Abstract
Single-dose pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles and multiple-dose PK modeling were compared for long-acting octreotide (20 or 60 mg) and prolonged-release lanreotide (90 or 120 mg) over 91 days; steady-state profiles were simulated. All treatments were well tolerated. Octreotide 20-mg profile showed increased concentration on day 1, lag from days 2 to 6, then prolonged plateau phase (days 11-41); 60-mg PK was dose proportional. Lanreotide 90-mg profile showed C(max) on day 1 then elimination (apparent t1/2 25.5 days); 120-mg profile was underproportional. Steady-state PK of octreotide 20 mg/28 d suggested a C(mean) of 1216 rhog/mL (range, 1065-1585) with low fluctuation index (43%). Steady-state PK of lanreotide 90 mg/28 d suggested a C(mean) of 4455 rhog/mL (range, 2499-9279) with high fluctuation index (152%). Long-acting octreotide had more predictable PK than prolonged-release lanreotide. Simulated steady-state profiles suggest long-acting octreotide could be optimized to meet individual patient needs. In contrast, prolonged-release lanreotide requires exposure constantly above the therapeutic target to enable monthly long-term therapy.

Abstract
AIM Diarrhoea with urgency is a debilitating long-term complication of ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) after a proctocolectomy. Somatostatin analogues are used to control diarrhoea and high-output ostomies. Hence, we designed a prospective, double-blind, crossover trial to explore the efficacy and tolerability of octreotide to reduce diarrhoea in adult patients with IPAA. METHOD Patients were randomized to octreotide subcutaneously (SC), 500 μg three times daily (t.i.d.), or matching placebo SC for 7 days. Responders (a reduction in stool frequency of three or more stools per 24-h period and with a reduction in stool frequency of at least 30% after 7 days of treatment compared with baseline; the primary end-point) remained in the same group and nonresponders could cross over to the alternative treatment for 7 days. Open-label octeotide LAR 30 mg was offered to all responders on day 14. Flexible pouchoscopy with biopsies was performed at baseline in all patients and was repeated on days 7 and 14 in patients with pouchitis. RESULTS Fifteen patients (11 men, median age 52 years), all with ulcerative colitis, were randomized. Three patients were withdrawn for side effects during the blinded phase. Response was achieved by two of 12 and two of 11 patients treated with octreotide or placebo, respectively (including crossover, P = 0.9). The median stool frequency remained stable in both groups [Δoctreotide: 0 (IQR, -4 to 0), Δplacebo: -1 (IQR, -1 to 1), P = 0.45]. Octreotide had no effect on the modified pouch disease activity index (mPDAI), and pouchitis persisted in five of six subjects with pouchitis at onset. One subject received open-label octreotide LAR. CONCLUSION Octreotide has no clear beneficial effect on the stool pattern or on pouchitis severity in patients with high stool frequency after IPAA.

