Recruiting studies
- NCT06671184Recruiting
Predicting difficult thyroid surgery for less scarring
This trial looks at a tool doctors can use to predict if a certain type of thyroid surgery (through the mouth or under the chin) will be challenging. It helps people who want less visible scarring after their thyroid cancer surgery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT06673329RecruitingPhase 1
Brodalumab for immune-related side effects from cancer treatment
This trial tests if brodalumab, an antibody that blocks a specific immune pathway (IL-17), can help control side effects caused by immunotherapy cancer treatment. It is for people with advanced solid organ cancers who have immune-related side effects that are suspected to involve IL-17.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06652113Recruiting
Hydroxychloroquine with thyroid hormone for recurrent pregnancy loss
This study tests whether a combination of hydroxychloroquine (an anti-inflammatory drug) and levothyroxine (thyroid hormone) can improve live birth rates in women with recurrent pregnancy loss, normal thyroid function, and TPO antibodies.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 20–40 - NCT06623578Recruiting
Robotic vs. open surgery for thyroid cancer that has spread
This study compares a robotic surgery method using small incisions under the armpit with standard open surgery for papillary thyroid cancer that has spread to lymph nodes on one side of the neck. It aims to see which approach is better for removing cancer and recovery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06583395Enrolling by invitation
Meditation retreat study with fitness tracker
This trial studies people attending a 7-day meditation retreat to see how meditation affects well-being. You will wear a fitness tracker and answer surveys.
Palm Desert, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT06558981RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation therapy after thyroid surgery for high-risk cancer
This trial is testing whether giving radiation therapy after thyroid surgery can help destroy any leftover cancer cells in people with high-risk differentiated thyroid cancer. It is for those who had surgery but some cancer was still left behind.
ShanghaiAges 14–80 - NCT06554652RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two neck surgeries for thyroid cancer spread
This trial compares two types of neck surgery for people with papillary thyroid cancer that has spread to a small number of lymph nodes in the neck. The goal is to see if a less extensive lymph node removal works just as well as the standard more extensive surgery.
ShanghaiAges 14–80 - NCT06487312Enrolling by invitation
Testing a remote automated ultrasound system for exams
This trial tests a remote, automated ultrasound system that may allow you to get an ultrasound exam without the doctor being in the same room. The goal is to see if it works as well as a standard ultrasound and is safe to use.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06356272Recruiting
Oropharynx cancer biomarker study
This study looks at certain markers (called p16 and HPV) in tumor samples to better understand oropharynx cancer. It may help doctors learn more about the disease and guide future treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05903196Recruiting
Radiofrequency treatment for non-cancer thyroid lumps in LatinX adults
This study looks at radiofrequency ablation, a heat-based procedure, to shrink a benign (non-cancer) thyroid nodule in adults who identify as LatinX. It may help reduce symptoms from the lump while tracking safety and results.
New York, New YorkAges 18–90 - NCT06296420Recruiting
Swallowing problems after thyroid surgery
This study looks at swallowing problems after thyroid surgery. It aims to understand how common these issues are and help patients recover better.
Milan, MIAges 18 years+ - NCT06158360Recruiting
Post-surgery symptoms after thyroid cancer surgery
This study looks at how you feel after thyroid surgery for cancer. It tests whether adding Chinese medicine treatments can help with symptoms like pain or fatigue during recovery.
Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT06133374Recruiting
Genetic testing accuracy: needle biopsy vs. surgery
This study compares genetic testing results from a small needle biopsy to those from the surgically removed thyroid tissue. It aims to see if the biopsy alone can accurately predict the cancer's genetics, which could help guide treatment decisions.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT06141369Recruiting
Personalized mRNA vaccine for advanced endocrine tumors
This trial tests a personalized mRNA vaccine made from your tumor's genetic information. It is for people with advanced endocrine tumors who have no standard treatment options left, and aims to help the immune system fight the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT03160274Recruiting
Genetic testing for certain adrenal and nerve tumors
This study looks at genetic (DNA) changes in people with pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma and related conditions. It may help clarify why these conditions happen and how they run in families.
San Antonio, TexasAges Any age - NCT03047369Recruiting
Myelin brain disorder research biobank for samples and data
This study collects brain-related medical information and biological samples to help researchers better understand leukodystrophies and other white-matter brain disorders. It may help future diagnosis and treatments by building a valuable “biobank” of patient data and samples.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT05599139Recruiting
Testing iodine uptake after a low-iodine diet
This study looks at how much iodine your body absorbs after you follow a low-iodine diet before radioactive iodine treatment (131I) for thyroid cancer. It may help improve how safely and effectively this treatment is planned.
Groningen, Provincie GroningenAges 18–75 - NCT05526144RecruitingPhase 2
Thyroid hormone treatment for fatty liver in Veterans
This trial tests whether thyroid hormone can improve nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (fatty liver with inflammation) in Veterans. You may be asked to have a medically needed liver biopsy, and the study also focuses on safety in people with related conditions like diabetes and heart risks.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18–75 - NCT05435547RecruitingPhase 4
Pre-surgery steroid medicine for autoimmune thyroid disease
This trial tests whether taking corticosteroids (anti-inflammatory medicines) before thyroid surgery is safe and helpful for people with autoimmune thyroid disease. It focuses on Graves’ or Hashimoto’s disease patients who are planning total thyroid removal.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05366881Recruiting
Blood test study to spot early cancer signal and cancer leftovers
This observational study checks whether a blood test (a “cfDNA” test) can detect early signs of cancer or small amounts of cancer left after treatment. It may help doctors use a simple blood sample to improve cancer detection and follow-up.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 40 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 40–75 - NCT05012033Recruiting
Study how high-dose steroids move through the body
This study measures blood levels of high-dose steroid medicines (prednisolone or related steroids) to understand how the body processes them in different real-life situations. It may help improve how steroids are dosed and monitored for people needing short-term or longer-term anti-inflammatory treatment.
LondonAges 18–75 - NCT00227253Recruiting
Study center for people with Chromosome 18
This trial is for people with Chromosome 18 (or the parent/guardian of a child with it) to take part in medical checkups and study evaluations. It may help researchers learn more about the condition and how to best evaluate patients safely.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for thyroid?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 324 recruiting thyroid 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 thyroid 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 thyroid 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.
