Background: Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) and carcinomas (NECs) are a diverse group of tumors with an equally diverse biology and clinical behavior. Data on tissue-based genomic profiling of NETs exists, however, there is limited data using circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) technology. We sought out to characterize NETs via ctDNA to identify genomic alterations. Methods: 27 patients with metastatic NET/NEC with 32 total plasma samples were analyzed using Guardant360 ctDNA assay. Breakdown of NET/NEC by location: 14 pancreatic NET (pNET), 11 NEC, 1 small bowel NET, 1 lung NET. The ctDNA test detects single nucleotide variants in 54-73 genes, copy number amplifications, fusions, and indels in selected genes. Results: Of the 27 patients, 19 (70%) had a detectable genomic alteration. The detectable (non-synonymous) alterations are as follows: TP53 (n = 14, 70%), NF1 (n = 8, 40%), EGFR (n = 5, 25%), BRCA2 (n = 4, 20%), KRAS (n = 4, 20%), ARID1A (n = 3, 15%), CDK6 (n = 3, 15%), ALK (n = 3, 15%), MET (n = 2, 10%), PTEN (n = 2, 10%), BRAF (n = 2, 10%), MTOR (n = 2, 10%) AKT1 (n = 1), BRCA1 (n = 1), CCND2 (n = 1), CCNE1 (n = 1), CTNNB1 (n = 1), ESR1 (n = 1), FGFR2 (n = 1), HRAS (n = 1), IDH1 (n = 1), KIT (n = 1), MYC (n = 1), NOTCH1 (n = 1), NRAS (n = 1), PDGFRA (n = 1), RAF1 (n = 1), RB1 (n = 1), SMAD4 (n = 1), STK11 (n = 1), TSC1 (n = 1), ERBB2 (n = 1), PIK3CA (n = 1). Conclusions: This experience highlights the feasibility of ctDNA to help identify genomic alterations in this patient population. Further studies incorporating ctDNA testing in this patient population are warranted.
