#3533 Identification of proangiogenic plasmatic biomarkers in patients with advanced grade 1/2 pancreatic (pan) and gastrointestinal (gi) neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) treated with Lenvatinib: A subanalysis from the TALENT phase II clinical trial

Introduction: TALENT phase II trial provided evidence of the efficacy of Lenvatinib in patients with panNETs and giNETs. However, no predictive biomarker has been associated to antiangiogenic treatment benefit to date.

#1850 Influence of VEGF Splicing on Microvessel Density and Architecture in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours

Introduction: Hypoxia in human tumours is associated with a poor prognosis and is characterized by the stabilization of HIF1α, upregulation of VEGF, and a high microvessel density (MVD). Interestingly, although pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (pNETS) showing hypoxia signalling also have a poor prognosis, they paradoxically display a low MVD. We hypothesized that this paradoxon might be explained by alternative splicing of VEGF.

#1249 Impact of VEGF and VEGFR Polymorphisms on Neuroendocrine Tumors of the Gastro-Entero-Pancreatic System (GEP-NET) Outcome.

Introduction: Improving our understanding of the molecular biology of GEP-NETs represents a key challenge in the treatment of these rare tumors.

#1150 Platelet Serotonin But Not Dopamine Concentrations Are Lower in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor and Renal Cell Carcinoma Patients Compared to Healthy Individuals.

Introduction: Platelets carry VEGF-A, serotonin and dopamine. Serotonin stimulates and dopamine inhibits tumor angiogenesis. We hypothesized that platelets are activated in tumor vasculature and release angiogenic factors, resulting in lower platelet serotonin and dopamine.

#912 Serial 89Zr-bevacizumab PET in Patients with Neuroendocrine Tumors before and on Everolimus Treatment

Introduction: Everolimus increases PFS in patients with advanced NETs. Currently, no biomarkers are available for early selection of patients who will benefit from everolimus. Everolimus can reduce VEGF-A production by tumor cells.
