Urine test could revolutionize thyroid cancer Follow-Up
NCT ID NCT07532356
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to improve how doctors predict and monitor thyroid cancer by combining genetic testing of tumors with protein analysis from urine samples. Researchers will follow 100 newly diagnosed thyroid cancer patients to see if these markers can detect early signs of recurrence or spread better than current methods. The goal is to create a more precise and non-invasive way to personalize treatment and follow-up care.

Who is studied
Prospectively initiating enroll 100 newly diagnosed Differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) patients undergoing surgery using standardized SOPs. Perform fresh-tissue next-generation sequencing (NGS) using a thyroid cancer-specific gene fusion/mutation panel. Collect paired urine samples preoperatively and at postoperative status according to a harmonized sampling schedule.
