First trial launches to attack deadly thyroid cancer with drug and radiation double punch

NCT ID NCT03975231

Summary

This early-stage trial is testing a new combination treatment for a rare and very aggressive form of thyroid cancer. It combines two targeted drugs (dabrafenib and trametinib) with a precise form of radiation therapy. The main goal is to find the safest dose of this combination and see if it can help control the cancer in patients whose tumors have a specific genetic change (BRAF mutation).
