Background and Objectives: Esthesioneuroblastoma is a rare nasal neoplasm which usually originates from the olfactory neuroepithelium in the upper portion of the nasal cavity adjacent to the cribriform plate.[1] [2] [3] Our objectives were to analyze multicenter clinical data from esthesioneuroblastoma patients to inform on outcomes and to identify novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers.

Material and Methods: For this multicenter analysis we included clinical data from 113 esthesioneuroblastoma patients (54 males; mean age: 49.4 years) from various centers in the United States and Europe, in particular data on clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment and clinical outcomes. We also analyzed immunohistochemical data (SSTR2) and imaging data (68Ga-DOTA-TOC PET-CT-scanning and 68Ga-DOTA-TOC PET-MRI-scanning) where available to inform about diagnostic and prognostic potential. Statistical testing was performed in SPSS version 24.

Results: At initial presentation patients complained of nasal obstruction (77.4%), rhinorrhea (40.7%), epistaxis (39%), anosmia (30%), headache (13.8%), epiphora (5%), and diplopia (1.3%). With regard to age at presentation, we did not observe a bimodal distribution, but a peak between 37 and 58 years of age. The most useful poor prognostic indicators were bony skull base involvement and dural infiltration, each associated with significantly worse outcomes (p = 0.024 and p < 0.001, respectively). A total of 86.6% of patients received adjuvant radiotherapy and had a significantly improved survival (p = 0.012). Mean follow-up was 64.7 (±51.6) months. 5-year overall survival was 88.2%. The most common location for recurrent/residual disease was the neck, followed by dura/brain. 83% of samples stained positive for SSTR2 and expression was associated with 68Ga-DOTA-TOC uptake both in 68Ga-DOTA-TOC PET-CT-scanning and 68Ga-DOTA-TOC PET-MRI-scanning.

Conclusion: Less than a third of esthesioneuroblastoma patients present with anosmia. Our analysis also shows that the most significant prognostic indicators in our set of samples are bony skull base involvement and dural infiltration rather than stage based on commonly used staging systems. The high rate of expression of Somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2) with 68Ga-DOTA-TOC uptake in both 68Ga-DOTA-TOC PET-CT-scans and 68Ga-DOTA-TOC PET-MRI-scans shows the enormous translational potential of this marker with regard to imaging and novel targeted therapies.
