Differentiated thyroid carcinoma

This phase 3 study tests whether two targeted cancer pills, dabrafenib and trametinib, can help people with advanced thyroid cancer that has a specific gene change (BRAF V600E) and no longer responds to radioactive iodine. About 153 adults who have already tried one or two other …

This phase 2 trial tests a combination of the immunotherapy drug PDR001 with either trametinib or dabrafenib in 19 patients with thyroid cancer that no longer responds to radioiodine treatment. The goal is to see if the combination can shrink tumors. The study is active but no lo…

This early-phase trial tests whether giving advanced thyroid cancer patients a personalized mix of already-approved drugs, chosen based on their tumor's genetic profile, is feasible and safe. Ten patients with no other treatment options will receive individualized drug combinatio…

This early-stage trial tests two experimental pills (PF-07799544 and PF-07799933) taken twice daily at home by adults with advanced solid tumors that have a specific gene change called BRAF V600. The study aims to find safe doses and see if the drugs can shrink tumors. About 124 …

This long-term extension study offers continued access to several cancer drugs—including cabozantinib, atezolizumab, and nivolumab—for up to 5,000 patients who benefited from them in earlier Exelixis-sponsored trials. The study focuses on monitoring safety and ongoing clinical be…

This phase II trial tests a combination of three drugs—cabozantinib, nivolumab, and ipilimumab—in 11 patients with advanced thyroid cancer that no longer responds to radioactive iodine or prior targeted therapy. The goal is to see if this mix can shrink tumors or stop them from g…

This study monitors 453 patients with advanced thyroid cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and does not respond to radioactive iodine. All patients are taking the drug sorafenib (Nexavar) as part of their normal care. Researchers are tracking side effects and how long patien…

This early-phase trial tests the safety of combining two cancer drugs, nivolumab and cabozantinib, in people with HIV who have advanced solid tumors. Only 8 participants were enrolled. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and can shrink or stabilize tumors.

This study tests whether using I-124 PET/CT scans can help doctors decide which thyroid cancer patients truly need radioiodine ablation therapy. About 340 adults with newly diagnosed differentiated thyroid cancer will be assigned to either standard care or I-124-guided care. The …

This study looks at whether low-risk thyroid cancer patients need radioactive iodine treatment after having their thyroid removed. About 504 participants are randomly assigned to receive either a standard dose of radio-iodine or no radio-iodine at all. The goal is to see if skipp…

This study tests whether two targeted drugs (encorafenib and binimetinib) with or without an immunotherapy drug (nivolumab) can shrink or slow advanced thyroid cancer that has spread and no longer responds to standard radioactive iodine treatment. About 24 adults with a specific …

This study tests a minimally invasive procedure called radiofrequency to treat thyroid cancer that has spread to lymph nodes in the neck. It involves 14 adults who have already had surgery and radioactive iodine therapy. The goal is to see if the heat-based treatment can shrink o…

This study tests whether the drug cabozantinib can slow tumor growth in people with advanced thyroid cancer that no longer responds to standard treatments like radioiodine or other targeted therapies. About 187 participants will receive either cabozantinib or a placebo pill. The …

This study is testing whether substances found in urine can help doctors monitor thyroid cancer after treatment. Researchers are collecting urine samples from 103 people who had their thyroid removed and/or radioactive iodine therapy. They are looking for specific proteins in the…

This study looks at women with thyroid cancer who get a radioactive iodine whole body scan after thyroid removal. Researchers want to see if the way patients are prepared for the scan—either by stopping thyroid hormone or using a special injection—affects how much iodine is taken…
