Keywords: carcinoid syndrome, PRRT,
Introduction: The efficacy of PRRT has been demonstrated in patients with well differentiated NETS. The NETTER-01 study demonstrated disease stabilisation or partial response in approximately 80% of patients. However, more studies are needed to identify predictors of response

#1698 Assessment of Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) in NET Patients
Introduction: SIBO is not uncommon in NETs. Hydrogen Breath testing (HBT) using glucose may be more sensitive to proximal SIBO as glucose rarely reaches the colon. Many NET patients are likely to have distal SIBO however, as factors such as ileocecal valve removal apparently increase distal SIBO risk. Thus glucose BT alone may limit sensitivity for detecting SIBO in some NET diagnoses.
