177Lu-DOTA Therapy (200 mCi) for Patients from Defence Colony – Visit Our Green Park Centre

If you are based in Defence Colony and looking for advanced targeted cancer treatment, 177Lu-DOTA Therapy (200 mCi) is available at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy. Located just a short drive away, our Green Park centre offers convenient access to world-class nuclear medicine therapy for patients across South Delhi.

What is 177Lu-DOTA Therapy (200 mCi)?

177Lu-DOTA therapy is a radionuclide treatment technology that is precision-based and aimed at certain types of cancers (particularly neuroendocrine tumors (NETs)). It involves Lutetium-177 with an attached targeting molecule that attaches to the tumor cells.

A greater dose of 200 mCi is usually employed in early or progressive cases, and a greater response is needed from the therapy. When taken, the radioactive substance is selective and binds to the cancer cells and irradiates them specifically, assisting in killing them and leaving out most of the healthy tissues.

Who Should Consider This Therapy?

Patients can be referred for this treatment in case they have:

• euroendocrine tumours (NETs, advanced).

• Metastatic/progressive disease.

• Somasatostatin receptor-positive tumors.

• Poor response to traditional therapies.

  
  

The therapy is usually prescribed in situations that require a more focused and efficient treatment method.

We uphold high-quality standards, safety, and hygiene standards for all patients with NABL and NABH accreditation standards.

What to Expect During the Procedure?

The treatment is done intravenously under professional oversight. The infusion of radioactive drug is a slow process, which enables it to circulate and attach to tumor cells.

The whole session could be several hours with preparation and time to observe. Because it is a stronger dose (200 mCi), the process is carried out in a controlled setting, and it is imperative that one checks its safety.

It can take several courses depending on the situation and reaction of the patient to treatment.

Safety and Post-Therapy Guidelines

The overall tolerance of 177Lu-DOTA therapy is quite high, and even in more significant doses, there are a few precautions that patients have to adhere to upon therapy.

These can involve keeping a safe distance from other individuals, having water, and observing hygiene measures to minimize radiation. Our health and care team elaborates on accurate instructions for the treatment plan of every patient.

Follow-ups should be done regularly to measure response and be able to achieve the best results.
