title: [Phase 3 multicenter clinical study of 111In-DTPA-D-octreotide (MP-1727) in patients with gastrointestinal hormone producing tumors].
abstract: A phase 3 multicenter clinical study was performed to investigate the efficacy, safety and usefulness of MP-1727, a novel tumor imaging agent which binds to somatostatin receptors, in 23 patients with gastrointestinal hormone producing tumor. The efficacy was graded effective or very effective in 16 cases (76.2%) out of 21 cases who could be evaluated. Positive predictive accuracy was 77.8% (7/9) for carcinoids, 100% (5/5) for gastrinomas and 40.0% (2/5) for insulinomas. In three cases, tumor lesions which had been unknown were detected by MP-1727 scintigraphy. The consistent ratio between scintigraphically positive sites and preinjection localizations was 82.0% (41/50 sites) in total. Although adverse drug reactions were observed in two cases, the safety was graded 'not problematic at all' in all of 23 cases. These results show that MP-1727 is a very useful radiopharmaceutical for detection and localization of gastrointestinal hormone producing tumors.
