Phase II Trial of Pembrolizumab in Metastatic or Locally Advanced Anaplastic/Undifferentiated Thyroid Cancer
This is a single-arm, open-label trial designed to evaluate the activity of pembrolizumab therapy in anaplastic thyroid cancer in patients with no curative alternative therapy. Pembrolizumab (Keytruda-Merck) 200 mg, given IV every 3 weeks, until evidence of progression, intolerance of treatment, withdrawal of consent or death
A Study of Avutometinib and Defactinib in People With Thyroid Cancer
The researchers are doing this study to find out if the combination of avutometinib and defactinib is an effective treatment for RAF dimer-driven radioiodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer or anaplastic thyroid cancer. The researchers will also test whether avutometinib and defactinib is a safe treatment that causes few or mild side …
Systematic Radioiodine Administration Versus Decision of Radioiodine Treatment Guided by a Post-operative Work-up
This trial is comparing two strategies in intermediate-risk differentiated thyroid cancer patients: Systematic radioiodine administration versus decision of radioiodine treatment guided by a post-operative work-up based on serum Tg values and diagnostic RAI scintigraphy
Focus on Values to Stimulate Shared Decisions
Most patients with non-medullary thyroid carcinoma (TC) achieve remission after primary treatment. Nonetheless, 30% develop recurrent disease and/or distant metastases resulting in worse survival. Patients with low- and intermediate-risk, whilst having a good prognosis, generally undergo similar primary treatment as those with a high-risk disease and face the risk of …
Lateral Cervical Node Dissection in Differentiated Thyroid Cancer.
The objective of this study is to compare shoulder and neck morbidity and the effectiveness of cervical lateral nodal dissection in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer and lateral metastases between the anterior and posterior approaches to the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM)
Surgery for Thyroid Cancer With or Without Autofluorescence to Prevent Hypoparathyroidism
The study aims to test if use of autofluorescence imaging (AF) reduces the risk of developing hypoparathyroidism (hypoPT) following surgery for thyroid cancer, either total thyroidectomy (TT) or completion hemithyroidectomy (cHT).
Lesion Dosimetry With Iodine-124 in Metastatic Thyroid Carcinoma
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new diagnostic imaging test, positron emission tomography (PET), with a different radioactive form of iodine called iodine-124. This form is able to accurately measure the amount of radioactive iodine uptake in the cancer. If the new test determines sufficient radioiodine uptake …
Assessing Benefits of Near Infrared Autofluorescence (NIRAF) Detection for Identifying Parathyroid Glands During Total Thyroidectomy
This study will see if the use of near infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) detection with a 'Parathyroid Eye (PTeye)' for identifying parathyroid glands (PGs) during total thyroidectomy (TTx) is better than surgeon's detection alone. It compares risk, benefits and outcomes in TTx patients where NIRAF detection with PTeye for parathyroid identification …
Larotrectinib to Enhance RAI Avidity in Differentiated Thyroid Cancer
Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common form of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). The traditional first line treatment for patients with advanced DTC after surgical resection is radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy. However, less than a quarter of patients with lung metastases will achieve a complete response to RAI therapy, …
Study of Cemiplimab Combined With Dabrafenib and Trametinib in People With Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer
This study is being done to see if adding the study drug, cemiplimab, to the standard therapy with dabrafenib and trametinib is an effective treatment against anaplastic thyroid cancer.
