IOWA NEUROENDOCRINE DATABASE ( INED ) • Database begun in 1996 with Denise Soble, RN, E.W. Martin, Jr., M.D., and TMO at Ohio State. • Captures Phenotypic Patient Information • 80 Fields of Data • Visits, diagnoses, pathology, radiology, outcomes, survival • Captures Genotype Patient data • FISH, Exome sequencing, GPCR expression https//net.eng.uiowa/mode/add/diagnosis2 Username is “user” Password is “quest”
Problems with Neuroendocrine Tumor Therapeutic Intervention(s) • Decisions made primarily based on the “Gold Standard” CT, MR, Ultrasound demonstration of disease progression • Both “symptomatic” and “asymptomatic” changes are subjective and clinical signs, like art, are often in the eye of the beholder • Tumor-secreting amines and neuropeptides may be episodic initially & sustained later with tumor progression • In U.S., calibrations between neuropeptide plasma markers are sorely lacking between commercial labs
Functioning Neuroendocrine Tumors Basic Principles: • Syndromes and symptoms (e.g., hypoglycemia) are due to sudden or sustained elevations of circulating amines (e.g. serotonin, catecholamine, or neuropeptides (e.g., insulin, VIP). • Documentation of elevated amines and neuropeptides should be done whenever possible.
Carcinoid Tumors • Serotonin EOTA (Plasma + ascorbic acid) • most sensitive, episodic • Collection critical for preservation • 5-HIAA (5-hydroxy-indoleacetic acid, urine) formed by metabolism of serotonin by monoamine oxidase • Best measured by HPL (measure Creat as well) • Almost NEVER elevated without liver METS (usually 15-20% burden)
Serotonin and Carcinoids • Mid-gut carcinoids are rich in serotonin containing granules and are frequently associated with carcinoid syndrome • Foregut carcinoids (Stomach, Lungs) have few serotonin granule • Hind-gut carcinoids have very few serotonin granules Modified: AC Deacon. Ann Clin Biochem 1994:31;215-232
Chromogranin A (CgA) • Acidic, water soluble, secretory glycoprotein (ng/ml) • Stored in matrix of secretory granules of nervous & neuroendocrine cells / tumors • Cleared by prohormone convertase I (PC-1) to pancreastatin (pg/ml) • An accurate “marker” of neurocrine tumor burden and metastasis
“Pearls” on Chromogranin A (CgA) • Try and stay with the same lab (five in US) • Is very helpful when you know you have a N/E tumor. • May be elevated when there is no actual N/E tumor • Severe hypertension • Gastric acid suppression (PPI’s) • Renal insufficiency

Biomarkers • CgA levels can reflect total tumor burden (when metastatic) for both pancreatic and mid-gut (ileal) N/E tumors • Neurokinin A may be a predictor for aggressive mid-gut (ileal) tumors • Pancreastatin may be a very early marker for liver tumor activity
