Journal: Effective Control of Pancreatitis-Related Gastric Varices Through Splenic Artery Embolization: A Case Report. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 17, 2024 The patient initially received medical management with IV sandostatin for bleeding control, and a splenectomy was planned as the definitive management...Splenic artery embolization led to a successful reduction in gastric variceal size and no recurrence of bleeding. This case report presents a case of pancreatitis-induced splenic vein thrombosis (PISVT) and highlights splenic artery embolization as a viable management strategy in such cases.

Preclinical, Journal: Optimization and validation of the liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry method for assessing octreotide release from microspheres during inflammation in rabbit models. (Pubmed Central) - Dec 13, 2022 To study the effect of acute-phase reaction (APR) of inflammation on the release of octreotide acetate microsphere (Sandostatin®, SLAR) at a clinical dose, a more sensitive liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry analysis method needs to be developed because of the low plasma concentrations of octreotide...The coefficients of variations for intraday and interday precision were less than 4.4 %, and the relative error of accuracy was within 5.7 %. The validated method was successfully applied to pharmacokinetics studies of SLAR in a seven-day inflammation model of rabbits, indicating that the APR did not affected the release and pharmacokinetics of the octreotide microspheres.

The Role of 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT in the Management of Gastrointestinal and Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors () - Nov 8, 2022 - Abstract #NANETS2022NANETS_190; Of these, 27 patients had a change in medical management with 26 patients starting systemic therapy such as PRRT, chemotherapy or sandostatin and 1 patient being down-staged and taken off sandostatin, 9 patients had a change in surgical management with 7 patients undergoing a surgical resection due to primary or metastatic lesion detection and 2 patients having cancellation of planned primary tumor resection...CONCLUSIONS Our retrospective study demonstrates that 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT resulted in a change in therapeutic management in 36.2% of patients with GI or pancreatic NET and improved lesion detection over conventional imaging in 48.4% of patients. This supports its use in the care of patients with GI and pancreatic NETs

Journal: Minimizing the initial burst of octreotide acetate based long-acting microspheres by the solvent evaporation method. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 18, 2022 Sandostatin long-acting release (SLAR) depot for 1-month controlled release of octreotide is a somatostatin analogue product that has been used extensively in the pharmacological treatment of acromegaly...Analysis of kinetics of dry Tg of the formulations reflected (a) the elevated residual solvent in SLAR and was not duplicated in the solvent evaporation formulations, and (b) the slightly higher Tg of peptide loaded formulations relative to than blank microspheres, consistent with the interaction of the acetate salt of octreotide with linear PLGA chains in the PLGA-glu. These data indicate that it is possible to prepare peptide loaded microspheres by the solvent evaporation method with extraordinarily similar performance to microspheres, such as those in SLAR, that are prepared by the low-burst release coacervation method.

Journal: Development and characterization of composition-equivalent formulations to the Sandostatin LAR® by the solvent evaporation method. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 9, 2022 Key formulation steps identified to maximize microsphere yield and minimize residual solvent and initial burst release included (a) addition of acetic acid to the peptide before preparation and (b) annealing the microspheres under vacuum after drying. Controlled release octreotide formulations prepared and investigated in this study could provide a better understanding of the effect of production variables on release performance and supply information useful for making progress in manufacturing of SLAR generic equivalents.

(Pubmed Central) - May 28, 2021 The patient eventually progressed on sandostatin and although consideration was given to adding an angiogenesis inhibitor to her regimen, her disease progression involved non-liver metastases which had not been characterized. Although in this specific case comparative scRNA-seq did not alter treatment, its potential to help guide therapy of metastatic disease was clearly demonstrated.

Further description of the biological and histopathological characteristics of carcinoid tumors is needed for implementation of early detection techniques.

Our case highlights that ectopic GHRH secretion is a rare but important cause of acromegaly, which should always be suspected when a clear pituitary cause is not identified.
