Educate & Empower

This has been a huge year for the NET community! NET research has been accelerating, creating many options for treatments. This full day event offers an opportunity to hear several experts all in one location and learn about the latest treatment options for patients. Join LACNETS at UCLA's Covel Commons for a full day event featuring renowned Neuroendocrine Tumor (NET) specialists from across the country. Our theme for this year is "Educate, Empower and Encourage."

 

EDUCATE: Educational sessions include several presentations on PRRT (Lutathera®) as well as NETSPOT® GA-68 Scan, Symptom Management, Carcinoid Syndrome, Surgery, Liver-directed Treatments and Clinical Trials. Learn from the physician panel as they discuss NET case studies to show how they make treatment sequencing decisions. Hear from a panel of patients who have received PRRT treatment.

 

EMPOWER & ENCOURAGE: This conference allows patients and caregivers to connect with other NET patients and caregivers during breaks and the post-conference reception.  It also provides a rare opportunity to speak with physicians and experts directly through Q&A sessions and lunch round-table discussions.
