Uses
Ilatreotide (SDZ CO61), glycated somatostatin derivative, is a highly potent glycated analog of somatostatin with improved oral activity. Ilatreotide can suppress the fasting level and postprandial release of several gastrointestinal and pancreatic hormones. Ilatreotide can be used for the research of gastroenteropancreatic tumors[1][2][3].
