Inclusion Criteria

1) Subjects of both gender, aged =18 years AND = 75 years 2) patients with histological diagnosis of WD NETs, defined according to the recent WHO classification for gastroentero pancreatic (WHO 2010), bronchial and thymic NET(WHO 2004) or with hepatic metastases documented through a bioptic exam and Occult Primary tumor; patient with or without carcinoid syndrome could be enrolled; 3) Patients on treatment with standard dosages of octreotide LAR (30 mg/28 days) or lanreotide Autogel (120 mg/28 days) in the 6 months before enrollment; 4) Patients with tumor/biochemical/ symptomatic disease progression 5) Urine negative pregnancy test for women of childbearing age. Female subjects of childbearing potential must be using an appropriate method of contraception like double-barrier contraception , oral estroprogestinic contraceptive or an intrauterine device (IUD). Patient must be willing to continue using it throughout the entire study period, until two month after the study end; if the patient is a man, if the partner is a childbearing potential female, he should agree to using appropriate method of contraception;

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: The primary study objective is to evaluate the safety of lanreotide 90 mg in double dose (lanreotide 180 mg) every 28 days in patients affected by well differentiated neuroendocrine tumours (WD NETs) with disease progression during standard treatment with SSA (lanreotide 120mg ooctreotide 30mg every 28 days).;Secondary Objective: Secondary study Objectives are efficacy evaluations through tumor, clinical and laboratory parameters.;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint for safety evaluation, is the patient proportion that has at least a serious adverse event during treatment with lanreotide.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At each visit
