Patient-centered Dosage of Levothyroxine
Levothyroxine is the most used thyroid hormone replacement when the thyroid gland is failing. Because dosage adjustment normally takes several months, the investigators have developed a decision support tool (DST) that predicts optimal dosage based on repeated blood samples the first 2 weeks after initiation of therapy. In this randomized …
The Safety and Feasibility of Radiofrequency Ablation to Treat Low-risk Thyroid Cancer
The goal of this clinical trial is to test radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in thyroid cancers ≤2 cm in diameter. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the feasibility of RFA use for low-risk thyroid cancers (≤2 cm)? Participants will undergo a set of pre-procedural scans of …
TRAIL Study: Feasibility and Pilot
This is a pilot study to compare two ways of managing newly identified thyroid nodules that are likely to be cancerous based on ultrasound result and which under usual care would undergo immediate biopsy. The main goals of this pilot study are 1) compare anxiety at 6 months in each …
Zanzalintinib for the Treatment of Advanced Thyroid Cancer Before Surgery
To look at the effectiveness of zanzalintinib, followed by surgery, in treating advanced thyroid cancer. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
Active Surveillance for Bethesda IV Thyroid Nodules
The traditional surgical approach for Bethesda IV thyroid nodules burdens healthcare systems and patients with costs, perioperative morbidity, and potential long-term consequences of hemithyroidectomy, including hypothyroidism (requiring lifelong thyroid hormone replacement), nerve damage, infection, voice discomfort and postoperative bleeding. Moreover, patient-reported anxiety and reduced quality of life often follow surgery, …
Improvements in Thyroid Tumor Surgery and the Prognosis, Diagnosis, Recurrence and Metastasis of Patients
The objective of this research is to investigate the clinical outcomes of modified surgical techniques such as omitting the cervical linea alba suture in transthoracic endoscopic thyroidectomy. Furthermore, the study requires the collection of normal thyroid tissues, benign and malignant thyroid tumors, and lymph nodes to further clarify the mechanisms …
A Clinical Study on the Benefits of Carbon Nanoparticles Injection Time in Patients With Thyroid Cancer.
The detection rate of thyroid cancer (PTC) has increased rapidly in recent years. Except undifferentiated cancer, surgery is still one of the most important treatments for all types of thyroid cancer, and there is a consensus to use the lobes of the gland as the minimum extent of resection. In …
Molecular Analysis for Precision Surgery in Thyroid Cancer Trial
Ideal surgical extent for differentiated thyroid cancer remains unclear. Routine use of molecular analysis in biopsy-proven thyroid cancer could provide important prognostic information to help guide extent of surgery - thyroid lobectomy versus total thyroidectomy. This is a pilot feasibility study for the use of routine molecular analysis in Bethesda …
Treatment Efficacy and Safety of Low-dose Radioiodine Ablation for Intermediate-risk Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma
Primary objective: The 3-years disease-free survival was compared between low-dose group (30 mCi) and high-dose group (100 mCi). Secondary objective: The successful remnant ablation, efficacy, 3-year progression-free survival and safety were compared between low-dose group (30 mCi) and high-dose group (100 mCi). Research Hypothesis:The 3-year disease-free survival of low-dose group …
Patient Decision Aid in Supporting Decision-Making About When to Start or Stop New Drugs, Join Clinical Trials, or Continue Active Surveillance in Patients With Medullary Thyroid Cancer and Their Caregivers
This trial develops and studies how well a patient decision aid works in supporting decision-making about when to start or stop new drugs, join clinical trials, or continue active cancer monitoring for patients with medullary thyroid cancer and their caregivers. Developing a patient decision aid may help patients with medullary …
