Introduction: The PAOLA study in patients with inadequately-controlled acromegaly (n=198) demonstrated superior efficacy of pasireotide long-acting release (LAR; 40 mg/60 mg) in biochemical control (GH <2.5 μg/l and normalized IGF-1) vs continued treatment with octreotide LAR 30 mg/lanreotide Autogel 120 mg (15.4% and 20.0% vs 0%). Here we report preliminary data from the extension phase of PAOLA at wk28.Methods: Pasireotide-LAR (40 mg/...

Background: Some patients with acromegaly do not achieve biochemical control despite receiving maximum-approved doses of currently available somatostatin analogues. This 24-week, randomized study assessed the multireceptor-targeted somatostatin analogue pasireotide LAR vs octreotide LAR/lanreotide Autogel in patients with inadequately controlled acromegaly.Methods: Eligible patients: ≥18 years with mean GH levels ≥2.5 μg/l and IGF1 level...
