They occur most frequently

SSTRs are overexpressed on a wide range of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) cells and can be targeted using somatostatin analogs. Initially, somatostatin analogs were used not only for treatment of hormone-based symptoms, but also to prevent disease progression (1,2). The first imaging agent to target the SSTR was 111In

Risk Factor Analysis of Lymph Node Metastasis for Rectal Neuroendocrine Tumors: Who Needs a Radical Resection in Rectal Neuroendocrine Tumors Sized 1-2 cm? Rectal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) have malignant potential, and lymph node (LN) or distant metastases can occur; however, treatment of NETs 1-2 cm in size is controversial. This study aimed to identify predictive factors for LN metastasis

Critical updates in neuroendocrine tumors: Version 9 American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system for gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system for all cancer sites, including gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs), is meant to be dynamic, requiring periodic updates to optimize AJCC staging definitions

Immature PIT1-lineage Pituitary Neuroendocrine Tumors/Adenomas, a Morphologically Unique Pituitary Neuroendocrine Tumors/Adenomas Commonly With Cytologic Atypia Features and a Predilection for Aggressive Clinical Potential. Immature PIT1-lineage pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs)/adenomas (Immature PIT1-lineage tumors) are a rare and underrecognized subtype of PitNETs that exhibits

Safety and efficacy of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy in neuroendocrine tumors: A single center experience. Peptide receptor radionucleotide therapy (PRRT) with 177Lu-dotatate is widely used for the treatment of patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). We analyzed data from 104 patients with NETs treated with 177Lu -dotatate at a US academic center between December 2017 and October 2020

Toll-like receptors 1-9 in small bowel neuroendocrine tumors-Clinical significance and prognosis. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are pattern recognition receptors of the innate immunity. TLRs are known to mediate both antitumor effects and tumorigenesis. TLRs are abundant in many cancers, but their expression in small bowel neuroendocrine tumors (SB-NETs) is unknown. We aimed to characterize with worse prognosis. The current research has future perspective, as it can help create base for clinical drug trials to target specific TLRs with agonists or antagonists to treat neuroendocrine tumors.

Phase 3 Trial of Cabozantinib to Treat Advanced Neuroendocrine Tumors. Treatment options for patients with advanced neuroendocrine tumors are limited. The efficacy of cabozantinib in the treatment of previously treated, progressive extrapancreatic or pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors is unclear. We enrolled two independent cohorts of patients - those with extrapancreatic neuroendocrine tumors and those with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors - who had received peptide receptor radionuclide therapy or targeted therapy or both. Patients were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive cabozantinib at a dose of 60 mg daily or placebo. The primary end point was progression-free survival as assessed by blinded independent central review. Key secondary end points included objective response, overall

Ampullary composite gangliocytoma/neuroma and neuroendocrine tumor management. Ampullary composite gangliocytoma/neuroma and neuroendocrine tumor (CoGNET), previously called ampullary gangliocytic paragangliomas (GP) are a rare entity, with only few reported cases in the literature. This is a multicentric retrospective cohort of patients treated with endoscopy or surgery for ampullary CoGNET

A Reassessment of the Clinical Utility of (68)Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT in Patients With Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors. Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) are a rare and biologically diverse group of tumors that are challenging to image. Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT is the most sensitive imaging tool for these tumors, and while its use has increased over time, its clinical

Impact of sex hormones on pheochromocytomas, paragangliomas, and gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. The effects of sex hormones remain largely unexplored in pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) and gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs). We evaluated the effects of estradiol, progesterone, Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), and testosterone on human

Factors associated with grade progression in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Grade progression of well differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (panNETs) can occur over time, with G1/2 to G3 the most clinically relevant form. Here we conducted a retrospective cohort study of 66 patients with initially G1/2 panNET (median initial Ki67, 4.6%). Patients were followed for a median 6.8 years
