点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Patients with advanced neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC) have one of the poorest cancer outcomes. So far, no randomised trials have been done to confirm NEC treatment. Current NEC chemotherapy is etoposide & carboplatin (EC), based on lung cancer trials. The NABNEC study will use a new drug, nab-paclitaxel, with carboplatin or EC, collect PET scan, tumour & blood samples result to help understand how treatment works and to ultimately improve NEC patients’ health and progress future research.
