Filter by:Thyroid carcinoma on struma ovarii (TCSO) is a rare ovarian tumor, derivate from monodermic teratomas. It represents about 0.01% of overall ovarian tumours, and 5 to 10% of struma ovarii. The diagnosis is histologic and retrospective after pelvic surgery. Because of its rarity, the treatment of TCSO is not consensual and should be validated in multidisciplinary team involved in rare ovarian carcinoma. TCSO should be taken care of as a thyroid carcinoma, in case of relapse, with systemic treatment, as tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), without any clinical trial proving this benefit. Indeed, molecular profiles and genomic expression is unknown, because of studies with few patients (less than 10) contrary to thyroid carcinomas with the TCGA genomic classification. The study purposes are the outcome of the patients after the first treatment and the comparison of the genomic profil in next generation sequencing (NGS) with TCGA thyroid carcinoma profile. Thus, the treatment could be tailored, confirming the same therapy as in thyroid carcinoma.
Ex vivo vibrational spectroscopy (VS), including Raman spectroscopy (RS) of thyroid tissue samples, collected from patients undergoing routine diagnostic thyroid biopsies for diagnosis of potential thyroid cancer. Raman spectra are to be correlated with consensus histopathology and clinical outcomes. Multivariate analysis to be used to evaluate the classification accuracy of VS ex vivo.
Thyroid cancer database collects clinical and laboratory data from patients with a thyroid tumor who received radioactive Iodine treatment. This database only records information based on patients' medical files in a structured manner. Thyroid database is used for retrospective non-interventional research projects.
The Italian Thyroid Cancer Observatory (ITCO) repository was established to collect data on thyroid cancer management in a prospective and consecutive series of newly-diagnosed patients, enrolled in centers uniformly distributed across the nation.
This study will evaluate the clinical response and safety of cone beam computed-tomography guided percutaneous cryoablation in bone metastases from thyroid, adrenal and neuroendocrine tumors in 30 patients.
This trial is a prospective, non-interventional, monocentric study aiming to collect standard of care imaging of patients treated with Iodine-131 for the determination of dosimetric studies. Data from this study will be collected as part of an European research project called MEDIRAD. The overall objectives of this project are to enhance the scientific bases and clinical practice of radiation protection in the medical field, and more specifically to develop and implement the tools necessary to establish the range of absorbed doses delivered to healthy organs in patients undergoing thyroid ablation and the threshold absorbed dose required for thyroid ablation. This will enable patient specific treatment planning that will minimize risk to the patient while ensuring a successful outcome and will facilitate development of a large scale epidemiological study of the effect of low absorbed doses from irradiation of normal organs with internal sources of radionuclides. Patients will be followed as part of their standard of care. Imaging (SPECT/CT (Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography-Computerized Tomography) and Whole Body scintigraphy) performed at 48 hours post Iodine-131 treatment will be collected. Measures of external gamma radiation will also be collected in the European database.
1. Evaluation of the role of serum midkine in differentiating malignant from benign thyroid nodule 2. studying the level of serum midkine in relation to different thyroid cancer stages
This trial studies how well dabrafenib, trametinib, and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) work together in treating patients with BRAF mutated anaplastic thyroid cancer. Dabrafenib and trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy beams to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving dabrafenib, trametinib, and IMRT together may kill more tumor cells.
This study aims to develop a standardized universal imaging protocol for ICG-guided fluorescent total thyroidectomy, including quantitative evaluations of the fluorescent signal. Therefore, patients will undergo thyroid surgery (total thyroidectomy) with the use of ICG fluorescence.
This study investigates if head and neck squamous cell carcinoma can be tracked with cell-free tumor DNA, RNA or HPV-DNA, in blood samples from patients referred with suspicion of cancer, and if it can be used in detecting recurrence in patients already diagnosed and treated for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
