Filter by:A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with radioiodine-refractory thyroid carcinoma (RRTC) who underwent radioactive 125I seed implantation combined with anlotinib from January 2019 to October 2024 at Jiangxi Cancer Hospital. Data on tumor size changes before and after treatment, serological tests (including serum TG, TgAb, CTn, CEA, etc.), changes in patients' pain scores, and side effects were collected to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of this therapy.
A retrospective analysis was conducted on RAIR-DTC patients who underwent radioactive 125I seed implantation from January 2015 to February 2022 at Jiangxi Cancer Hospital. Prescription dose: 80~120 Gy. All cases were followed up at 1, 3, and 5 months postoperatively to monitor changes in tumor size, serum thyroglobulin (Tg), and serum anti-thyroglobulin antibody levels in thyrotropin-inhibited states, pain scores, and postoperative adverse reactions. The data were processed and analyzed using IBM SPSS 26.0. Pairwise comparisons were conducted using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and a p-value of less than 0.05 indicated statistical significance.
This pilot phase 2 study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of the Rechallenge concept in patients with BRAF-positive anaplastic thyroid cancer after progression on anti-BRAF therapy. Patients with BRAF-positive anaplastic thyroid cancer who were previously treated with dabrafenib and trametinib (with a clinical or objective response at the start of treatment) and later with tumor progression during anti-BRAF therapy and subsequent lines of chemotherapy are scheduled to undergo targeted therapy (repeated administration of dabrafenib and trametinib in standard doses) and evaluate the outcomes according to the primary and secondary endpoints.
ST-1898, a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has demonstrated strong inhibitory activity for VEGFR2, c-MET, AXL, PDGFRA, RET, KIT, etc. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ST-1898 tablets in patients with locally advanced or metastatic RAIR-DTC after failure of at least first-line TKI systemic therapy. All subjects will receive ST-1898 180 mg orally once daily until disease progression or intolerable toxicity.
Multiple clinical equipoises exist for the management of thyroid cancers. Shared decision-making (SDM) process where patients are supported to consider options, to achieve informed preferences with their clinicians have been recommended to improve patients' satisfaction and their overall quality of life. However, SDM can be difficult to achieve in our standard clinical encounters due to clinician's lack of confidence and time limitation to elicit patient's concerns and preferences. PCI as a decision-making support tool has shown to enhances clinician's awareness of patient's needs and allows for a more effective communication while the consultation time is unaffected. The successful development, testing and implementation of a PCI-TC could improve patient satisfaction, clinical efficiency and ensure that unmet need is appropriately addressed. This study will support the development of PCI-TC to better understand the wide-ranging needs of our patients and to improve the SDM process in the thyroid cancer management pathway.
1. To evaluate the clinical outcomes of ultrasound-guided thermal ablation and thyroid surgery for the treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma; 2. To develop and validate a artificial intelligence model to predict the outcomes of ultrasound-guided thermal ablation in the treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma;
This is a single-arm, monocentric, phase II trial, enrolling patients with histological diagnosis of collecting duct carcinoma and renal medullary carcinoma with locally advanced or metastatic disease who will be treated with Pembrolizumab plus Enfortumab Vedotin. Approximately, 23 patients will be enrolled. At screening, pre-existing archival primary and metastatic FFPE tumor specimen will be collected and submitted for central pathology review and translational analysis. All participants will undergo baseline screening imaging for clinical staging. Patients will be treated with Pembrolizumab q21 plus Enfortumab Vedotin 1,8q21 for 3 cycles (3 infusion of Pembrolizumab and 6 infusion of Enfortumab Vedotin) then radiological imaging will be repeated and patients with SD, PR or CR will continue pembrolizumab until disease progression, unacceptable toxicities or completion of treatment (17 cycles). Patients with progressive disease after 3 cycles of study intervention will be treated as per clinical practice. Patients who will experience progressive disease during pembrolizumab monotherapy treatment could restart Enfortumab Vedotin. The study will also involve collection of a blood sample taken at the commencement of treatment, at the first cycle, after cycle 3 and at the end of treatment or progression of disease, to be used for research purposes.
This study is a retrospective study trying to find the predictive factors for medullary thyroid aggressiveness in terms of tumor metastasis and patients' survival.
The incidence of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has been on the rise in recent years, and 20%-50% of PTC patients will have lymph node metastasis. Lymph node involvement in PTC patients is usually related to the recurrence of PTC after surgery, and 30% of patients recur without lymph node dissection, with the risk of central cervical lymph node metastasis being the greatest, so it seems to be a good choice to perform lymph node dissection on patients after thyroidectomy, but in fact, there are controversies at home and abroad as to whether to perform lymph node dissection or not. The 2021 Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer state that prophylactic central lymph node dissection (PCND) may increase the incidence of postoperative complications, but due to the high metastatic rate of PTC and the ability of PCND to effectively prevent recurrence and reoperation, countries in the East Asian region perform prophylactic lymph node dissection on almost all patients with PTC. However, for more countries in Europe and the United States, performing PCND has become a non-essential, individualized option. The aim of this study is to collect multifactorial data from more than 1,000 patients who have undergone previous thyroidectomy from 2021 to 2023, and to develop a novel scoring scale that can be used to individualize patients' scores based on a variety of factors prior to surgery, so that patients can be more accurately predicted to have lymph node metastasis and need prophylactic lymph node dissection prior to surgery, and patients who do not need dissection can avoid surgery. For patients who do not need lymph node dissection, complications caused by surgery can be avoided, while for patients who do have lymph node metastasis, recurrence of their cancer can be prevented. This will change the status quo of not being able to accurately determine the actual situation through simple preoperative examination or performing prophylactic lymph node dissection for all PTC patients.
Thyroid surgery is the most common type of surgery among endocrine surgeries. This surgery is performed for patients with suspected malignancy, patients diagnosed with malignancy, and toxic nodular goiter. In addition to vocal cord injury, which is the most important complication of thyroid surgery, hypocalcemia due to hypoparathyroidism and surgical wound complications (such as hematoma, and fistula) can also be observed, and malignancy surgery increases the risk of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury. Therefore, it is important to differentiate these groups using non-invasive methods before surgery. Tumor-related inflammation is activated as a result of bone marrow and inflammation induced by malignancies. Insufficiently controlled or uncontrolled inflammatory activity may be responsible for malignant transformation. Lymphocyte monocyte ratio and red blood cell distribution are parameters (RDW, RDW-CW) previously studied in terms of cancers. Our aim in this study is to reveal the RDW, RDW-CW, and LMR calculated from complete blood count parameters in the preoperative period, as an indicator of malignant inflammatory response, in a non-invasive and inexpensive way before surgery or biopsy is performed to distinguish nodular goiter and thyroid malignancy.
