#3081 An Atypical Presentation of a Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of Unknown Origin

Introduction: Neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC) of unknown primary site are uncommon. Most arise from an occult/clinically undetectable primary. Primary NEC of genitourinary tract are rare. High-grade (HG) carcinoms, are rapidly growing and aggressive but usually responsive to platinum-based combination chemotherapy.

#3073 The Role of Rb as a Prognostic Factor in Grade 3 Poorly Differentiated Neuroendocrine Carcinoma (G3NEC) Treated by First Line Platinum-Etoposide Combination, a Retrospective Study

Introduction: G3NEC are heterogeneous and aggressive diseases which can arise in different organs. Platinum-etoposide combination is used as first line treatment whatever the primary. Rb has been suggested to be a predictive/prognostic factor.

#3030 Targeting CXCR4 and Thioredoxin Reductase in Theranostics of Atypical Carcinoid and Neuroendocrine Carcinoma

Introduction: Atypical carcinoid and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) are currently incurable. There is thus a critical need for new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for lung neuroendocrine neoplasms (LNEN). Chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4), a G protein coupled receptor and theranostic target, plays a crucial role in metastases of LNEN. We hypothesize combination of thioredoxin reductase (TR) inhibitor represents a metabolic strategy to enhance cytotoxicity in peptide-receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) of LNEN.

#2995 Prediction of Symptomatic Mesenteric Mass in Patients with Small Intestinal Neuroendocrine Tumors Using a CT Radiomics Approach

Introduction: A mesenteric mass surrounded by fibrosis is a hallmark feature of small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) that can induce severe abdominal complications. To improve clinical outcome, there is a need for personalized treatment strategies based on accurate prediction of development of abdominal complications.

#2905 DNA Methyltransferase Inhibitor Hydralazine Induces Upregulation of Somatostatin Type 2 Receptors in Human Neuroendocrine Tumor Cells

Introduction: Epidrugs like DNA methyltransferase inhibitors (DNMTi) can increase somatostatin receptor type 2 (SST2) expression in neuroendocrine tumor (NET) cells in vitro and in vivo. This effect could be used for NET patients with low SST2 expression who are currently ineligible for somatostatin analogue (SSA) treatment. However, the DNMTi known to stimulate SST2 have either a high toxicity profile or are not yet approved.
