A Novel Classification of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (pNETs) Guided by Genomics Abstract #2281
Introduction: NET outcomes differ by primary site. Yet pNETs are classified using a generic GI grading system.
Aim(s): Genomics may assist prognostication of pNET behaviour in the clinic.
Materials and methods: We report deep genomic analysis of pNETs from 57 patients using a NimbleGen SeqCap comprehensive panel (n=578 genes) augmented with a custom NET–specific panel (n=57 genes) at ~780X coverage) and Affymetrix PrimeView RNA expression arrays (~36,000 transcripts). Bioinformatics were conducted using in-house pipelines customised for NETs.

#2926 O-Positive Blood Group Is Associated with Prolonged Recurrence-Free Survival Following Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor (PanNET) Curative-Intent Surgical Resection
Introduction: The ABO blood group may influence the development and progression of cancer. In particular, the prognosis of pancreatic adenocarcinoma is better in patients with blood group O. This has not been extensively explored in PanNET.

#3044 Efficacy of Alkylating Agent Re-challenge after Therapeutic Pause in Metastatic Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (PanNET)
Introduction: Temozolomide (TMZ) and dacarbazine (DTIC) are alkylating agents (ALK) with antitumor efficacy in metastatic PanNET. Rechallenging ALK following prior efficacy is commonly performed but has not been evaluated.

#3036 Can Ki-67 with 5.5% Be Better in Predicting Prognosis for Well Differentiated Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors?
Introduction: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are rare malignancies, Ki-67 is a cell proliferation marker that has been shown to have some utility in predicting prognosis of neuroendocrine tumors. However, the ideal grading method for G1/G2 remains controversial.
