Octreotide is used for the treatment of growth hormone producing tumors (acromegaly and gigantism), when surgery is contraindicated, pituitary tumors that secrete thyroid-stimulating hormone (thyrotropinoma), [citation needed] diarrhea and flushing episodes associated with carcinoid syndrome, and diarrhea in people with vasoactive intestinal peptide-secreting tumors ().
An octreotide scan is a type of SPECT scintigraphy used to find carcinoid, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and to localize sarcoidosis. It is also called somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS). Octreotide , a drug similar to somatostatin , is radiolabeled with indium-111 , [ 1 ] and is injected into a vein and travels through the bloodstream.
Octreotate or octreotide acid is a somatostatin analogue that is closely related to octreotide. Its amino acid sequence is H-D-Phe-Cys-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr-Cys-Thr-OH

The natural somatostatin receptor ligand, the 14 amino acid peptide somatostatin (A), was abridged to the biologically more stable 8 amino acid peptide Octreotide (OC, B). Introduction of a tyrosine into the 3rd position of the Octreotide sequence resulted in Tyr3-Octreotide (TOC, C), which allows for iodination of the tyrosine residue with the ...
Participants were randomly assigned to receive either 177 Lu dotatate with long-acting octreotide or long-acting octreotide, at a higher dose, alone. [15] 177 Lu dotatate was injected through the vein and long-acting octreotide was injected in the muscle. [15] Both, participants and health care providers knew which treatment was given. [15]

Edotreotide (USAN, also known as (DOTA 0-Phe 1-Tyr 3) octreotide, DOTA-TOC, DOTATOC) is a substance which, when bound to various radionuclides, is used in the treatment and diagnosis of certain types of cancer. [3] When used therapeutically it is an example of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy.
