#2874 Role of FOXM1 in Aggressive Pancreatic / Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Carcinomas and Anti-Tumor Effect of the FOXM1 Inhibitor Thiostrepton

Introduction: DNA-targeting agents are the main treatment of aggressive pulmonary and pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC). FOXM1 is a transcription factor controlling cell proliferation and DNA repair pathways, playing therefore an important role in tumor progression and chemoresistance.

#2834 Tumor-Promoting Effects of the Transcriptional Regulator CUX1 in PanNET

Introduction: Previously, we identified CUX1 as mediator of metastatic behaviour and poor differentiation in human insulinomas. CUX1 mediated tumor-promoting functions via enhancing proliferation, resistance to apoptosis and angiogenesis in-vitro and in-vivo.

#2750 Progression-Free Survival and Clinical Outcomes with Long-Term Use of Telotristat Ethyl in US Clinical Practice

Introduction: Treatment of advanced neuroendocrine tumors aims to relieve symptoms and suppress tumor growth. Primary findings from the TELEACE study suggested telotristat ethyl (TE) may reduce tumor size and impact tumor growth.

#2739 Epigenetic Landscape of Pancreatic Neuro-Endocrine Tumors Reveals Distinct Cells of Origin and Means of Tumor Progression

Introduction: Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (PanNETs) arise from cells of the Islets of Langerhans. The majority of PanNETs are non-functional and their cell of origin cannot be defined analysing specific hormone production. Cell of origin assessment has proven importance to identify risk factors, prevent tumour development, and tailor treatment in many malignancies. Recent data on super-enhancer signatures has suggested a potential origin of PanNET from α- or β-cells. We and others have shown that distinct epigenetic profiles assessed by DNA methylation (DNAme) characterize genomic and prognostic groups of PanNET.
