About this trial
This phase II trial tests how well XL092 works for the treatment of patients with differentiated thyroid cancer that has not responded to previous treatment with radioiodine (radioiodine refractory) and that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). XL092 is in a class of medications called tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply, which may help keep cancer cells from growing.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
3.1.1 Patients must have a histologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic, radioactive iodine (RAI) refractory, differentiated thyroid cancer (including papillary, follicular, and oncocytic/Hurthle cell, and poorly differentiated thyroid cancer (PDTC)1 ), with progression within 12 months (per RECIST v1.1 response criteria) prior to study registration, and no prior therapy in the RAI-refractory setting and for which standard curative measures do not exist or are no longer effective. NOTE: availability of other standard TKI treatment options will not preclude patients from being eligible for this study. NOTE: RAI refractoriness is defined as absence of uptake of RAI on either a low-dose diagnostic test or a post-treatment RAI scan in measurable lesions or radiographic progression of disease within 12 months of the last course of RAI treatment despite the recorded uptake of RAI with that previous therapy or having a cumulative lifetime administered dose of ≥ 600mCi. Footnote 1: Poorly differentiated thyroid cancer (PDTC) is typically classified as a type of differentiated thyroid cancer (as opposed to undifferentiated thyroid cancer or anaplastic thyroid cancer)
3.1.2 Patients must have measurable disease according to RECIST v1.1 (see Appendix B and Section 2).
3.1.3 Patients must be age ≥ 18 years.
3.1.4 Patients must exhibit an ECOG Performance Score of ≤ 2 (see Appendix C for ECOG Performance Status Scale).

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Progression free survival (PFS)
Progression is defined according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version (v) 1.1 criteria. Median PFS at 12-months will be analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. The 12-month PFS estimate will be reported along with the confidence interval. Cox proportional hazards models will be applied to assess the impact of covariates such as age, sex, baseline disease severity, and genetic markers on PFS, when appropriate.
Secondary outcomes
Radiographic response rate
Defined as the proportion of patients who achieve a complete response or partial response as per RECIST v1.1. The point estimate of the objective response rate will be reported with its 2-sided 95% Clopper-Pearson exact confidence interval.
Overall PFS
Will use the Kaplan-Meier method to estimate the overall PFS distribution. Subgroup comparisons will be made using log-rank tests, and a Cox proportional hazards model will be employed to assess covariate effects.
Overall survival (OS)
OS will also be analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier estimator. Differences in survival distributions across patient subgroups will be evaluated using log-rank tests, and Cox models will be used to explore the effects of demographic and clinical variables on OS.
Incidence of adverse events
Assessed by clinical review of all relevant parameters, including adverse events (AEs), concomitant medication queries, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, weight and vital signs measurements, electrocardiogram measurements, and clinical laboratory testing values. The severity of AEs will be graded as mild, moderate, severe, or life-threatening according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0. All reported toxicities, regardless of attribution, by toxicity type and maximum grade will be summarized, and sorted by number of patients experiencing the toxicity. The maximum grade consolidates the reports of a given toxicity for a patient over time by taking the maximum across time. Categorical data analyses and summary statistics will be used to report AEs.
