A plasma protein biomarker strategy for detection of small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors

Conclusion: This interim analysis demonstrate that a multi-biomarker/machine learning strategy improve diagnostic accuracy of patients with SI-NET at the time of diagnosis, especially in patients with normal CgA levels. The results indicate that this multi-biomarker strategy can be useful for early detection of SI-NETs at presentation and conceivably detect recurrence after radical primary resection.
