Core Tip Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NENs) frequently present with distant metastases. In the last years, a number of treatment has become available for advanced GEP-NENs and the optimal management for these patients remains to be established. While systemic medical therapies and peptide receptor radionuclide therapy represent effective options, they are usually palliative whereas liver-directed treatments often represent the only possibly curative therapy, even if not supported by prospective trials. Considering the lack of randomized trials comparing locoregional treatments in advanced GEP-NEN, clinical judgment remains key to set the most appropriate therapeutic pathway. Prospective data may lead to more personalized and optimized treatments.