Abstract
Somatostatin analogs (SA) are widely used in acromegaly, either as first-line or adjuvant treatment after surgery. First-line treatment with these drugs is generally used in the patients with macroadenomas or in those with clinical conditions so severe as to prevent unsafe reactions during anesthesia. Generally, the response to SA takes into account both control of GH and IGF-I excess, with consequent improvement of clinical symptoms directly related to GH and IGF-I excess, and tumor shrinkage. This latter effect is more prominent in the patients treated first-line and bearing large macroadenomas, but it is also observed in patients with microadenomas, even with little clinical implication. Predictors of response are patients' gender, age, initial GH and IGF-I levels, and tumor mass, as well as adequate expression of somatostatin receptor types 2 and 5, those with the highest affinity for octreotide and lanreotide. Only sporadic cases of somatostatin receptor gene mutation or impaired signaling pathways have been described in GH-secreting tumors so far. The response to SA also depends on treatment duration and dosage of the drug used, so that a definition of resistance based on short-term treatments using low doses of long-acting SA is limited. Current data suggest that response to these drugs is better analyzed taking together biochemical and tumoral effects because only the absence of both responses might be considered as a poor response or resistance. This latter evidence seems to occur in 25% of treated patients after 12 months of currently available long-acting SA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This supplement represents the proceedings of a panel of investigators whose goal was to assess the quality of evidence pertaining to current therapeutic approaches in the management of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). It will examine the differences in opinions between expert faculty and community physicians. METHODS The Neuroendocrine Tumors Summit convened in December 2009 to address 6 statements prepared by panel members that reflect important questions in the management of NETs. RESULTS Panel members were polled on their acceptance of each statement, and those results were compared with community-based oncologists, gastroenterologists, and endocrinologists. CONCLUSIONS More education regarding the treatment of NETs, including pertinent studies, is needed for physicians. Additional multicenter, prospective, placebo-controlled trials are necessary to demonstrate the benefits of somatostatin analogs, including their ability to control symptoms and affect tumor growth, and their synergistic effect with other therapies. New trials should be reported consistently and include time to tumor progression and progression-free survival as primary or secondary end points.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Somatostatin analogues are the cornerstone in therapy of acromegaly and functioning neuroendocrine tumors. Long-acting retard formulations have improved patient survival and contributed considerably to quality of life. The first such compound was octreotide LAR ('long-acting release'), characterized by high affinity to somatostatin receptor subtypes 2 and 5, which has to be injected intramuscularly every 4 weeks. OBJECTIVE The aim was to screen all octreotide LAR-related literature and assess the compound's profile for safety and tolerability. METHODS An extensive literature search has been performed using the MEDLINE database to retrieve data from clinical studies evaluating the efficacy and tolerability of octreotide LAR. RESULTS/CONCLUSION Octreotide LAR is well tolerated; however, diarrhea and gallstone formation were identified as the main adverse events. Impairment of glucose homeostasis was a regular phenomenon, but its occurrence was unpredictable. General side effects such as headache, abdominal discomfort or fatigue were also reported. According to incidental case reports, administration during pregnancy appears to be safe for both mother and child; however, definitive evidence is missing. In addition, octreotide LAR has been evaluated for further indications including treatment of solid tumor entities, due to its antiproliferative effect. Currently, several compounds (lanreotide, SOM230) with a broader receptor spectrum are under evaluation and may improve treatment efficacy and lower incidence of side effects.

Abstract
Octreotide has dramatically changed the results of medical treatment of acromegaly. It is the reference drug for the pharmacological treatment of acromegaly, owing to its impressive efficacy in suppressing growth hormome secretion, and excellent compliance. Safe growth hormone and normal insulin-like growth factor I values are reached in 50-60% of unselected patients. Octreotide arrests the growth of the tumor and shrinks tumor in over half of all patients (namely, up to 88% of naive patients and to complete disappearance in anecdotic cases). The safety profile of octreotide is excellent, but in some patients, glucose metabolism worsens and cholelythiasis occurs. This review will address the primary treatment and the relative roles of pharmacological and surgical treatment, as well as the predictivity of octreotide results.

