Background

Edotreotide gallium Ga-68 is an 8 amino acid peptide bound to the chelator 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA). Edotreotide gallium Ga-68 is indicated for localizing somatostatin receptor positive neuroendocrine tumors by positron emission tomography. Dotatate gallium Ga-68 is used for a similar indication. Dotatate gallium Ga-68 has lower tumor uptake but this data is highly variable between patients.

Edotreotide gallium Ga-68 was granted FDA approval on 21 August 2019.

Indication

Edotreotide gallium Ga-68 is a radioactive diagnostic compound used in positron emission tomography (PET) for diagnose somatostatin receptor positive neuroendocrine tumors in pediatrics and adults.
