Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) encompass a highly heterogeneous group of neoplasms with varying prognoses and molecular alterations. Molecular profiling studies have furthered our understanding of NENs, but the majority of previous studies have focused on primary tumors and on mutational landscapes using DNA sequencing data. Here, we describe the genomic and transcriptomic landscapes of 28 metastatic NENs across different primary anatomical sites (PASs) and their potential clinical implications. Although our cohort is small, our analyses provide further insights on the molecular commonalities and distinctions between metastatic NENs of different PASs. Comparison to several reference transcriptome data sets revealed that despite considerable whole genome and transcriptome variability in NENs, the metastatic NENs are still more like each other than other cancer types. Our study also highlights the potential utility of NEN transcriptome data for molecular classification and clinical decision making.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
