Table. 1.

Frequency of grade 3 or 4 liver function test abnormalities in the safety population by treatment arm (patients randomised to four cycles of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy with 177Lu-Dotatate + octreotide LAR 30 mg or octreotide LAR 60 mg) and baseline liver tumour burden (low [< 25%], moderate [25–50%], or high [> 50%]). Liver tumour burden is calculated according to liver tumour volume divided by total liver volume by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging

Baseline liver tumour burden Treatment No. of Patients Grade 3 or 4 Liver function test abnormalities, no. of patients
