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.
Pasireotid
Pasireotide binds more broadly than older somatostatin analogs (SSTR1/2/3/5) with particularly high affinity for SSTR5. This suppresses, among others, ACTH release in Cushing's disease and GH release in acromegaly.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between Lanreotid and Pasireotid?
- Lanreotid is classified as "Ricerca (altro)", while Pasireotid 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. Pasireotid: Pasireotide is a multireceptor somatostatin analog binding to four of the five somatostatin receptors (especially SSTR5). It is approved for Cushing's disease and acromegaly. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, Lanreotid or Pasireotid?
- The highest available evidence level is "RCT sull'uomo" for Lanreotid and "RCT sull'uomo" for Pasireotid. 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 Pasireotid in Germany and the United States?
- Germania: Lanreotid — Su prescrizione, Pasireotid — Su prescrizione. Stati Uniti: Lanreotid — Su prescrizione, Pasireotid — Su prescrizione. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
