Name Time Method Main Objective: To assess the efficacy of lanreotide 120 mg for the relief of clinical symptoms due to malignant bowel obstruction in inoperable patients.;Secondary Objective: To assess the efficacy of lanreotide 120 mg in terms of:<br> - Number of daily vomiting episodes recorded on diary cards or measurement of the daily drainage by nasoogastric tube (NGT),<br> - Number of days without vomiting episodes, <br> - Number of daily nausea episodes recorded on diary cards,<br> - Intensity of abdominal pain assessed on a visual analogue scale,<br> - Well-being assessed on a visual analogue scale,<br> - Time between first injection (inclusion) and clinical response,<br>To assess the clinical and biological safety of the treatment<br>;Primary end point(s): Relief of clinical symptoms due to malignant bowel obstruction in inoperable patients: percentage of responder patients 7 and 14 days after one administration of lanreotide 120 mg.
