Overview
Initial treatment in patient with VIPoma is prompt replacement of fluid and correction of electrolyte imbalance and acid-base disturbance.[1]
Medical Therapy
Symptomatic treatment:
- Initial treatment in patient with VIPoma is prompt replacement of fluid and electrolyte losses. The IV fluid of choice is isotonic normal saline with added potassium and bicarbonate as necessary.
- Somatostatin analogues like short acting octreotide (50-100mcg every 8 hours) are useful for controlling diarrhea by blocking the release of VIP. Octreotide is later replaced by longer acting depot preparation of somatostatin analogues like sandostatin (20 mg IM every 4 weeks) and Lanreotide (120mg subQ every 4 weeks)
- Steroids are used in diarrhea of VIPoma refractory to somatostatin (prednisone 60 mg per day).
- Sunitinib a tyrosin kinase inhibitor has some evidence of symptomatic and biochemical control in somatostatin analogue resistant VIPoma.[2]
- Prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors (e.g., indomethacin), phenothiazines, and lithium combination may be used.
- Long-term octreotide treatment not only controls the diarrhea in the patients with VIPoma but also may cause arrest or regression of the tumor.
