Filter by:Any time the words "you," "your," "I," or "me" appear, it is meant to apply to the potential participant. The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of gemcitabine that can be given by inhalation (breathing it as a mist) to patients with solid tumors that have spread to the lungs from other parts of the body. The safety and side effects of this drug will also be studied. This is an investigational study. Gemcitabine is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of pancreatic and lung cancer, and other solid tumors. Its administration by inhalation is investigational. The study doctor can explain how the study drug is designed to work. Up to 44 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
Papillary thyroid microcarcinoma are small thyroid cancer measuring 1cm or less. Most of this tumor are not palpable and are identified either through pathologic examination or from imaging modalities, such as CT scan or thyroid sono. Active surveillance of papillary microcarcinoma is to observe thyroid papillary cancer without immediate surgical approach. The purpose of this study is to understand more about the characteristics of papillary microcarcinoma, which has been known for "the cancer slowly progression"
Database of Institut Paoli-Calmettes patients diagnosed with thyroid cancer
Thyroid carcinoma is the common endocrine system malignant neoplasm. At present it has become the malignant neoplasm of fastest growing incidence rate. More than 85% thyroid carcinoma is papillary thyroid carcinoma. Cervical lymph node metastasis is common in papillary thyroid carcinoma patients. This study aim to reveal protein expression differences between papillary thyroid carcinoma with cervical lymph node metastasis and without cervical lymph node metastasis.
Thyroid cancers can occur sporadically, but can also be found as tumors that cluster in families with other cancers or genetic syndromes. Researchers are studying thyroid cancer in children and families, with a particular interest in understanding genes and other factors that may put individuals at risk for developing thyroid cancer and thyroid nodules. - In this study, family and medical history information is collected alongside a blood or saliva sample for genetic studies. - Individuals with a past or present childhood thyroid cancer/nodule or a thyroid cancer suspected to be inherited in their family are invited to participate.
The aim of this study was to assess the impact of adjuvant radioactive iodine therapy on the quality of life(QOL) in differentiated thyroid cancer patients and to identify independent factors affecting changes in the QOL.
Thyroid carcinoma is the common endocrine system malignant neoplasm. At present it has become the malignant neoplasm of fastest growing incidence rate. More than 90% thyroid carcinoma is thyroid differentiated carcinoma(DTC). Postoperative oral L-thyroxine suppressing thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) treatment is the standard therapy in DTC patients. While TSH-suppressive therapy with L-thyroxine can cause subclinical hyperthyroidism in treatment of patients with thyroid differentiated carcinoma. The impact of this therapy on cognitive functions and mood have not been systematically studied. The investigators infer the subclinical hyperthyroidism caused by TSH-suppressive therapy may impact cognitive function and mood disorders in DTC patients. The aim of this study is to explore the possible mechanism of cognitive function impairment in the course of TSH-suppressive therapy by rat model of total thyroidectomy + TSH-suppressive therapy and clinical trials. The result of this study may provide clinical and experimental basis for the side effects risk result form TSH-suppressive therapy in DTC patients.
This study recruit the patients with unilateral papillary thyroid cancer before operation,the patients agree to enter the test,and divided into experimental and control group.experimental group patients receive the surgery including unilateral thyroid lobectomy and bilateral central lymph node dissection.and control group receive the surgery including unilateral thyroid lobectomy and unilateral central lymph node dissection.last the investigators compare numbers of patient with tumor recurrence and metastasis rate of 5 years,numbers of metastatic lymph node,and numbers of participants with adverse events related to treatment between two groups in order to evaluate the significance of bilateral lymph node dissection.
- To find out the gap between real-world clinical practice and guideline recommendations in initial management of DTC patients - To observe the characteristics of patients who achieved and did not achieve TSH target value after one year follow-up - To assess response to initial therapy in patients who undergo total or near-total thyroidectomy and RAI remnant ablation after one year follow-up (according to an modified dynamic risk stratification system) - To observe the recurrence status after one year follow-up
In this study, participants with multiple types of advanced (unresectable and/or metastatic) solid tumors who have progressed on standard of care therapy will be treated with pembrolizumab (MK-3475).
