#4666 Merkel cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin: High response rates to short course palliative radiotherapy – Typical clinical scenarios

Introduction: Merkel cell carcinomas (MCC) are a rare, aggressive skin neuroendocrine carcinomas, with peak incidence in the elderly. MCC often presents as a firm, red/purple painless nodule with a short history of increasing size. Surgery is considered the 1st line treatment but elderly patients, in particular, have comorbidities which may preclude radical surgery requiring reconstruction. In advanced MCC, immunotherapy (IO) is 1st line systemic treatment. Chemotherapy is used 2nd line or if contraindications for IO but can be challenging in an elderly population. There may be an emerging role for PRRT due to the presence of somatostatin receptors on MCC. Radiotherapy (RT) can be used for non-surgical candidates, or those with unresectable or metastatic disease. Adjuvant post-operative irradiation (PORT) may provide additional benefit in risk reduction and improves local control.

#4647 Crosstalk between cancer-associated fibroblasts and small intestinal neuroendocrine tumour cells in a 3D spheroid model

Introduction: At diagnosis, over 50% of small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours (SI-NETs) have metastasised to the mesentery where they often induce extensive fibrosis. Recent studies highlight the crucial interaction between SI-NET cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in the pathogenesis of mesenteric fibrosis (MF).

#4644 First results of peptide-receptor radionuclide therapy in the Russian population of patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms

Introduction: Peptide-receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) has demonstrated its efficacy and safety in a number of clinical trials and has become widely used in the treatment of patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) expressing somatostatin receptors.

#4635 Comparison of 18F-DOPA PET/CT and 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT and their impact on response to PRRT in midgut neuroendocrine tumours

Introduction: 18F-DOPA PET/CT is a powerful diagnostic test for assessing tumour burden in midgut neuroendocrine tumours (NETs). 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT is required for patient selection for PRRT.
