New drug combo aims to boost cancer-killing power of standard thyroid treatment

NCT ID NCT05783323

Summary

This study is testing whether a drug called larotrectinib can make radioactive iodine treatment more effective for people with advanced thyroid cancer that has spread to the lungs. Participants will take larotrectinib for six months, then receive standard radioactive iodine therapy. The main goal is to see if this combination helps shrink or eliminate lung tumors better than radioactive iodine alone.
