First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This early-phase trial tested a combination of two drugs (vemurafenib and copanlisib) in 8 people with advanced thyroid cancer that had stopped responding to standard radioiodine therapy. The goal was to see if the drug combo could make the cancer sensitive to radioiodine again, potentially shrinking tumors. The study focused on finding safe doses and checking for side effects.
