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).[2]
- Sunitinib (37.5 mg oral once a day) a tyrosin kinase inhibitor has some evidence of symptomatic and biochemical control in somatostatin analogue resistant VIPoma.[3][4] It is also a medical treatment for locally advanced unresectable or advanced metastatic VIPoma.
Medical management of advanced local or metastatic disease
- There has been limited use of chemotherapy in patients with VIPoma. However, streptozocin based chemotherapy is considered best.
- Most successful and favourable combination regimen of chemotherapy is Streptozocin with doxorubicin together with somatostatin analogues. 5-FU can be used as alternative to doxorubicin for concerns of adverse effects but is inferior.[5]
- Molecularly targeted therapy eg. Sunitinib [37.5 mg per day to maximum 50 mg per day] (a tyrosine kinase inhibitor) is approved for treatment of progressive, unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic well differenctiated VIPoma. It is used in combination with somatostatin analogue.[4]
- Other molecular targeted therapy undergoing research for treatment are Everolimus (mTOR inhibitor) and Bevacizumab ( anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody).[6]
