#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.

#4652 Clinical response to somatostatin analogues in patients with DIPNECH: Findings from a new longitudinal registry

Introduction: Diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia (DIPNECH) often presents with symptoms of cough and dyspnoea. DIPNECH remains understudied, and response to somatostatin analogues (SSAs) has been reported in a few small series.

#4639 Prevalence and characteristics of incidental NET of the Meckel’s diverticula: Retrospective cohort study at a tertiary centre

Introduction: Meckel’s diverticulum is a rare finding in adults but can harbour malignancies such as leiomyosarcoma or neuroendocrine tumours (NET). The clinical presentation and tumour characteristics, including grading, have shown high variability in recent studies for NET.

#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.
