Long-term disease stabilization in a patient with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor treated with combined everolimus and octreotide LAR after prior failure of cytotoxic therapy
Introduction:
Targeting of multiple pathways has become an important strategy for improved tumor control in metastatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Among these targets is the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), a central regulator of cell growth, proliferation, and apoptosis, which is blocked by everolimus, an oral inhibitor of mTOR that has shown efficacy in patients with metastatic pancreatic NETs. Recent evidence has suggested that suppression of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) secretion with octreotide therapy, along with concurrent inhibition of mTOR by everolimus, may improve tumor control synergistically by preventing feedback activation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway.
