Filter by:This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Armour Thyroid treatment compared with synthetic T4 in subjects who have primary hypothyroidism and are currently stabilized (i.e., in-range thyroid-stimulating hormone [TSH]) on synthetic T4 treatment. This study will also therefore evaluate the efficacy and safety of dose conversion from synthetic T4 therapy to Armour Thyroid therapy.
1. To evaluate the clinical outcomes of ultrasound-guided thermal ablationfor the treatment of benign thyroid nodules; 2. To develop and validate a artificial intelligence model to predict the outcomes of ultrasound-guided thermal ablation in the treatment of benign thyroid nodules
This is a prospective cohort study to test Minimally Invasive Treatments of the Thyroid (MITT) as potential alternative to surgery in patients with Papillary Thyroid MicroCarcinoma (PTMC)
To evaluate the clinical outcomes of image-guided thermal ablation versus thyroid lobectomy for the treatment of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma
The main study hypothesis is that Sjögren Disease (SD), usually considered a disorder typical of adult females, may occur not exceptionally in adolescence or even in childhood as a subclinical process. There are several pieces of evidence in favor of this hypothesis, from the incidental detection of asymptomatic SD in pediatric age to biobank-based studies showing that biological signs of SD may precede the disease clinical onset by years or decades. The best scenario to verify this hypothesis could be that of autoimmune thyroiditis, for the following three reasons: 1) subjects with Autoimmune thyroiditis (AT) have a high risk of developing SD (7%); 2) in cases with comorbidity of SD and AT the diagnosis of AT had usually been made before; 3) subjects with AT routinely undergo periodic blood examination and neck ultrasonography (US), which may include Salivary Gland Ultrasound (SGUS) providing contributive data to detect an asymptomatic pre-SD. The knowledge of the real association between AT and pre-SD may impact on several aspects of medicine.
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;
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the neurological and cardiological phenotype of patients with resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) syndromes beta and alpha (RTHß and RTHa) due to dominant negative variants in the genes encoding the thyroid hormone receptors alpha (THRA) and beta (THRB). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Define frequency and improve early diagnosis for RTH syndromes - Developing tools to accelerate diagnosis of RTH syndromes - Development and validation of monitoring tools Participants, recruited at neonatal screening or from cohorts of patients with unexplained specific neuro-cognitive or cardiovascular phenotypes will be submitted to biochemical and genetic investigations. In addition pluripotent stem cells will be generated from peripheral blood cells of RTHs patients and studied in vitro to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying neurological and cardiovascular consequences. In vitro and clinical data, will be correlated to identify biomarkers for monitoring treatment.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and immunogenicity of efgartigimod PH20 SC in participants with active, moderate-to-severe TED, compared with placebo PH20 SC. After the screening period, eligible participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive efgartigimod PH20 SC or placebo PH20 SC, respectively during the double-blinded treatment period (DBTP). At the end of the DBTP, participants may enter a follow-up observational period while off study drug. Some participants may also enter the open-label treatment period with efgartigimod PH20 SC. The study duration varies from approximately 60 to 110 weeks. An alternative list of clinical sites open for recruitment could be found in the other UplighTED study record (https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06307613)
