I was diagnosed with Metastatic P-NET VIPoma in 2019. I had surgery to remove a part of my pancreas & liver, as well as gall bladder & spleen. Numerous lesions still remain in the liver. I had the option of Octreotide or Lanreotide, and opted for Lanreotide after researching.
Injection every 4 weeks indefinitely. I have seen good results so far...3 years and no new tumors ór growth of existing tumors. No significant side effects.

Hello @lbaron54915 and welcome to Mayo Connect. I am glad to hear that you have had such good results with Lanreotide injections.

If you care to share more, what symptoms have been relieved by the Lanreotide injections?
