Trends of incidence and prognosis of gastric neuroendocrine neoplasms: a study based on SEER and our multicenter research.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:To investigate the recent epidemiological trends of gastric neuroendocrine neoplasms (GNENs) and establish a new tool to estimate the prognosis of gastric neuroendocrine carcinoma (GNEC) and gastric neuroendocrine tumor (GNET). METHODS:Nomograms were established based on a retrospective study on patients diagnosed with GNENs from 1975 to 2016 in Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database. External validation was performed among 246 GNENs patients in Jiangsu province to verify the discrimination and calibration of the nomograms. RESULTS:The age-adjusted incidence of GNENs has increased from 0.309 to 6.149 per 1,000,000 persons in the past 4 decades. Multivariate analysis indicated independent prognostic factors for both GNEC and GNET including age, distant metastasis and surgical intervention (P?

Project description:IntroductionMixed neuroendocrine non-neuroendocrine neoplasm (MiNEN) is a rare form of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs). The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics and survival profile of appendiceal MiNENs, with a view of providing robust clinical features of this rare disease.MethodsPatients were selected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (2004-2016). The prognosis of MiNEN (n = 315) was compared with other histological subtypes including neuroendocrine tumor (NETs) (n = 1734), neuroendocrine carcinoma (NECs) (n = 375), goblet cell carcinoid (GCC) (n = 968), signet ring cell carcinoma (n = 463), mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC) (n = 2355), and non-mucinous adenocarcinoma (NMAC) (n = 1187) in the appendix. Age-adjusted incidence was calculated using Joinpoint regression. The Cox proportional hazards model and the Fine-Gray competing risk model were used to perform overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific mortality (CSM) analyses, respectively.ResultsThe age-adjusted incidence of MiNENs increased from 0.01/100,000 person-years in 2004 to 0.07/100,000 person-years in 2016. The 3-, 5-, and 10-year OS rates for MiNENs were 69.5, 57.4, and 43.7%, respectively, and the corresponding CSM rates were 23.1, 36.4, and 45.1%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that the prognosis of MiNENs was worse than that of NETs, NECs, GCC, and MAC but better than that of NMAC and signet ring cell carcinoma. Tumor extension was the only independent factor influencing the prognosis of MiNENs, but tumor size, grade, and surgical approaches were not. Moreover, when compared with local excision or appendectomy, extensive surgery such as hemicolectomy or colectomy did not prolong the survival of individuals with MiNENs.ConclusionMiNEN is a rare but aggressive tumor with a poor prognosis differing from NENs, GCC and adenocarcinomas. To improve the prognosis of the disease, early diagnosis and comprehensive evaluation are necessary.

Project description:BackgroundGrade 3 gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (G3 GEPNENs) are often aggressive, and the optimal treatment is unclear for this subgroup of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs). Temozolomide (TEM)-based regimens have been increasingly used to treat grade 1-2 NENs, but their efficacy in G3 NENs remains undetermined. We aimed to assess the clinical efficacy of TEM-containing regimens in advanced grade 3 GEPNENs.Materials and methodsA multicenter retrospective review (2008-2018) of patients with metastatic/unresectable G3 GEPNENs who received a TEM-containing regimen was undertaken within a North American partnership to pool data. The primary endpoint was time to treatment failure (TTF). Radiologic response was extracted from local reports.ResultsOne hundred and thirty patients in six high-volume NEN centers were included (median age 55, 64% male, 18% functional, 67% pancreatic NEN). Forty-nine percent were well-differentiated, 35% poorly differentiated, and 15% unknown based on local pathology reports. The regimen used was capecitabine and temozolomide (CAPTEM) in 92% and TEM alone in 8%. Radiological response by local assessment was seen in 36% of patients. Median TTF was 3.6 months and median overall survival (OS) 19.2 months. Six percent of patients required discontinuation of therapy due to adverse events. TTF was longer in first-line treatment (7.8 months vs. 2.9 months; hazard ratio, 1.62; 95% confidence interval, 1.11-2.36; p = .015) and in patients with pancreatic NENs (panNENs) compared with gastrointestinal NENs (5.8 months vs 1.8 months; p = .04). The overall response rate was higher in the first-line setting (51% vs 29%; p = .02) and in panNEN (41% vs 23%; p = .04).ConclusionThis is the largest TEM treatment series in G3 NEN, involving collaboration of several major North American NEN centers as a partnership. Thirty-six percent of patients showed some degree of radiographic response, and treatment was generally well tolerated, although the median duration of response was short. Response rates and time to treatment failure were superior in the first-line setting. CAPTEM should be considered a viable treatment option in this setting. Further randomized trials are warranted.Implications for practiceNeuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are heterogeneous, and optimal treatment for aggressive grade 3 (G3) NENs remains undetermined. The capecitabine and temozolomide (CAPTEM) regimen has been used in low-grade pancreas NENs but there are few data for its safety and efficacy in the G3 setting. This article reports on the efficacy of temozolomide-containing regimens, particularly CAPTEM, in management of G3 NENs. The good tolerance and response rate show that CAPTEM should be considered a viable regimen in treatment of G3 NENs pending confirmatory prospective studies.
