Overview

Trade Name(s):
Onalta and Octreother
NCI Definition [1]:
A radioconjugate consisting of the octreotide derivative edotreotide labeled with yttrium 90 (Y-90) with potential radiotherapeutic uses. Similar to octreotide, yttrium Y 90-edotreotide binds to somatostatin receptors (SSTRs), especially type 2 receptors, present on the cell membranes of many types of neuroendocrine tumor cells, delivering tissue-specific, beta-emitting nuclide Y-90-mediated cytotoxicity to SSTR-positive cells. Yttrium Y 90-edotreotide is produced by substituting tyrosine for phenylalanine at the 3 position of the somatostatin analogue octreotide and chelating the substituted octreotide to Y-90 via dodecanetetraacetic acid (DOTA).

Yttrium y 90-edotreotide has been investigated in 1 clinical trial, of which 1 is open and 0 are closed. Of the trial investigating yttrium y 90-edotreotide, 1 is early phase 1 (1 open).

SSTR1 Expression, SSTR2 Expression, and SSTR3 Expression are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for yttrium y 90-edotreotide clinical trials.

Neuroendocrine tumor is the most common disease being investigated in yttrium y 90-edotreotide clinical trials [2].
