ABOUT THIS EPISODE Carcinoid syndrome can be confusing and often difficult to diagnose. In this episode, Dr. Joseph Dillon, Endocrinologist and Director of the University of Iowa Neuroendocrine Multidisciplinary Tumor Clinic, explains what carcinoid syndrome is, how it's diagnosed, and the various ways it can be treated. He highlights key symptoms, testing, and treatment approaches—including somatostatin analogs and telotristat—and discusses how to distinguish carcinoid syndrome from other causes of diarrhea and flushing.In the second half of the episode, Dr. Dillon shares insights from his separate line of research on GLP-1 receptor agonist weight-loss drugs (such as Ozempic® and Mounjaro®) and their potential implications for neuroendocrine tumor patients. (Note: this topic is unrelated to carcinoid syndrome.)TOP TEN QUESTIONS What is carcinoid syndrome? Who is affected by carcinoid syndrome? How does someone know if they have carcinoid syndrome? What are the tests for carcinoid syndrome? How is carcinoid syndrome distinguished from other causes of my symptoms? *Could the tests be negative, but someone can still have carcinoid syndrome?Can someone have no evidence of neuroendocrine tumors and still have carcinoid syndrome?For those who have carcinoid syndrome, what additional tests should they have?Why should carcinoid syndrome be treated? What are the possible issues if it is not treated?How is carcinoid syndrome treated? *What is on the horizon for carcinoid syndrome treatment?Can carcinoid syndrome be prevented or detected early? Is there anything people can do to prevent or lessen carcinoid syndrome symptoms? Are there any factors that worsen carcinoid syndrome, such as age, weight or other diseases? You recently published a study discussing the possible risks of using certain weight loss drugs in people with neuroendocrine cancer. Could you tell us more about this study? What was the drug, and what did you find? What does it mean? What do you want the NET patient community to understand about your recent findings?ABOUT DR. JOSEPH DILLON Dr. Dillon is a Professor of Medicine in the Division of Endocrinology at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. He directs the University of Iowa Neuroendocrine Multidisciplinary Tumor Clinic. This was the first and only US NET Clinic to be recognized as a Center of Excellence by the European NET Society. He is also the Director of the PheoPara Alliance Center of Excellence at University of Iowa.  His clinical practice is entirely focused on the care of people with neuroendocrine tumors, both carcinoid type and paraganglioma. He has participated in clinical trials and publications related to diagnostic and therapeutic nuclear agents and drug therapies in this population. Prior to focusing on NET he made important discoveries in the field of GLP-1 which are now becoming of importance to NET patients taking popular weight loss drugs.For more information, visit NCF.net/podcast/49For more information, visit NCF.net.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEDLL3 is emerging as a promising new target for neuroendocrine cancers. In this episode, Dr. Rohit Thummalapalli, medical oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, explains what DLL3 is, how it works, who might benefit, and what current clinical trials are teaching us. He breaks down the science, treatment options, and future directions in a way that is clear, approachable, and designed to help patients and families better understand this developing area of care.TOP TEN QUESTIONS Understanding the Basics1. What is immunotherapy? How does immunotherapy work?2. What is DLL3? How does it work in the context of neuroendocrine cancer?3. How is DLL-targeted therapy similar to or different from other types of immunotherapy? Is there evidence that one works better than another?Indications, Use, Access & Availability4. When is DLL3 used in neuroendocrine cancers? What types of neuroendocrine cancer might express DLL3?How does someone know if this is a potential treatment option for them?At what point in a patient's treatment journey might DLL3 be considered?How and where DLL3 is available for neuroendocrine cancer patients? What are other ways, if any, to access DLL3?Testing for DLL3 Expression5. How does someone find out if their tumors express DLL3 receptors? How & where is DLL3 expression tested? It it tested through tissue samples, imaging, or something else?Is there a minimal level of DLL3 expression that is required to receive the treatment? (Does the threshold vary by trial?)Does the level of DLL3 expression differ by institution? Does the level of DLL3 expression predict how well someone might respond to treatment?Can the tumor expression of DLL3 vary from tumor to tumor? Can it vary over time, meaning can tumors gain or lose expression?Do you measure the DLL3 expression following treatment?Treatment Considerations6. How effective is DLL3-targeted therapy in neuroendocrine cancers? What is the goal of treatment with DLL3 – shrinkage, stabilization, symptom relief? How long is it expected to work? How do you measure the response to DLL3 treatment? 7. Can DLL3 be combined with other therapies? Decision-Making and Patient Counseling8. How do you decide when to offer DLL3 for someone with neuroendocrine cancer? What factors or prior treatments might make someone ineligible for DLL3 therapy?Could receiving DLL3 exclude a patient from other treatments or clinical trials?9. How do you counsel patients who are considering DLL3?  What should they know about how the treatment is given, possible side effects, and what's known (or unknown) about long-term safety?What should one expect in terms of frequency of visits, hospitalization and side effects?Can someone still work while receiving DLL3?Looking Ahead10. What are the key questions you hope to answer about DLL3 in the next year? What do you hope to learn over the next 3 to 5 years?ABOUT DR. ROHIT THUMMALAPALLI Rohit Thummalapalli is a gastrointestinal medical oncologist and assistant attending physician at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center specializing in clinical care and research in patients with neuroendocrine and biliary tract cancers.

