide autogel in patients of Chinese ethnicity with GEP-NETs in clinical practice.

Methods

Patients' charts were abstracted from five hospitals in Hong Kong and Taiwan (July-September 2021), where lanreotide autogel is approved for treating GEP-NETs. Included patients were adults with unresectable, metastatic, or locally advanced GEP-NETs who received a first injection (index) of lanreotide autogel 120 mg between 01 January 2017 and 30 June 2020 (planned sample size: N = 30).
