Abstract Text Treatment of metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pancNETs), particularly grade 2 (G2) and grade 3 (G3), often presents a dilemma in choosing from multiple similarly efficacious therapies. Data on targeted therapies for these tumor types is limited, and this report presents BRAF-targeted therapy as a therapeutic option for metastatic pancNET G3.This is a case report of a patient with G3 pancNET metastatic to the liver, lung, lymph node, and scalp (soft tissue) treated with dabrafenib/trametinib (D/T) in the presence of a BRAF V600E mutation detected in tumor tissue.This patient has demonstrated an ongoing partial response to therapy at all involved sites for nearly 15 months with minimal side effects attributable to D/T.Dabrafenib/trametinib therapy for BRAF-mutated metastatic pancNETs provides a novel treatment option and, especially in the G3 setting, should be considered a first-line option. Tumor testing for actionable mutations should be undertaken at the time of diagnosis and/or progression to identify novel therapeutic avenues in these rare tumors.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
