Lateral neck lymph node surgery for thyroid cancer
This trial tests a surgical procedure to remove cancer-affected lymph nodes on the side of the neck in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. It aims to improve outcomes for those with confirmed or suspected spread to these nodes.
Medellín, AntioquiaAges 18–99 - NCT06524167Recruiting
Radiation therapy after surgery for advanced thyroid cancer
This study looks at whether adding radiation therapy after surgery can help people with thyroid cancer that is at high risk of coming back. It includes different types of thyroid cancer, like differentiated and medullary types.
ShanghaiAges 14–80 - NCT06530316Recruiting
RET inhibitor before surgery for advanced thyroid cancer with RET changes
This trial tests a targeted drug (a RET inhibitor) taken before surgery to help shrink thyroid cancer that has a specific genetic change (RET alteration). It may make surgery easier or more successful.
ShanghaiAges 14–80 - NCT07092514RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing two doses of lenvatinib for thyroid cancer not helped by iodine
This study compares two doses of lenvatinib (24 mg vs 10 mg per day) to see which works better for people with thyroid cancer that no longer responds to radioactive iodine. It's for those whose cancer is growing or causing symptoms.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07142005Recruiting
Educational tool for Hispanic medullary thyroid cancer patients
This study tests a culturally tailored educational tool to help Hispanic or Latino/a patients with medullary thyroid cancer and their caregivers make informed decisions. It aims to improve understanding and support for Spanish-speaking individuals.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT01660984Recruiting
Natural history study for medullary thyroid cancer or MEN2
This study follows children and adults with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) and/or MEN2 to better understand how the condition progresses over time. It may help doctors plan care in the future by collecting long-term health and lab information, not by giving a new treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4 months+ - NCT07419932Recruiting
Pre-surgery treatment for advanced thyroid cancer
This study tests whether giving treatment before surgery (neoadjuvant therapy) helps people with locally advanced thyroid cancer. It aims to shrink the tumor so surgery can be more successful.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 14–80 - NCT06195228RecruitingPhase 4
Real-world study of genetic types in advanced thyroid cancer
This study looks at how different genetic types of advanced thyroid cancer respond to treatment in real-world settings. It may help doctors choose the best therapy for you based on your tumor’s genetic makeup.
Fuzhou, FujianAges Any age - NCT05604963Recruiting
Half or full thyroid surgery for low-risk thyroid cancer
This study looks at people with low-risk thyroid cancer who have already had (or are about to have) surgery, comparing half-thyroid removal versus full-thyroid removal. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective surgery for your cancer type and risk level.
Crewe, CheshireAges 16 years+ - NCT06791005RecruitingPhase 3
Timing of carbon nanoparticles injection for thyroid cancer
This trial tests whether the timing of a carbon nanoparticle injection during thyroid cancer surgery improves outcomes. It may help patients who need their whole thyroid removed and have cancer in both lobes or spread to lymph nodes.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 16–80 - NCT06959511RecruitingPhase 2
Zanzalintinib for advanced thyroid cancer before surgery
This trial tests a drug called zanzalintinib for people with advanced thyroid cancer that has spread nearby. The goal is to see if taking this pill before surgery can shrink the tumor and make it easier to remove.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06277180Recruiting
PET scan guided surgery for medullary thyroid cancer

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 35 recruiting medullary thyroid cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a medullary thyroid cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a medullary thyroid cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
