#4498 Quality of life outcome after each cycle in NET patients receiving peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT)

Introduction: Quality of Life (QoL) Questionnaire GI NET21 was developed specifically for neuroendocrine tumours (NET). A significant proportion of all patients with GEP-NETs will ultimately present with a wide variety of NET-related symptoms such as skin flushing, diarrhoea and pain as well as disease related worries that can reduce QoL. Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is an established treatment in NETs and has been shown to extend survival. However, QoL data post PRRT is still somewhat limited.

#3578 Optimal PLAnning of treatment and research of Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs) in Australia: The PLANET registry and patient reported outcomes via PLANET App

Introduction: Neuroendocrine Neoplasms (NENs) are challenging to diagnose and manage due to their varied behaviour. Despite usually having an indolent course, they are often metastatic at diagnosis and can be associated with significant long-term morbidity and impaired quality-of-life (QOL). The PLANET registry was established to collate clinical data from tertiary NET centres and integrate these with real-time patient reported outcomes (PROs) enabled by the smartphone-based PLANET App.

#3448 Differential diagnosis of diarrhoea in patients with neuroendocrine tumors

Introduction: Patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) frequently experience diarrhoea that can impact their quality of life. Pancreatic enzyme insufficiency (PEI), bile acid diarrhoea (BAD) and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) are potential causes. There is a limited data on prevalence of these conditions in NETs.

#3037 Effects of Debulking Surgery, Transarterial Embolisation (TAE) and Transarterial Chemoembolisation (TACE) on Quality of Life in Patients with Metastatic Ileal and Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours (NETs)

Introduction: Debulking surgery, TAE and TACE procedures are undertaken in patients with metastatic NETs. Reducing the physical burden of disease may prolong survival and can improve the quality of life of patients. However, there is only limited quality of life data available after surgery despite the fact that is has been used routinely for many years.

#2955 Development of an EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire for Patients with Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours: Phases 1-3

Introduction: Measuring quality of life (QoL) in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours (pNET) involves assessing issues from symptoms, disease and treatment. The validated gastrointestinal NETs module (EORTC QLQ-GINET21) is used with EORTC QLQ-C30 but there are concerns it inadequately measures QoL in pNET.
