Challenges in developing response evaluation criteria for peptide receptor radionuclide therapy: A consensus report from the European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society Advisory Board Meeting 2022 and the ENETS Theranostics Task Force.

Assessing the response to systemic therapy in neuroendocrine tumors (NET) is challenging since morphological imaging response is often delayed and not necessarily reflective of clinical benefit. Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) has a complex mechanism of action, further complicating response assessment. In response to these challenges, the European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS) Theranostics Task Force conducted a statement-based survey among experts to identify the current landscape and unmet needs in PRRT response assessment.

Clinical management of typical and atypical carcinoids/neuroendocrine tumors in ENETS centres of excellence (CoE): Survey from the ENETS lung NET task force.

Lung carcinoid tumours are neuroendocrine neoplasms originating from the bronchopulmonary tract's neuroendocrine cells, accounting for only 1%-3% of all lung cancers but 30% of all neuroendocrine tumours. The incidence of lung carcinoids, both typical and atypical, has been increasing over the years due to improved diagnostic methods and increased awareness among clinicians and pathologists. The most recent WHO classification includes a subgroup of lung carcinoids with atypical morphology and higher mitotic count and/or Ki67 labelling index.

Prospective comparison of [F]AlF-NOTA-octreotide PET/MRI to [Ga]Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT in neuroendocrine tumor patients.

Background: Fluorine-18-labeled SSAs have the potential to become the next-generation tracer in SSTR-imaging in neuroendocrine tumor (NET) patients given their logistical advantages over the current gold standard gallium-68-labeled SSAs. In particular, [F]AlF-OC has already shown excellent clinical performance. We demonstrated in our previous report from our prospective multicenter trial that [F]AlF-OC PET/CT outperforms [Ga]Ga-DOTA-SSA, but histological confirmation was lacking due to ethical and practical reasons.

Personalised radioembolization improves outcomes in refractory intra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma: a multicenter study.

Purpose: Reported outcomes of patients with intra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IH-CCA) treated with radioembolization are highly variable, which indicates differences in included patients' characteristics and/or procedure-related variables. This study aimed to identify patient- and treatment-related variables predictive for radioembolization outcome.

Methods: This retrospective multicenter study enrolled 58 patients with unresectable and chemorefractory IH-CCA treated with resin Y-microspheres.