Abstract
Human pancreatic adenocarcinomas lose the ability to express sst2, the somatostatin receptor, which mediates the antiproliferative effect of somatostatin. Reintroducing sst2 into human pancreatic cancer cells by stable expression evokes an autocrine negative feedback loop leading to a constitutive activation of the sst2 gene and an inhibition of cell proliferation and tumorigenicity. In vivo studies have been conducted in athymic mice to investigate the antitumor bystander effects resulting from the transfer of the sst2 gene into human pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3. In mixing experiments, a local bystander effect was observed: mixed tumors containing a ratio of sst2-expressing cells to control cells of 25:75, 50:50, and 75:25 grew with a time delay of 31, 44, and 50 days, respectively, when compared with control tumors derived from control cells. Tumors containing 100% sst2-expressing cells remained quiescent for up to 80 days. A significant increase in apoptosis and a decrease in the Ki67 index were detected in mixed and sst2 tumor when compared with control tumors. In combined experiments, mice were separately xenografted with control cells on one flank and with sst2-expressing cells on the other flank. A distant antitumor effect was induced: growth of control tumors was delayed by 33 days, the Ki67 index decreased significantly, and apoptosis increased when compared with control tumors that grew alone. The distant bystander effect may be explained in part by a significant increase in serum somatostatin-like immunoreactivity levels resulting from the autocrine feedback loop produced by sst2-expressing cells and inducing an upregulation of the type 1 somatostatin receptor, sst1, which also mediates the antiproliferative effect of somatostatin. In conclusion, the local and distant antitumor bystander effects obtained in this experimental model suggest that sst2 gene transfer may represent a new therapy for pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
In patients undergoing somatostatin receptor scintigraphy, treatment with octreotide (Sandostatin) is usually discontinued 24-48 h before and after injection with the radioligand 111In-pentetreotide ([111In-DTPA(O)]octreotide) (Octreoscan) because octreotide competes with radioligand for the same receptors. However, Dörr et al. and Soresi et al. reported improved visualization of carcinoid and small cell lung cancer lesions, respectively, during continued octreotide treatment. We found that intravenous administration of unlabeled octreotide to rats inhibited the binding of an optimal dose (0.5 microg) of 111In-pentetreotide to somatostatin receptors in pancreas and adrenals in a mass- and time-dependent way. Pretreatment with unlabeled octreotide never increased receptor binding of 111In-pentetreotide. Administration of 100 microg of octreotide decreased receptor-bound radioactivity if given simultaneously with or 10 or 20 min after injection of the radioligand, but had no effect if given 30 min after the radioligand. These findings indicate rapid processing of receptor-bound octreotide and suggest that octreotide treatment of patients undergoing 111In-pentetreotide scintigraphy may be reinitiated as soon as 1 h after radioligand administration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM The aim of the study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of octreotide in patients with cirrhosis compared to healthy volunteers. METHODS Seventeen patients with cirrhosis and nine normals received an intravenous bolus of octreotide (0.75 microgram/kg), followed by a continuous infusion of 0.75 microgram.kg-1.h-1 for 12 h. Eight patients were decompensated with ascites, while nine were without signs of decompensation. Serum octreotide levels were followed by blood sampling during the infusion period and for 24 h afterwards. RESULTS The average clearance (+/-SEM) was 151 +/- 15 ml/min in normals compared to 102 +/- 9 (p < 0.05) and 105 +/- 9 (p < 0.05) in patients with compensated and decompensated cirrhosis, respectively. The average area under the serum octreotide curve was significantly increased by 53% (p < 0.05) in decompensated and 46% (p < 0.05) in compensated cirrhosis compared to healthy volunteers, while no difference was observed between the groups with cirrhosis. This difference was also reflected by an increased maximum serum concentration during the infusion period of 9797 +/- 580 ng/l in the patients with cirrhosis compared to 7081 +/- 547 ng/l (p = 0.006) in normals. The serum half-life for the beta-phase (T1/2 beta) was 165 +/- 26 min in normals, 200 +/- 21 min in the compensated and 216 +/- 26 min in the decompensated group (NS). The volume of distribution (Vd beta) showed no difference between the three groups. Because of the slow equilibration between plasma and ascitic fluid in decompensated cirrhosis, the calculated clearance may have been overestimated and T1/2 beta and Vd beta underestimated in these patients. CONCLUSIONS The present study demonstrates that the pharmacokinetics of octreotide in cirrhosis is substantially different from that found in normals.

Abstract
Effects of octreotide (1.25 micrograms/kg subcutaneously) on colonic tone and visceral perception were evaluated in 10 IBS patients, using a barostat and compared to placebo in a double-blind crossover study. Colonic sensory thresholds were also studied in healthy controls for comparison with IBS patients. Colonic tone was reflected by variations in volume of the barostat balloon. Baseline volume was 117 +/- 38 ml and was not modified by placebo (122 +/- 40 ml) or octreotide (106 +/- 42 ml). After the meal, maximal decrease in balloon volume was 75 +/- 4% following placebo (P < 0.001) beginning after 9 +/- 3 min and lasting 136 +/- 17 min. Following octreotide, the maximal decrease was 69 +/- 16% (NS vs placebo), after 10 +/- 3 min and lasting 140 +/- 22 min. In the second part, discomfort and pain thresholds were evaluated during isobaric distensions (4 mm Hg increments, 5-min duration, 5-min interval with return to pressure 0 between each). The pressure inducing discomfort was 21.2 +/- 5.9 mm Hg following placebo vs 29.6 +/- 6.6 mm Hg following octreotide (P < 0.01). The pressure inducing pain was 24.8 +/- 7.3 mm Hg following placebo vs 33.2 +/- 7.3 mm Hg following octreotide (P < 0.01). In healthy subjects, discomfort and pain were induced by colonic distensions at a mean intraballoon pressure of 32.7 +/- 5.8 mm Hg and 36.7 +/- 3.9 mm Hg, respectively. Compliance curves were not different following placebo and octreotide. Octreotide significantly increases thresholds for visceral perception in IBS patients without modifying compliance during distension nor colonic tone.
