Popis: PURPOSE: Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is effective for metastatic/inoperable neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Imaging response assessment is usually efficient subsequent to treatment completion. Blood biomarkers such as PRRT Predictive Quotient (PPQ) and NETest are effective in real-time. PPQ predicts PRRT efficacy, NETest monitors disease. We prospectively evaluated: 1) NETest as a surrogate biomarker for RECIST; 2) The correlation of NETest levels with PPQ prediction. METHODS: Three independent (177)Lu-PRRT-treated GEP-NET and lung cohorts (Meldola, Italy: n=72; Bad-Berka, Germany: n=44; Rotterdam, Netherlands: n=41). Treatment response: RECIST1.1 [Responder (stable, partial and complete response) vs Non-Responder]. Blood sampling: pre-PRRT, before each cycle and follow-up (2-12 months). PPQ (positive/negative) and NETest (0-100 score) by PCR. Stable≤40; progressive >40). CgA (ELISA) as comparator. Samples deidentified, measurement and analyses blinded. Kaplan-Meier survival and standard statistics. RESULTS: 122 of the 157 were evaluable. RECIST stabilization or response in 67%; 33% progressed. NETest significantly (p40 (progressive) vs stable (≤40) significantly correlated with mPFS (not reached vs. 10 months; HR 0.04 (95%CI: 0.02-0.07). PPQ response prediction was accurate in 118 (97%) with a 99% accurate positive and 93% accurate negative prediction. NETest significantly (p97%) with the pretreatment PPQ response predictor. CgA was non-informative.
