New drug combo offers hope for hard-to-treat thyroid cancer
NCT ID NCT04061980
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
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 BRAF gene mutation will receive the drug combination to see if it is safe and effective. The goal is to find a new treatment option for this difficult-to-treat cancer.
