New drug combo trial offers hope for Tough-to-Treat thyroid cancer

NCT ID NCT04061980

Summary

This study is testing whether two targeted cancer drugs (encorafenib and binimetinib), given with or without an immunotherapy drug (nivolumab), can help control advanced thyroid cancer that has a specific genetic change (BRAF V600 mutation) and has stopped responding to standard radioactive iodine treatment. The trial aims to see if these combinations are safe and can shrink tumors or slow their growth. It is for a small group of patients with this specific type of cancer.
