Long-term clinical outcomes of [Lu]Lu-DOTATATE in patients with metastatic neuroendocrine tumors.

The incidence of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors has been rising and these tumors are usually only diagnosed at a metastatic stage. Present first line treatments include somatostatin analogs, targeted therapies and peptide receptor radionuclide therapy. The Lutetium-177 [Lu] based radiotracer [Lu]Lu-DOTATATE has only been approved as first-line treatment of metastatic midgut NETs however its efficacy as a third line or above treatment in patients with non ileal primaries has not been tested.

Targeted Therapy for BRAF V600E Positive Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: Two Case Reports.

Background/aim: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a malignancy that typically portends a poor prognosis, with a median overall survival ranging from eight to twelve months in patients with metastatic disease. Novel modalities of therapy, primarily targeted therapy, are now considered for patients with targetable mutations, such as BRAF mutations based on next generation sequencing. BRAF mutations specifically within pancreatic adenocarcinoma remain rare with an incidence of approximately 3%.
