Real-World Observational Study of Somatostatin Analogs and Rescue Medication Usage for Neuroendocrine Tumors in Canada
Switching between long-acting SSAs can reduce the need for breakthrough medications and lower the incidence of AMRD prescriptions, with a more pronounced effect observed when switching from OCT-LAR to LAN-ATG. These findings have potential implications for improving quality of life and reducing treatment costs for NET patients, which should be evaluated in a formal health economic analysis.
