In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Background: Neuroendocrine neoplasm (NENs)are rare cancers arising from the neuroendocrine cells and can affect almost any part of the body. They vary from low grade neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) to high grade neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs). These tumors often occur in the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, lungs, adrenal medulla (pheochromocytomas) or adrenal cortex (adrenocortical cancer) and other areas of the body mentioned below: * Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NET): stomach, duodenum, pancreas, colon, appendix, etc. * Liver and gallbladder * Adrenal tumors * Pituitary gland * Thyroid gland: medullary thyroid carcinoma * Parathyroid tumors * Pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors: typical and atypical carcinoid, small cell lung cancer (SCLC), large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) * Extrapulmonary small cell cancer * Peripheral nervous system tumors: paragangliom
