Clinical Trial Summary

providing an almost natural ectopic thyroid in patients undergoing total thyroidectomy, remains a challenging subject that can benefits patients with a non-pharmacological substitute for their normal gland. this study seeks to prove that thyroid autotransplantation is possible and reliable.

Clinical Trial Description

Total thyroidectomy, rather thyroidectomy, is currently widely accepted as the modality of choice for treatment of benign thyroid disorders that require surgical excision. The goal of post-thyroidectomy management is to reach a "safe physiological status" of thyroid hormonal profile. Although exogenous levothyroxine replacement has long been safely used as a replacement after total thyroidectomy, it is not considered optimal, as it is bounded by patient's compliance with the treatment and follow-up schedule, effect of mal-absorption, and the inability to compensate for daily physiological alterations. The concept of endocrinal tissue auto-transplantation has been largely investigated in the case of parathyroid gland, and to a lesser extent for pancreatic islets. Although both the experimental studies of thyroid autotransplantation and the early case reports of lingual thyroid autotransplantations have shown encouraging results, a very limited number of clinical studies investigated thyroid autotransplantation in adult patients with benign thyroid disorders. Moreover, the discrepancy in the patients' characteristics and thyroid autotransplantation technique in these studies hinders the standardization of thyroid autotransplantation for clinical practice. Hypothetically, thyroid autotransplantation offers and attractive alternative for subtotal thyroidectomy, as it enables the preservation of native responsive thyroid tissue in an accessible location, and, thus, evades the risk of possible regrowth in the neck region. The present preliminary clinical study is conducted to investigate the feasibility and outcome of thyroid autotransplantation after total thyroidectomy for patients with benign thyroid disorders (other than thyroiditis). ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
