Response to Neoadjuvant Treatment in Locally Advanced Thyroid Cancer
This multicenter observational study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy in patients with locally advanced thyroid cancer, focusing on imaging, biochemical, and pathological responses, as well as short-term surgical outcomes and long-term prognosis.
Assessing Patient Satisfaction and Confidence After Use of Educational Video to Augment Surgical Consent for Thyroid Surgery
This study looks at how a short educational video can help people better understand thyroid surgery. Patients who have thyroid nodules and need surgery will be part of the study. Some patients will get the usual information from their doctor, while others will also watch a video that explains the …
A Study of AL2846 Capsule Versus Placebo in the Treatment of Advanced Radioiodine-Refractory Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma
This study aims to demonstrate that, in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic iodine - refractory differentiated thyroid cancer who have failed previous VEGFR - targeted therapy, AL2846 can significantly prolong progression - free survival (PFS) compared with placebo.
Nasal Steam Therapy for Post-extubation Respiratory Events
The effect of symptom improvement of nasal steam strategy compared to routine management strategy for upper respiratory symptoms occurring after endotracheal intubation in patients aged 19 years or older who underwent surgical removal under anesthesia requiring endotracheal intubation was evaluated by the difference in the results of Wisconsin Upper Respiratory …
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 …
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, …
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 …
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 …
XL092 and Cemiplimab in BRAF WT Thyroid Cancer
This multicenter study examines the safety and feasibility of the combination of neoadjuvant XL092 and cemiplimab prior to surgical resection in participants with wild-type (WT) anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) that has a BRAF mutation (BRAF V600E).
Prophylactic Radiotherapy Optimization for Enhanced Thyroid Function Protection in NPC
This study is a multicenter, non-inferiority, open-label, randomized controlled Phase III clinical trial. It aims to compare the efficacy of modified delineation radiotherapy (experimental group) versus standard delineation radiotherapy (control group) in the prophylactic irradiation of neck lymphatic drainage areas III/IVa in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The study evaluates the incidence of …
