RESISTANCE TO SSA Mechanisms of resistance Different phosphorylation patterns Type of β-arrestins Homo/Heterodimers Antibody formation Observations In SSTR2 different phosphorylation patterns have been described over 4 threonine residues (Thr353, Thr354, Thr356, and Thr359) with octreotide and only 2 threonine residues (Thr356 and Thr359) with pasireotide. This phosphorylation is mediated by G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRK) 2 and 3, whose intracellular levels are variable. The inhibition of these enzymes results in a reduction of approximately 40% of SSTR2 phosphorylation. There are two major subtypes of β-arrestins, A and B. Replacement of SSTR2 on the cell surface depends on β-arrestin (Type B) internalization, once bound to the phosphorylated endosomal vesicle, produces rapid receptor internalization. SSTR3 and SSTR5 are also β- arrestin (Type A) dependent receptors, but their junction is less stable so the internalization is less efficient. On the contrary, SSTR1 and SSTR4 are not depending on this molecule for internalization. Different types of receptors co-exist in the same cell surface, enabling the formation of homo- and heterodimers between them, such as the heterodimerization between SSTR5 and SSTR1 Creation of antibodies against somatostatin analogs, decreasing their effectiveness.

LOCAL TREATMENTS: SURGERY AND LOCOREGIONAL TREATMENT Surgery can be curative if it reaches R0. Arterial hepatic embolization/radioembolization can be usefull in selected patients Use of those techniques depends on tumoral size, number of metastases, anatomic viability and surgeon/radiologist experience. May help in symptoms relief. Toumpanakis C, et al. Brest Pract Res Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2007

CONCLUSIONS: BUILDING ON SUCCESS Carcinoid syndrome is lead by serotonin activity and can significantly deteriorate the quality of life of patients. Treatment with SSA is effective but the symptomatology of patients resist along the treatment. There are some drugs potentially effective in carcinoid syndrome, but further research is required: involvement in antitumor effect. Telotristat is a drug which inhibits peripherally secretion of serotonin, effective in refractory carcinoid syndrome. Pending questions: Adequate dose, antitumor effect, long term efficacy and safety (TELEPATH), durability of responses, prevention of fibrosis...
