Background: Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) including Lutetium177 (Lu177) has changed the treatment landscape of metastatic gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs). There is a subgroup of patients who are resistant or develop resistance after initial success to PRRT, indicating that accurate predictive markers are urgently needed to identify who will benefit from PRRT. We hypothesize that expression of ATRX (Alpha Thalassemia and Mental Retardation...

Background: Somatostatin analogues (SSAs) are the standard of care first line therapy for metastatic well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). They are approved for both alleviating hormone-related symptoms for functional tumors and inhibiting tumor growth. Their anti-proliferative benefit in the refractory setting is debatable due to lack of supportive literature. This systematic review compared efficacy of targeted therapies (Everolimus, Sunitinib, Surufatinib, Lenva...
