Thyroid tumor

Researchers are testing a two-step radioimmunotherapy for people with medullary thyroid cancer that has come back. Participants receive a bispecific antibody followed by a radioactive peptide. The goal is to see if this targeted radiation can shrink tumors and how safe it is.

This early-stage trial is testing an oral drug called LOXO-260 in about 70 people with advanced cancers that have a specific change in the RET gene. The cancers have stopped responding to other targeted treatments. The study aims to find the safest dose and see if the drug can sh…

This study looked at the safety of the drug lenvatinib in 50 people with advanced thyroid cancer that had stopped responding to radioactive iodine treatment. Researchers tracked side effects and how often patients needed to lower their dose. They also checked whether tumors shran…

This study tested whether giving a daily mix of two types of friendly bacteria (Lactobacilli) to children at genetic risk could prevent or slow down autoimmune diseases like celiac disease, type 1 diabetes, and thyroid problems. The researchers enrolled 202 children who already h…

This study tests whether a mobile app that provides education and support before and after thyroid surgery can improve recovery and quality of life. Participants are adults having their first thyroidectomy who own a smartphone. One group gets standard care, while the other also u…

This study tested a special recovery program (ERAS) for people having thyroid surgery. The goal was to see if it could reduce pain, nausea, and time spent in the hospital compared to usual care. 143 adults took part, and the program focused on improving comfort and speeding up re…

This study compares remimazolam, a newer sedative, to the standard drug propofol for anesthesia in 92 elderly patients (ages 60-75) undergoing thyroid surgery. The goal is to see if remimazolam provides smoother induction, stable vital signs, and faster recovery with fewer compli…

This study investigates whether certain DNA variants make people more likely to develop thyroid cancer after receiving radiation therapy as a child. Researchers will compare the genetic profiles of about 30 people who developed thyroid cancer and 30 who did not, all of whom were …

This study looked at how often thyroid problems (specifically an underactive thyroid) occur in people with HIV. Researchers reviewed medical records of 154 HIV-positive adults who were treated at a French hospital between 2001 and 2012. The goal was to get a clearer picture of th…
