Introduction: The efficacy of olaparib for treatment-related neuroendocrine prostate cancer is unknown. Here, we report a case of treatment-related neuroendocrine prostate cancer with a mutation that was treated with olaparib with 1-year efficacy.
Case Presentation: A 75-year-old man initially diagnosed with prostate adenocarcinoma developed treatment-related neuroendocrine prostate cancer after 10-year androgen deprivation therapy. Despite the initial temporary effects of etoposide and carboplatin, the patient experienced prostate bed tumor recurrence 1 year after chemotherapy cessation. FoundationOne® detected a gene mutation, and olaparib was initiated after repeating one chemotherapy course using the same chemotherapeutic agents. The patient received olaparib with sustained tumor regression for 1 year without severe side effects.
Conclusion: Olaparib may be the treatment of choice for treatment-related neuroendocrine prostate cancer in patients with mutations.

Background: Neuroendocrine neoplasias grade 3 (NEN G3) are rare tumors with poor prognosis and no established second-line therapy. The role of immune checkpoint blockade in these aggressive tumors remains unclear.
Methods: The phase II AVENEC study evaluated the effect of avelumab (AVE, 10 mg/kg IV Q2W) in 60 patients with well-differentiated high-grade neuroendocrine tumors (NET G3, N=22) or poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC, N=38) progressing after ≥ one prior chemotherapy (excluding Merkel cell and small-cell lung cancer).

Background: The second-line treatment of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of unknown primary origin remains uncertain. This report presented a patient who received octreotide plus IBI-318 plus anlotinib as a second-line treatment for multiple metastatic NETs of unknown primary lesions after the failure of octreotide plus everolimus.
Case Presentation: A 32-year-old male patient presented with elevated CEA (197.

Background: Sex disparities are known modifiers of health and disease. In neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs), sex-based differences have been observed in the epidemiology and treatment-related side effects.
Objectives: To examine sex differences in demographics, diagnoses present during hospital admission, comorbidities, and outcomes of hospital course among hospitalized patients with NENs.

Purpose: In this Phase 1 portion of a first-in-human Phase 1/2a study (NCT05199272), 23ME-00610 was evaluated in participants with advanced solid malignancies to determine its safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics. Exploratory biomarkers were evaluated to examine potential correlates of efficacy and safety.
Patients And Methods: Eligible participants (≥18 years) were administered 23ME-00610 intravenously every 3 weeks using an accelerated titration design followed by a traditional 3+3 design, with an initial dose level of 2 mg.

Background And Objectives: Atypical thymic carcinoids (ATCs) are rare mediastinal malignancies that lack established treatment guidelines. Capecitabine and temozolomide (CapTem) has demonstrated significant efficacy in pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs), while its applicability and effectiveness in ATCs remain underexplored. This study seeks to investigate the efficacy, safety, and prognostic factors associated with CapTem in ATC patients.