On today's episode of The Candice Malcolm Show, guest host Kris Sims covers Pierre Poilievre's landslide byelection win in Battle River–Crowfoot, where the Conservative leader secured more than 80% of the vote. Kris urged Poilievre to oppose the ban on gas and diesel vehicles and to fight the industrial carbon tax. Kris is joined by Christine Van Geyn, Litigation Director of the Canadian Constitution Foundation, to examine how Canadians' freedoms are increasingly under attack in the name of “safety.” They discuss Nova Scotia's sweeping forest closures and massive fines for simply walking in the woods — a policy the CCF is challenging in court — and how government overreach chills free expression. Kris and Christine also highlight the disturbing trend of municipalities cancelling permits for Christian worship events. They point to the case of Sean Feucht, an American worship leader who has been coming to Canada for two decades without issue, suddenly finding his events targeted and shut down by local governments. Cities across the country have either pulled his permits or denied them outright, often citing vague safety concerns or labelling him too controversial. Christine warns that this is a clear example of censorship-by-bureaucracy, where politicians and officials hide behind process to silence voices they don't like. She stresses that freedom of religion and freedom of expression apply to all Canadians, and that governments should not be allowed to discriminate against speech or worship just because it may offend some people. They also discuss Christine's new children's book, Maple's Garden, which teaches kids about free expression and why it is the foundation of every other liberty we enjoy. As Christine explains, without the ability to speak freely and gather peacefully, Canadians lose the most powerful tool they have to hold government accountable. Learn more about your ad choices.

The nonprofit world is changing FAST - and the way we fundraise, build teams, and connect with communities is being rewritten in real time. If you've been feeling the tension between keeping your nonprofit afloat today and preparing for tomorrow, this episode is a must-listen. In this solo episode, Maria Rio dives into five powerful forces shaping the future of the nonprofit sector and lays out what organizations might look like by 2035. From workforce shifts and AI adoption to government instability and DEI backlash, Maria doesn't sugarcoat the challenges but she also shares smart ways small nonprofits can stay resilient, ethical, and effective through it all. The Future of Nonprofit Organizations: The Highlights The nonprofit workforce is already in crisis....and it's getting worse. Hiring and retention are major hurdles, with salary competition, burnout, and tight budgets making it hard to maintain strong teams. By 2035, nonprofits may rely more heavily on fractional staff and consultants, while in-house roles shrink to essential functions. Fundraising will rely even more on the ultra-wealthy. Donor concentration is increasing. Fewer donors are giving more, and donor-advised funds (DAFs) hold billions in untapped potential. While this creates big opportunities, it also makes funding riskier. A single major donor changing course could disrupt an entire budget. AI is transforming how nonprofits work, but not always for the better. From grant writing to stewardship emails, nonprofits are embracing AI. But too much automation risks alienating donors and devaluing relationships. Stewardship that feels “too perfect” may be seen as inauthentic, and relational fundraisers will become even more critical. Government funding is becoming unreliable and politicized. Nonprofits are facing freezes, layoffs, and rising scrutiny—especially if they advocate for equity. Some governments are threatening charitable status based on political alignment, putting advocacy-focused organizations at serious risk. DEI and CCF efforts are facing backlash but they're not going away. While many staff support Community-Centric Fundraising (CCF) and DEI, boards are hesitant or outright opposed. The result? Tension, watered-down messaging, and even lawsuits. But Maria sees a continued rise in CCF adoption, especially among younger, justice-focused fundraisers. 

In this week's episode, we are speaking with Tim Hofmann,  a certified dog trainer working with the Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF), running the Scat Detection Dog program. Since 2018, Tim has been leading the scat detection dog project for CCR where his expertise extends to field projects across Namibia and Angola, where he works with his dogs to detect and conserve rare wildlife species, like cheetahs and African wild dogs.Tim also holds a master's degree in Nature Conservation Biology and is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in wildlife sciences which very much comes into play with his work at CCF.  Tim is passionate about innovative wildlife conservation approaches, and his work focuses on the intersection of dog training and conservation biology.What a dream to be out in some of the most beautiful landscapes in the world, with an amazing and sweet dog, all the while in support of wildlife conservation. And many of you will recognize CCF from a previous episode where we spoke with Dr. Laurie Marker-the Executive Director of the Cheetah Conservation Fund, titled The Cheetahs Longest Race.We are pretty sure you're gonna think this is one of the coolest jobs out there! What a dream job! Thanks so much to Tim and CCF and thanks for listening! Lots of Love.
