#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.

#4658 The nutritional status worsens over 5 years in patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours on treatment with somatostatin analogues

Introduction: Malnutrition is common in patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEP-NETs) treated with monthly somatostatin analogues (SSAs). Ideally all malnourished patients are offered nutritional support. However, clinical guidelines and data on the development and progression of malnutrition is lacking.

#4649 Claudin 18.2 overexpression in gastric neuroendocrine tumours

Introduction: Claudin 18.2, is a tissue biomarker physiologically expressed in both healthy gastric mucosa and gastric adenocarcinoma which represents a novel therapeutic target advanced gastric cancer. Various other cancers showed some overexpression of claudin 18.2 opening potential opportunities to agnostic targeted therapy. However, data about claudin 18.2 expression in NENs are poor with only an Eastern study showing higher rate of claudin 18.2 positivity in GEP-NENs, mainly from gastric primary site (27.8%).

#4646 Dysregulated miRNA in patients with GEP-NEN and potential role as circulating biomarker

Introduction: Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are a class of rare and molecularly extremely heterogeneous tumours. NENs arise predominantly in the gastrointestinal (GEP) and pulmonary tracts but can also involve thyroid and breast. NENs often present with non-specific symptoms and lack early specific biomarkers, leading to frequent metastatic diagnoses and primary site challenges.

#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.
