A comprehensive literature search of PUBMED, SCOPUS, and EMBASE through to December 2022 was performed to identify reports of PRRT use as neoadjuvant therapy prior to local therapies.

A total of 369 records were identified by the initial search, and 17 were included in the final analysis, comprising 179 patients treated with neoadjuvant PRRT.

Unsurprisingly, inactivating variants of these receptors have been implicated in a spectrum of reproductive phenotypes, including failure to undergo puberty, and infertility. Clinical induction of puberty in patients harbouring such variants is possible, but restoration of fertility is not always a realisable outcome, particularly for those patients suffering from primary hypogonadism. Thus, novel pharmaceuticals and/or a fundamental change in approach to treating these patients are required. The increasing wealth of data describing the effects of coding-region genetic variants on GPCR function has highlighted that the majority appear to be dysfunctional as a result of misfolding of the encoded receptor protein, which, in turn, results in impaired receptor trafficking through the secretory pathway to the cell surface. As such, these intracellularly retained receptors may be amenable to ‘rescue’ using a pharmacological chaperone (PC)-based approach. PCs are small, cell permeant molecules hypothesised to interact with misfolded intracellularly retained proteins, stabilising their folding and promoting their trafficking through the secretory pathway. In support of the use of this approach as a viable therapeutic option, it has been observed that many rescued variant GPCRs retain at least a degree of functionality when ‘rescued’ to the cell surface. In this review, we examine the GPCR PC research landscape, focussing on the rescue of inactivating variant GPCRs with important roles in the HPG axis, and describe what is known regarding the mechanisms by which PCs restore trafficking and function.

Our aim is to assess changes in TNM staging and differences in patient management between [¹⁸F]AlF-OC PET/CT and [⁶⁸Ga]Ga-DOTA-SSA PET/CT in the work-up of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) patients. Patients who underwent both [¹⁸F]AlF-OC and [⁶⁸Ga]Ga-DOTA-TATE or [⁶⁸Ga]Ga-DOTA-NOC PET/CT in our multicenter study (Pauwels et al., <i>J Nucl Med</i>.2023;63:632–638) with a NET were included for analysis.

The images were presented together with clinical information and compared with previous SSTR and [¹⁸F]FDG PET/CT imaging. After a consensus decision for patient management was recorded, the board was presented with the PET/CT images from the other SSTR tracer and a decision was made for the second tracer.
