Coping with gastrointestinal and lung cancer without chemotherapy. Specialists at the Tel Aviv Sourasky Clinic (Ichilov) use an ultra-modern innovative method to combat neuroendocrine tumors. It is based on radionuclide therapy with the radioisotope Lutetium 177 (Lutetium-177). This innovation is a real breakthrough in oncotherapy, because in recent decades the number of cases of this type of cancer has been rapidly growing.

This method is completely new in the world. Today it exists only in Israel, Germany and Sweden.

Its essence is in the use of a new radiopharmaceutical - Lutetium 177 PRRT. The drug is administered intravenously at intervals of 7-8 weeks. With the help of Lutetium, cancer cells are destroyed selectively, without affecting healthy tissues of the body. That is, this method of treatment can literally be called "local radiation therapy". In addition, the drug does not have a toxic effect on the bone marrow and kidneys, destroying the tumor from the inside.

In addition, the use of this method allows patients to avoid severe side effects of chemotherapy, such as vomiting, nausea, pain, alopecia, weakness. It is also important that the treatment is carried out by a special group of medical specialists. Among them: leading doctors, nurses and medical physicists!

All of them work under the supervision of Dr. Inna Ospovat, a leading specialist in the nuclear therapy department at the Ichilov Clinic.
