Prescribing information

Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are a group of neoplasms that originate in secretory cells known as neuroendocrine cells, which are distributed throughout the body.1,2 These can be associated with debilitating symptoms and may sometimes severely compromise a patient’s overall health.3

Understand the fundamentals of NETs, exploring the nature of these tumours, their classification and grading and diagnosis and treatment. Using this background knowledge will allow you to further your understanding of gasteroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEP-NETs).
