Initial validation of the clinical significance of the NETest in Japanese gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumor patients

As novel biomarkers for gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEPNET) are in demand, we aimed to validate the clinical value of the NETest in Japanese patients. Between 2021 and 2023, blood and clinical data were collected from patients with GEPNET. Among 35 patients (median age: 59 [49–66]...

description As novel biomarkers for gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEPNET) are in demand, we aimed to validate the clinical value of the NETest in Japanese patients. Between 2021 and 2023, blood and clinical data were collected from patients with GEPNET. Among 35 patients (median age: 59 [49–66] years), 27 cases originated from the pancreas and eight from the gastrointestinal tract. Of 69 samples sent to the laboratory, 56 (81.2%) underwent NETest. The diagnostic sensitivity was 97.1%. Among three patients who underwent R0 resection and four treated with peptide receptor radionuclide therapy, the changes in NETest scores closely correlated with disease progression. The NETest demonstrated high diagnostic efficacy and accurate therapeutic monitoring capabilities in a Japanese population.
