177Lu-DOTATATE radionuclide therapy for pediatric patients with relapsed high-risk neuroblastoma negative on 131I-MIBG imaging - a pilot study
Conclusions: 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT has superior detection sensitivity compared with 131I-MIBG in pediatric patients with relapsed advanced neuroblastoma, and 177Lu-DOTATATE therapy is effective and safe. Further extension of this pilot study to a larger cohort may be considered.
