#4667 Clinical outcomes in patients with typical (TC) and atypical bronchial carcinoids (AC): A 15-year retrospective study from an ENETS Center of Excellence

Introduction: Bronchial neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) can be subdivided into TCs, ACs and neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs). Although a few studies have explored treatment approaches and oncological outcomes, most focus on surgical cohorts, small sample sizes, or mixed groups including TC, AC, and NECs. Real-life cohort data are lacking.

#4625 Efficacy and safety of capecitabine-temozolomide (CAPTEM) regimen in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms – A systematic review and experience from NETwerk, a Belgian ENETS Center of Excellence

Introduction: Current treatment guidelines remain inconclusive due to scarcity of data regarding the optimal systemic treatment for metastatic gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) neuroendocrine tumours (NET) grade 3 and aggressive GEP-NET grade 2. Similarly, for metastatic pulmonary typical (TC) and atypical carcinoids (AC), the indication for chemotherapy is unclear. Recent evidence highlights a promising role for CAPTEM, combining temozolomide (TEM) with capecitabine (CAP), showing encouraging antitumoural activity and safety profiles for these indications.

#4594 RNA splicing as a key regulatory player with translational potential in pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasms (lungNETs)

Introduction: Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are a diverse group of neoplasms arising from neuroendocrine cells. Within this group, lung neuroendocrine tumours (LungNETs) represent one of the most frequent subtypes of NETs. LungNETs are classified by grade, according to their proliferative index and aggressiveness. Among them, typical carcinoids (G1) and atypical carcinoids (G2) are the lowest grade subtypes. While these tumours are less aggressive, they remain underexplored compared to higher-grade subtypes, highlighting the need for molecular studies to improve clinical approaches. In this context, previous studies have shown that abnormalities in the splicing machinery are frequent in tumour pathologies and also occur in LungNETs.

#4536 Follow-up is not justified in patients with typical lung carcinoids treated with curative intent

Introduction: Typical carcinoids (TC) are well-differentiated neuroendocrine neoplasms of the lung with generally favourable prognosis. Recurrence is rare in TC patients treated with curative intent, yet current ENETS guidelines recommend extensive follow-up, including regular and long-term imaging.

#4442 Prevalence of second primary malignancies in patients with neuroendocrine tumours – Experience from a tertiary reference centre

Introduction: Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) constitute a diverse group of tumours. NETs are often diagnosed late, due to nonspecific symptoms. Second Primary Malignancies (SPMs) have been reported in up to 25% of NETs and their incidence has been described as negative predictor of OS.
