#3030 Targeting CXCR4 and Thioredoxin Reductase in Theranostics of Atypical Carcinoid and Neuroendocrine Carcinoma

Introduction: Atypical carcinoid and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) are currently incurable. There is thus a critical need for new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for lung neuroendocrine neoplasms (LNEN). Chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4), a G protein coupled receptor and theranostic target, plays a crucial role in metastases of LNEN. We hypothesize combination of thioredoxin reductase (TR) inhibitor represents a metabolic strategy to enhance cytotoxicity in peptide-receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) of LNEN.

#2999 Aberrant Tryptophan Metabolism in Stromal Cells Is Associated with Mesenteric Fibrosis in Small Intestinal Neuroendocrine Tumours

Introduction: Increased levels of serotonin secretion are associated with mesenteric fibrosis (MF) in small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs). However, only a proportion of patients with increased serotonin production will develop mesenteric fibrosis.

#2995 Prediction of Symptomatic Mesenteric Mass in Patients with Small Intestinal Neuroendocrine Tumors Using a CT Radiomics Approach

Introduction: A mesenteric mass surrounded by fibrosis is a hallmark feature of small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) that can induce severe abdominal complications. To improve clinical outcome, there is a need for personalized treatment strategies based on accurate prediction of development of abdominal complications.

#2246 Diffuse Idiopathic Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Cell Hyperplasia (DIPNECH): Characterisation of Prevalence and Prognosis in the Pulmonary Carcinoid Population

Introduction: DIPNECH is considered a rare condition and the natural history is poorly described. It is thought to give rise to pulmonary carcinoids (PCs) (>5mm) or tumourlets (≤5mm).

#2234 High Rate of Copy-Number Alterations in Gastrointestinal and Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors with Unidentified Driver Mutations

Introduction: The driving genetic alteration leading to neuroendocrine tumor (NET) development has been reported for primary tumors of pancreatic origin, but not for metastases. Moreover, even for primary tumor a significant “dark matter” remains to be explored.
