ABOUT Neuroendocrine cancers can sometimes produce hormones that cause symptoms affecting daily life, including flushing, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, changes in blood sugar, fatigue, and other quality-of-life concerns. Hormones can have a profound impact on how you feel and function, and in neuroendocrine cancer they can affect far more than tumor growth alone. Join us for this educational session with Jaydira Del Rivero, a medical oncologist and endocrinologist at the National Cancer Institute, as we explore the "endocrine" side of neuroendocrine cancer and its impact on daily life. Building on her January 2026 overview of functional neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), Dr. Del Rivero will discuss common hormone-related issues that patients may encounter throughout their cancer journey. Topics will include: Thyroid disorders and their symptoms Hormone-related side effects associated with immunotherapy Testosterone replacement and other hormone replacement therapies, including when they may be appropriate and when they may not What patients should know about GLP-1 medications Practical considerations for recognizing and managing hormone-related symptoms Whether you are living with a functional or nonfunctional NET, this session will provide practical knowledge to help you better understand your symptoms, optimize quality of life, and have informed conversations with your healthcare team.

We made a promise to him that we would always honor his legacy and give back to the community that fought so hard to give him 8 extra years with us. As many of you know, we put together a lacrosse team every year to compete in the Vail Shootout named after Craig. It is made up of friends and teammates that are united by the legacy of Craig and the passion for the game of lacrosse. What began as a tribute to our father has grown into a powerful tradition. Each year, players from across the country come together to compete at the highest level while honoring Craig’s memory and supporting a cause that affects more than 250,000 families in the United States alone. The team has quickly become one of the top competitors in the tournament: 2024: Third place finish 2025: Tournament champions 2026: Competing again with a renewed mission to raise awareness and funds But beyond the competition, the team’s greatest goal is simple: use the platform of lacrosse to make a meaningful impact for families facing cancer. This year, we are honored to take it one step further and dedicate our efforts to supporting the Neuroendocrine Cancer Foundation, helping expand awareness, education, and support for families affected by this complex and uncommon disease. Why We're Supporting the Neuroendocrine Cancer Foundation Neuroendocrine Cancer—including neuroendocrine tumors—is a complex and uncommon disease that can be difficult to diagnose and treat.

<< Go back to the Podcast page EPISODE 54 - NEN Treatments: Focus on Cabozantinib Download a Transcript of this Episode >>> ABOUT THIS EPISODE Since its FDA approval on March 26, 2025, cabozantinib has emerged as the newest treatment option for NET patients—adding another valuable tool to the treatment toolbox. It’s become a hot topic in support groups and forums, with many patients wondering what to expect. In this episode, Fox Chase Cancer Center medical oncologist Dr. Namrata (“Neena”) Vijayvergia answers the most frequently asked questions about cabozantinib. She explains how it works, how it differs from other therapies, what patients should know about dosing and side effects, and shares insights on a new clinical trial exploring the next generation of cabozantinib. TOP TEN QUESTIONS What is cabozantinib? Is it considered chemotherapy? How does cabozantinib work? What do we mean by “targeted therapies”? Who is cabozantinib typically recommended for? When in someone’s NET journey do you consider starting it? Why might a patient take cabozantinib instead of other treatment options? Is this a “last resort” treatment option? Does it limit future choices or “burn any bridges”? What are the most common side effects? Will I look like a cancer patient? Will my hair fall out? How might I feel while taking it—can most people keep working and doing their usual activities? Do common side effects tend to develop or get worse over time, or pretty much stay the same? What should patients watch out for or monitor while taking this medication? What should patients know about dosing? Is there a preferred starting dose or an “optimal” dose? If I tolerate a lower dose, should I go to a higher dose? What happens if cabozantinib doesn’t work for me? What other treatments might be available? I’ve heard about a drug called “Zanza,” the STELLAR-311 trial. What is it, and how does it fit into the current treatment landscape? What practical tips or “tricks of the trade” do you share with patients who may start this medication? Bonus: What’s on the horizon in NET research or treatment that you’re most excited about?
