#4170 Analysis of the efficacy of STEM chemotherapy in patients with metastatic paraganglioma

Introduction: Paraganglioma is a special kind of neuroendocrine tumor, located outside the adrenal gland, about 35-40% is related to heredity and has corresponding germline mutation. The therapeutic response is different from that of neuroendocrine tumors derived from gastrointestinal and pancreas.

#3981 Identifying patients with undiagnosed small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors using statistical and machine learning: Model development and validation study

Introduction: Diagnosis of small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) is often delayed due to non-specific symptoms and lack of awareness among primary and secondary care physicians. Earlier diagnosis may lead to improved clinical and patient outcomes. Clinical prediction models using machine learning could present novel opportunities for expedited diagnosis in primary care.

#3756 The clinical utility of NETest in patients with small intestinal neuroendocrine neoplasms (SI-NENs) – A "real-life" study

Introduction: Management of patients with SI-NENs is challenging due to biological heterogeneity. Prognostication can be difficult, mostly due to a lack of reliable biomarkers.
