- W3024885916 abstract "Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) comprise a heterogeneous group of tumours, which can be classified into neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs) and mixed neuroendocrine non-neuroendocrine neoplasms (MiNENs). To date, there is no consensus regarding the optimal therapy, which usually depends on the primary location and classification, according to morphological features of differentiation and proliferation rates. Nevertheless, multidisciplinary strategies combining medical treatments and locoregional strategies have yielded better efficacy results. Here, we report the case of a patient diagnosed with a nonfunctional rectal NECs with metastatic widespread to pelvic lymph nodes and bilateral lung metastases. The patient received three cycles of platinum-etoposide, concomitantly with palliative radiotherapy. Although CT scan after three cycles showed a significant partial response, there was an early fatal progression only 3 months after having stopped systemic therapy. As formerly described in the literature, this case highlights the aggressive behaviour of NECs, rare tumours that often present in advanced stages at diagnosis. Lately, new insights into the molecular biology of NECs have unveiled the possibility of using novel drugs, such as targeted agents or immunotherapy, in molecularly selected subgroups of patients. In this review, we discuss the current management of this rare entity and provide an overview of the most relevant molecular findings, whilst illustrating the potential value that prescreening panels can offer, searching for actionable targets (MSI/dMMR, PD-L1, BRAFv600E) to guide therapy with promising agents that could fill a void in this disease." @default.
