Advanced/Metastatic Medullary Thyroid Cancer (MTC) Clinical Trial
Official title:
European, Observational, Prospective Study to Evaluate the Benefit/Risk of Vandetanib in RET Mutation Negative and Positive Patients With Symptomatic, Aggressive, Sporadic, Unresectable, Locally Advanced/Metastatic Medullary Thyroid Cancer
This is a European multinational, multicenter, non-interventional (observational) and prospective study. It is carried on to confirm in real life conditions the benefit/risk of vandetanib (CAPRELSA™) 300 mg, both in RET negative and RET positive patients with symptomatic, aggressive, sporadic, unresectable, locally advanced/metastatic MTC.
This is a multinational, multicenter, non-interventional (observational) and prospective study. European countries where vandetanib is on the market will participate in the study. This study is being conducted to fulfil the specific obligation post-authorisation measure for the conditional marketing authorisation. It is carried on to confirm in real life conditions the benefit/risk of vandetanib (CAPRELSA™) 300 mg, both in RET negative and RET positive patients with symptomatic, aggressive, sporadic, unresectable, locally advanced/metastatic MTC. The clinical benefit of vandetanib (CAPRELSA™) 300 mg has previously been established in a clinical trial (Study 58) on the basis of a clinically and statistically significant advantage in progression free survival (PFS) which was supported by a high response rate and substantial duration of response. ;
