Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer

The goal of the trial is to improve this OS by 4 months (to 9.9 months) using the zanzalintinib + cemiplimab treatment combination. Given an accrual period of 24 months and a maximum follow-up time of 36 months, at the significance level of 0.1, to achieve the power of 0.8, the sample size needed is 24 patients and the number of events required is 17. These results are based on a one-sided test with exponential assumption for survival time.

This is a phase Ib trial that studies personalized network pharmacology-based drug repurposing in patients with advanced thyroid cancer who have no other treatment options. The main objective is to study if it is feasible to give patients individualized drug combinations selected based on their tumor genetic profile. The secondary objective is to find out whether these treatments are safe and can help control the growth of the patient tumors or stop them from getting worse.

This multicenter study examines the safety and feasibility of the combination of neoadjuvant XL092 and cemiplimab prior to surgical resection in participants with wild-type (WT) anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) that has a BRAF mutation (BRAF V600E).

This pilot phase 2 study evaluate the effectiveness and safety of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib in patients with anaplastic thyroid cancer. Patients with anaplastic thyroid cancer who are treatment-naive (BRAF-negative) and who were previously treated with chemptherapy or targeted therapy are scheduled to undergo pembrolizumab and lenvatinib and evaluate the outcomes according to the primary and secondary endpoints.

SETHY is a prospective, multicohort, phase II, single-arm, non-randomized, non-blinded, investigator-initiated study of sacituzumab govitecan in patients with advanced or metastatic radioactive-iodine refractory differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) or anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC). The main hypothesis is that treatment with sacituzumab govitecan, a anti-Trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP-2), could be an effective treatment option for patients with either differentiated and anaplastic thyroid neoplasms because TROP-2 is highly expressed at the membrane of DTC and ATC.

This pilot phase 2 study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of the Rechallenge concept in patients with BRAF-positive anaplastic thyroid cancer after progression on anti-BRAF therapy. Patients with BRAF-positive anaplastic thyroid cancer who were previously treated with dabrafenib and trametinib (with a clinical or objective response at the start of treatment) and later with tumor progression during anti-BRAF therapy and subsequent lines of chemotherapy are scheduled to undergo targeted therapy (repeated administration of dabrafenib and trametinib in standard doses) and evaluate the outcomes according to the primary and secondary endpoints.

Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is an almost invariable lethal cancer in humans. Most patients present with a rapid progressive mass in the neck with progressive complaints like dyspnoea, dysphagia or pain. The risk of suffocation is the main reason for rapid surgical intervention, but we know from literature that an oncological resection with clear margins is seldomly achieved. Some patients deteriorate that fast after surgery that radiation therapy and/or chemotherapy is not feasible anymore. Patients with BRAF-mutated ATC already have shown to benefit from targeted BRAF/MEK inhibition. This study aims to increase the number of patients that undergo a successful R0 tumor resection after neo-adjuvant BRAF/MEK inhibitor treatment.
