  1. Learning Objectives • After completing this activity, participants should be able to: • Outline patient signs and symptoms that should lead to an evaluation for NETs • Describe the diagnostic work-up that can confirm a suspected diagnosis of NET • Review current treatment approaches for NETs and expected patient outcomes • Analyze recent clinical trial data demonstrating improved outcomes beyond symptom control in patients with advanced NETs NET = neuroendocrine tumor

  2. NETs: A Not-So-Rare Disease Epidemiology Signs and symptoms of NETs

  3. Incidence of NETs Increasing 6.00 600 All malignant neoplasms 5.00 500 4.00 400 Incidence per 100,000 – All malignant neoplasms Incidence per 100,000 - NETs 3.00 300 2.00 200 1.00 100 Neuroendocrine tumors 0.00 0 1982 1983 1984 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1973 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 Yao JC et al.

  4. NETs Are Second Most Prevalent Gastrointestinal Tumor NET Prevalence in the US, 2004 1200 • Median survival (1988 – 2004) • Localized 203 months • Regional 114 months • Distant 39 months 103,312 cases(35/100,000) 1100 Cases (thousands) 100 0 Colon Neuroendocrine Stomach Pancreas Esophagus Hepatobiliary 29-year limited duration prevalence analysis based on SEER. Yao JC et al. J ClinOncol. 2008;26:3063-3072. SEER = Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results

  7. Missed Symptoms and Late Diagnosis • Flushing • No sweating • First sip of alcohol • Diarrhea • Especially nocturnal • Wheezing • Irritable bowel syndrome • Bloating Yao JC et al. J Clin Oncol. 2008;26:3063-3072.

  8. Diagnosis and Initial Work-Up Pathologic confirmation Assess disease burden Assess functional status

  9. Anatomic Imaging: CT Std Arterial Venous Delayed Imaging studies property of James Yao, MD. CT: computed tomography.

  10. Anatomic Imaging: MRI MRI = magnetic resonance imaging Imaging studies property of James Yao, MD.

  11. Anatomic CT and Indium-111 Pentetreotide Scintigraphy Imaging studies property of James Yao, MD.

  12. Tumor Markers • General NET markers • Chromogranin A • Affected by somatostatin analogues, proton pump inhibitors, kidney function, liver function • Neuron-specific enolase • Midgut (small bowel, appendix, cecum) • 5 HIAA (24-hr urine collection) • Serotonin (blood, more variable) 5-HIAA = 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid

  13. Other Markers in Functional Tumors Fasting measurements when possible

  14. Principles of Marker Assessment • Lots of markers; expression can change over time • Chromogranin B and C, pancreastatin, substance P, neurotensin, neurokinin A, pancreatic polypeptide • Take large panel of markers at key points • Diagnosis or relapse • Follow a few elevated markers over time • Not necessary to check every marker at each visit

  15. Current Treatment Approaches Somatostatin analogs Chemotherapy for pancreatic NETs Regional therapy approaches

  16. Limited Options for Advanced NETs Functional Octreotide LAR + chemotherapy pNET Hepatic artery embolization Investigational agents (No approved therapies available) Nonfunctional Chemotherapy Carcinoid syndrome Disease progression Octreotide LAR Midgut No syndrome Carcinoid No standard Non-midgut No syndrome No standard LAR = long-acting release; pNET = pancreatic NET

  17. pNET: Streptozocin-Based Chemotherapy Imaging studies property of James Yao, MD.

  18. Need for Tumor Control Agents Remains High SurvivalPatients with distant NET (1988-2004) Limited Options Carcinoid Pancreatic NET • Median survival • Carcinoid 43 months • pNET 27 months • Carcinoid • No approved drugs for tumor control • pNET • Streptozocin approved but perceived to be toxic • No agreed-upon standard treatment for tumor control Yao JC et al. J Clin Oncol. 2008;26:3063-3072.

  19. Emerging Therapeutic Approaches Somatostatin receptor Peptide receptor radiotherapy Angiogenesis mTOR mTOR = mammalian target of rapamycin

  20. Targeting NETs • Somatostatin receptors highly expressed by NETs • Targeting SST receptors can provide symptom and disease control • New targets could change treatment paradigm : • mTOR, PI3K, VEGF inhibitors • Other antiangiogenic agents • High potential for combinations PI3K = phosphoinositide 3-kinase; SST = somatostatin; VEGF = vascular endothelial growth factor

  26. 177Lu DOTATATE: What Does It Mean? • If ITT principle applied to response: • 91 responses among 504 patients • RR drops to 18% • High reported TTP calculated only for 249 who did not have PD as best treatment outcome • PRRT clearly active; strong need for rigorous phase 3 study PD = progressive disease Kwekkeboom DJ et al.
