| Type: | small molecule |
| DrugBank ID: | DB06791 |
| DrugBank Description: | Lanreotide is a drug employed in the management of acromegaly (a hormonal condition caused by excess growth hormone) in addition to symptoms caused by neuroendocrine tumors, especially carcinoid syndrome. This drug is a long-acting analog of the drug somatostatin, a growth hormone inhibitor. Lanreotide is manufactured by the company, _Ipsen Pharmaceuticals_ as lanreotide acetate, and marketed as _Somatuline_. It is approved in several countries worldwide, including the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada. Lanreotide was first approved for use in the United States by the FDA on August 30, 2007. |

| DrugBank Targets: | Somatostatin receptor type 2; Somatostatin receptor type 5 |
| DrugBank MoA: | Lanreotide is a somatostatin analogue (SSA) and has mainly inhibitory effects which are mediated via somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) 2 and 5 and include inhibition of growth hormone release in the brain. Tumor SSTR activation induces downstream cell cycle arrest and/or apoptosis, and also results in blunted production of substances that support tumor growth as well as tumor angiogenesis. This leads to the anti-proliferative effects of Lanreotide. (3) |
| DrugBank Pharmacology: | Lanreotide exhibits antisecretory effects through cAMP suppression, and activation of ion currents such as K+ and Ca2+ which leads to hyperpolarization of the membrane and inhibition of Ca2+ mediated depolarization. Furthermore, through direct and indirect mechanisms, Lanreotide has potent antiproliferative effects. (2) |
| DrugBank Indication: | Lanreotide is a somatostatin analog approved for treatment of neuroendocrine tumours and acromegaly. (2) |
