Filter by:Using excess tumour samples that contain amyoid, from patients with Medullary Thyroid Cancer, we aim to determine the structures of ex vivo amyloid fibrils from human tumour tissue samples and compare them with that of existing stock of in vitro formed amyloid fibrils. This will permit the analysis of the effects of gene mutation and post-translational modification on the development of amyloid from a disease state. Amyloid is known to accumulate in the brain tissue of patients with neuro-degenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and Dementia. Therefore solving the structure of amyloid fibrils may aid the development of future treatments for these conditions.
This study will evaluate the clinical response and safety of ultrasound guided percutaneous thermal ablation of lymph node metastases from thyroid carcinoma as an alternative to surgical treatment. The ablation of cervical lymph node metastases from differentiated thyroid carcinoma or medullary thyroid carcinoma will be directed to lesions larger than 0.8 cm, using ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA), laser ablation (LA) or cryoablation (Cryo) techniques, randomly assigned. Clinical and ultrasound monitoring will be carried out during 24 months, with examinations before the ablation procedure, immediately after including contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) when applicable, and B-mode, color Doppler and Shear-Wave elastography ultrasound follow up with 6, 12, and 24 months.
The reason for this study is to see if the study drug selpercatinib is safe and effective in participants in China with rearranged during transfection (RET) fusion-positive solid tumors, medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) and other tumors with RET activation.
The reason for this study is to see if the study drug selpercatinib is safe and more effective compared to a standard treatment in participants with rearranged during transfection (RET)-mutant medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body. Participants who are assigned to the standard treatment and discontinue due to progressive disease have the option to potentially crossover to selpercatinib.
This is a global, multicenter, open-label pre-approval access program to provide access to pralsetinib (BLU-667) until such time that pralsetinib becomes available through other mechanisms or the Sponsor chooses to discontinue the program.
A phase 1/2, first-in-human, open-label study to determine the safety, tolerability, PK, and preliminary efficacy of the novel RET/SRC inhibitor TPX-0046 in adult subjects with advanced or metastatic solid tumors harboring RET mutations or alterations. The study consists of three portions: 1) Phase 1 Dose Escalation and Food Effect Sub-study, and 2) Phase 1 dose expansion and 3) Phase 2 efficacy evaluation.
Expanded access for participants with cancer with RET activation who are ineligible for an ongoing selpercatinib (also known as LOXO-292) clinical trial or have other considerations that prevent access to selpercatinib through an existing clinical trial. The treating physician/investigator contacts Lilly when, based on their medical opinion, a patient meets the criteria for inclusion in the expanded access program.
This is an open-label, multi-center Phase 1/2 study of oral LOXO-292 in pediatric participants with an activating rearranged during transfection (RET) alteration and an advanced solid or primary CNS tumor.
The primary objective of this study is to determine in an exploratory manner the objective overall response rate to ponatinib in the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic MTC previously treated with cabozantinib or vandetanib who have tumors with rearranged-during-transfection (RET) mutations and have tumors without RET mutations.
To assess the diagnostic accuracy of 18F-Fluorocholine PET/CT for the detection of medullary thyroid cancer in patients with primary and recurrent disease.
