The Clinical Utility of a Blood-Based Multitranscriptome Assay as a Biomarker for Gastroenteropancreatic and Lung Neuroendocrine Tumors

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well an investigational blood test performs. The
study will look at the sensitivity and specificity of a blood-based multitranscriptome assay
(NETest).


Inclusion Criteria:

NET Cohort-

- Patients with histologically or cytologically proven diagnosis of any grade, any stage
NET of GEP or lung origin; In the first stage of the study (initial 50 patients) only
patients with stage IV, well-differentiated tumors (G1/G2) will be enrolled.

- Patients with stable or progressive disease, as documented on a scan (CT, MRI);
Progression status will be documented on case report form (CRF).

- Allowed prior therapies include: a.) Surgery (tumor surgery at least four weeks prior
to study entry); b.) Locoregional therapy such as: chemoembolization,
radio-embolization, radiofrequency ablation, radiotherapy at least six weeks prior to
study entry; c.) Any number of previous lines of systemic therapy, providing that
cytotoxic therapies (chemotherapy, PRRT) have been discontinued at least 4 weeks prior
to study entry.

Non-NET Cohort -

- Healthy participants

- Patients with histologically or cytologically proven diagnosis of any grade, any stage
GI malignancies.

Exclusion Criteria:

NET Cohort -

- Patients on treatment with cytotoxic agents (chemotherapy, PRRT).

- Patients with renal insufficiency or congestive heart failure.

- No other active malignancy within 3 years of enrolment except adequately treated basal
cell or squamous cell skin cancer, in situ cervical cancer, adequately treated stage I
or II cancer from which the patient is currently in complete remission.

Non-NET Cohort

- Patients with GI malignancies with neuroendocrine differentiation.
