Evaluation of an Anxiety Reduction Tool During Thyroid Biopsies
Patients undergoing thyroid biopsy under local anesthetic will be asked to fill out a questionnaire that evaluates their anxiety level before and after their procedure. Patients will be randomly assigned to either use an anxiety reducing tool (stress balls in each hand) to take their mind off the procedure or …
Thyroid Artery Embolization for the Treatment of Compressive Goiters.
Very few studies have investigated TAE as a treatment for goiter with compressive symptoms. What is the efficacy and safety of TAE for the treatment of compressive goiters in a population ineligible for or refusing standard therapy? This is a prospective interventional cohort study that will allow us to standardize …
MHB018A Treatment in Patients With Active Thyroid Eye Disease
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of MHB018A, a humanized anti-IGF1R antibody, administered q4W for 6 months, in comparison to placebo, in the treatment of participants suffering from active TED.
Study of Anlotinib in Patients With Advanced Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma
This is a real world study aiming to observe the efficacy and safety of Anlotinib capsules in patients with advanced medullary thyroid carcinoma, and to summarize the treatment experience in a broad population of patients.
Combination Radiotherapy and Radiopharmaceutical Therapy Treatment Planning for Thyroid Cancer
The goal of this study is to evaluate combined radioactive iodine (RAI, 131-I) and external beam radiotherapy (XRT) to optimize the radiation dose delivered to treat well differentiated thyroid cancers (DTC) with iodine-avid metastases. The investigators hypothesize that precise dosimetric planning will permit this combined RAI-XRT radiotherapeutic approach to be …
The Impact of Immersive Virtual Reality Training in Thyroid Surgery
Up to this date, there have been no reports on virtual reality (VR) training in thyroid surgery. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of VR training in residents' education. Investigators intend to include general surgery residents in the trial, subgrouped in a VR training group and …

The study is comprised of two cohorts. Cohort 1 will examine pharmacokinetics of K9 in 3 healthy volunteers over 24 hours. This cohort has been completed. Cohort 2 will involve up to 10 patients with TED. Patients will receive oral K9 BID for up to 24 weeks and will be …
Efficacy of Pembrolizumab and Lenvatinib in Patients With Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer
This pilot phase 2 study evaluate the effectiveness and safety of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib in patients with anaplastic thyroid cancer. Patients with anaplastic thyroid cancer who are treatment-naive (BRAF-negative) and who were previously treated with chemptherapy or targeted therapy are scheduled to undergo pembrolizumab and lenvatinib and evaluate the outcomes …
Efficacy of Thyroid Hormone Replacement for Secondary Hypothyroidism Following Intracerebral Hemorrhage
Low levels of serum triiodothyronine (T3) thyroid hormones (T4) are a strong predictor of mortality and poor prognosis in critical care patients. Few reports, however, have focused on neurocritical patients. Patients with severe neurological diseases often experience more complications and exhibit higher mortality rates, and many studies have provided evidence …
Selpercatinib Pre-RAI in Patients With RET Fusion Thyroid Cancer (RAISE)
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, …
