Any idea what cancer she had and what treatment? My mom is currently battling stage 4 metastatic neuroendocrine primary lung cancer atypical carcinoid and being treated with Lutathera, a nuclear injection that targets the somatostatin receptor on the cancer cells and hopefully shrinks, slows, or kills them off. The treatment is 1 injection every 2 months over the course of 8 months. So 4 total injections. She has already been through 4 rounds of chemotherapy and targeted radiation. She has many tumors at this point but the largest sounded similar to your moms, upper left lung, the size of a golf ball. Partially collapsed her left lung. She's being treated at Sloan Kettering in NYC.
