This pilot trial studies how well telotristat etiprate works in treating participants with well differentiated neuroendocrine neoplasm that has spread to other places in the body and monitored by carbon C 11 alpha-methyltryptophan (AMT)-emission tomography (PET). Telotristat etiprate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Studying the changes within the tumor cells via AMT-PET may help doctors better understand how tumors respond to treatment with telotristat etiprate.
