Active clinical trials for "Thyroid Diseases"

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of immunosuppressive agents treating Thyroid Associated Ophthalmopathy by multi-model image.

Primary Objective: To preliminarily evaluate the efficacy of the treatment regimen of HBM9161 680 mg administered subcutaneously weekly and sequentially every other week for 12 weeks in Chinese patients with active moderate to severe TED.

This is an open label, single center, phase 2 trial of adjuvant pembrolizumab after external beam radiation to the primary tumor in patients with stage IVB (disease localized to the neck) ATC. This drug trial will estimate the median progression-free survival (PFS) (from the start of adjuvant pembrolizumab until locoregional progression, development of distant metastatic disease, or death) in stage IVB ATC patients with gross disease, treated with external beam radiation (+/- concomitant chemotherapy) followed by adjuvant pembrolizumab. Patients will be patients enrolled from cohort 1 and 2 (cohort 1: >51 Gy; cohort 2: <50 Gy).

This phase II trial studies the effect of pembrolizumab, dabrafenib, and trametinib before surgery in treating patients with BRAF V600E-mutated anaplastic thyroid cancer. BRAF V600E is a specific mutation (change) in the BRAF gene, which makes a protein that is involved in sending signals in cells and in cell growth. It may increase the growth and spread of tumor cells. Dabrafenib and trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Pembrolizumab, dabrafenib, and trametinib may help to control BRAF V600E-mutated anaplastic thyroid cancer when given before surgery.

The purpose of this study is to explore whether percutaneous laser ablation (PLA) is a safe and effective alternative to removing papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) with surgery.

This prospective, multi-centre, open label, non-randomised phase II trial aims restore radioiodine sensitivity in patients with NRAS or BRAFV600E mutant refractory thyroid cancer. Participants will be treated with Trametinib +/- Dabrafenib tyrosine kinase inhibitors for a period of 30 days, restoration of sensitivity will be monitored using 18F-FDG-PET & I-124 PET imaging.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of Bupivicaine and Lidocaine for postoperative pain control in thyroid surgery.

This clinical trial is looking at a combination of drugs called vemurafenib and cobimetinib. Vemurafenib is approved as standard of care for adult patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Cobimetinib is approved as standard of care in combination with vemurafenib for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Cobimetinib and vemurafenib work in patients with these types of cancers which have certain changes in the cancer cells called BRAF V600 mutation-positive. Investigators now wish to find out if it will be useful in treating patients with other cancer types which are also BRAF V600 mutation-positive. If the results are positive, the study team will work with the NHS and the Cancer Drugs Fund to see if these drugs can be routinely accessed for patients in the future. This trial is part of a trial programme called DETERMINE. The programme will also look at other anti-cancer drugs in the same way, through matching the drug to rare cancer types or ones with specific mutations.

This is a multi-centre, randomised, non-inferiority, phase III study in patients with low risk differentiated thyroid cancer. Patients will be identified via oncology multidisciplinary team meetings. There will be two sources of patients in the trial, with the same histological diagnoses and prognosis (i.e. recurrence risk): Group 1: Patients who have already had a HT for thyroid problems and are then subsequently diagnosed with low risk DTC will be randomised 1:1 to undergo surveillance only OR a second operation to remove the rest of their thyroid gland (two-stage total thyroidectomy). Group 2: Patients diagnosed with low risk DTC using cytology (Thy5) but no surgery performed will be randomised 1:1 to have either a hemi-thyroidectomy OR a single-stage total thyroidectomy. The overall aim of the trial is to determine whether hemithyroidectomy is an acceptable and cost-effective surgical procedure compared to total thyroidectomy in low risk thyroid cancer. Overall, 456 patients will be recruited to the trial. Patients will be initially be followed up post-surgery then 12 monthly for 6 years.

To evaluate the efficacy of batoclimab 680 milligrams (mg) subcutaneous (SC) once a week (QW) for 12 weeks followed by 340 mg SC QW for 12 weeks versus placebo on proptosis responder rate at Week 24.
