Not All Patients with a Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumour Will Benefit from All Approved or Recommended Therapeutic Options: A Real-Life Retrospective Study

Abstract: Background: At least nine therapeutic options are recommended or approved for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumour (pNET). The primary endpoint of this study was to determine the number of therapeutic lines given before death. Secondary endpoints were to determine toxic events as a function of number of therapeutic lines and of time. Methods: Patients with pNET treated between 1998 and 2010 at our centre were characterised. All therapeutic lines were recorded as well as tumour- or toxic-related deaths. Persistent … Show more

“…There is evidence, however, that this is not the case; OS was very long (median 104 months from diagnosis of mP-NETs and 62% 5-year OS). OS is longer than that in a recent study of 92 patients with unresectable/metastatic P-NET (60-month median OS and 51% 5-year OS) (Berdelou et al 2016). Furthermore, this included a minority of welldifferentiated grade 3 NET (NET-G3), that we chose to include in Group 3.…”

“…This study also provides data for treatments given in mP-NET. As reported by Berdelou et al (2016), we demonstrate that not all patients will benefit from all approved or recommended therapeutic options in mP-NET. In the present study, just over half of deceased patients received three lines or less.…”
