Filter by:Somatic mutations in the MAP (mitogen-activated protein) kinase pathway have been found in about 80% of papillary thyroid tumors (PTCs). The evaluation of the PTC mutational profile is crucial for the definition of the prognosis and for predicting the effects of targeted and personalized therapies. Molecular characterization by mass spectrometry (Mass ARRAY) allows the search for multiple mutations in a single experiment, in a sensitive, fast and economic way. A Mass ARRAY platform (PTC-MA) was developed, capable of identifying the presence of the most common somatic point mutations and rearrangements in PTC (Pesenti et al., Endocrine 2017). The aim of the study is to characterize the mutational profile of a large series of papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC). Tumor samples will be analyzed using our PTC-MA platform. The molecular profile of PTCs will be correlated with the clinical and prognostic characteristics of the patients.
The goal of this retrospective study is to compare the safety and efficiacy of endoscopic thyroidectomy via retro-auricular single-site approach, transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach and transareola approach.
Oxidative stress (OS) could be involved in the progression of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Indeed, thyroid differentiation genes are silenced by a mechanism controlled by NOX4-derived OS. On the other hand, TERT contributes to mitochondrial OS protection, which could increase the resistance of cancer cells to therapeutic agents. The investigators aim to address the role of OS and mitochondrial TERT in the progression and therapeutic resistance of PTC. OS and TERT subcellular localization will be investigated in 150 PTCs and correlated to the genetic and expression profile of the tumors and to the clinical and prognostic features of the patients. Mechanisms implicated in TERT mitochondrial migration and the contribution of mitochondrial TERT to tumor progression will be investigated in cancer cell lines and primary cell cultures. This study will allow to identify OS as a marker of therapeutic resistance in PTC and will open new opportunities for the development of novel treatments targeting ROS generation/TERT nuclear export.
This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, first-in-human (FIH) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary antineoplastic activity of TY-1091 administered orally in participants with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), RET-altered NSCLC and other RET-altered solid tumors.
This research is being done to determine the efficacy of selpercatinib to restore radioactive iodine (I-131) uptake and allow for I-131 treatment in people with RET fusion-positive radioiodine-refractory thyroid cancer. This research study involves the study drug selpercatinib in combination with standard of care treatments, I-131 and thyrotropin alfa (rhTSH).
This phase II study evaluates F-18 tetrafluoroborate (18F-TFB) PET/CT scan in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. Diagnostic imaging is necessary for planning treatment, monitoring therapy response, and identifying sites of recurrent or metastatic disease in differentiated thyroid cancer. 18F-TFB PET/CT may accurately detect recurrent and metastatic thyroid cancer lesions, with the potential to provide information for patient management that is better than the current standard of care imaging practices.
To evaluate the feasibility and safety of gasless transaxillary posterior endoscopic thyroidectomy (Resection of thyroid lobe and isthmus, lymph node dissection in the central area of the affected side) and open radical thyroidectomy (Resection of thyroid lobe and isthmus, lymph node dissection in the central area of the affected side) as the current standard surgical treatment mode in terms of feasibility and safety of radical thyroidectomy.
A Phase 1B/2A study will be conducted to establish safety and dose level of AMXT 1501 dicaprate in combination with IV DFMO, in cancer patients.
Increased fibroblast activation protein expression is positively correlated with the dedifferentiation and aggressiveness of thyroid cancer. Radiolabeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor therapy, also known as radioligand therapy has become a novel treatment for patients with radioactive iodine refractory thyroid cancer and disease progression after first-line treatment. However, a major problem in the therapeutic use of 177Lu-DOTA-FAPI has been its short half-life and fast rate of clearance. This study was designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose of a long-lasting radiolabeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor 177Lu-DOTA-EB-FAPI in mRAIR-TC patients with PD after TKIs treatment.
The goal of this non randomized control clinical research study is to compare the cosmetic outcomes and efficiacy of retro-auricular single-site endoscopic thyroid lobectomy and central lymph node dissection against conventional resection.
