#4187 Psychiatric and cognitive function in patients with serotonin producing neuroendocrine tumors
Introduction: Cognitive and psychiatric problems are common in cancer patients, but literature in patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NET) is scarce. Peripheral serotonin overproduction by the tumor, clinically manifesting as carcinoid syndrome, is hypothesized to be related to cognitive and psychiatric problems, through depletion of serotonin’s precursor tryptophan.

#3402 Serial liquid biopsies - the NETest - in gastroenteropancreatic NET surveillance
Introduction: Current general biomarkers are insufficient to predict the disease course in individual patients with gastro-entero-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs).

Introduction: Extrapulmonary NEC (EP-NEC) are an aggressive subgroup of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN). Advanced EP-NEC are generally treated with platinum-based cytotoxic regimens. Although highly responsive to cytotoxic therapies, recurrence occurs frequently and rapidly, with a poor prognosis and lack of further treatment options. Genetic alterations in the mTOR pathway have been identified in NEN, providing a rationale for treatment with the mTOR inhibitor everolimus.

Introduction: There are controversies about the use of total parental nutrition (TPN) in patients with cancer. Currently data regarding TPN use in patients with neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are lacking.

#2977 Predicting Survival in Patients with a Neuroendocrine Tumor of the Small Intestine (SI-NET)
Introduction: SI-NET comprise the largest group of neuroendocrine tumors. Because of their heterogeneity, predicting survival has proven challenging. A nomogram (NG) to assess SI-NET disease specific survival (DSS) has been developed in 2010 by Modlin, et al. based on analysis of retrospective data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database.
