Meccanismo d'azione

Lanreotid

Lanreotide activates somatostatin receptors (chiefly SSTR2, additionally SSTR5), thereby suppressing the release of growth hormone, IGF-1 and various gastrointestinal and neuroendocrine hormones. It is metabolically far more stable than natural somatostatin.

Nafarelin

Nafarelin is a potent GnRH agonist: after an initial stimulation ('flare'), continuous receptor occupancy leads to downregulation and thereby suppression of LH, FSH and the downstream sex hormones.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Lanreotid and Nafarelin?: Lanreotid is classified as "Ricerca (altro)", while Nafarelin is classified as "Ricerca (altro)". Lanreotid: Lanreotide is a synthetic cyclic octapeptide analog of somatostatin. It binds preferentially to the somatostatin receptors SSTR2 and SSTR5 and is approved for treating acromegaly and certain neuroendocrine tumours. Nafarelin: Nafarelin is a GnRH agonist and the only member of this class delivered as a nasal spray. It is approved for treating endometriosis and central precocious puberty. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
Which peptide is better supported by science, Lanreotid or Nafarelin?: The highest available evidence level is "RCT sull'uomo" for Lanreotid and "RCT sull'uomo" for Nafarelin. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
What is the legal status of Lanreotid and Nafarelin in Germany and the United States?: Germania: Lanreotid — Su prescrizione, Nafarelin — Su prescrizione. Stati Uniti: Lanreotid — Su prescrizione, Nafarelin — Su prescrizione. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
