Active surveillance for Bethesda IV thyroid nodules
This study is testing whether it is safe to simply monitor (watch closely) a small thyroid nodule that has a certain biopsy result (Bethesda IV) instead of removing it right away. You would not receive a treatment, but would have regular checkups and ultrasounds to see if the nodule changes.
CopenhagenAges 30 years+ - NCT07376837Recruiting
Radiofrequency ablation for small low-risk thyroid cancer
This study tests whether radiofrequency ablation (a heat-based treatment applied through the skin) can safely and effectively cure small, low-risk papillary thyroid cancers. It is designed for people whose tumors are small, have not spread, and who either cannot have surgery or prefer not to.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07428057Recruiting
Low Calcium After Thyroid Surgery Study
This study looks at why some people develop low calcium levels after thyroid surgery. It aims to understand risk factors by reviewing medical records of patients who had their thyroid removed at Minia University Hospital.
Minya, Minya GovernorateAges 18–75 - 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 - NCT07436455Recruiting
New PET scan for thyroid cancer detection
This trial tests a new type of PET scan (F-18 Tetrafluoroborate) to find thyroid cancer cells that don't show up on standard scans. It's for people who have had surgery and radioactive iodine therapy but still have signs of cancer in their blood tests.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07178080Enrolling by invitation
New 3D imaging for thyroid nodule measurement
This study compares a new 3D technology to standard ultrasound for measuring thyroid nodule volume. It may help doctors better track changes in nodules over time.
Sarasota, FloridaAges 22 years+ - NCT06960005Enrolling by invitation
Exercise to improve muscle and reduce falls in thyroid disease
This study tests whether a special exercise program can help older women with thyroid disease improve muscle strength, quality of life, and reduce falls. You would do supervised rhythm-based multitask exercises (like stepping and moving to music) several times a week.
GistrupAges 65 years+ - NCT06931743Enrolling by invitation
Electrical stimulation for pain after thyroid surgery
This trial tests if electrical stimulation can help reduce pain after thyroid surgery. It is for people who have at least moderate pain after their operation.
Shanghai, Yangpu DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT06868459Enrolling by invitation
Study of PED-TAE treatment for thyroid disease
This study tracks people who have already received a new type of thyroid treatment called PED-TAE (pressure-enabled embolization) using the TriNav system. It aims to see how well this procedure works for various thyroid conditions, including overactive thyroid, large goiters, and benign nodules causing symptoms.
Sarasota, FloridaAges 18–89 - NCT06785987Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Lidocaine Drip During Thyroid Surgery with Nerve Monitoring
This study tests whether giving a continuous lidocaine drip during open thyroid surgery can improve pain control and recovery. Lidocaine is a numbing medicine, and researchers want to see if it helps without interfering with the nerve monitor used during surgery.
Kaohsiung, TaiwanAges 20–75 - NCT06261190Enrolling by invitation
Active monitoring for low-risk thyroid cancer
This trial tests whether it is safe to avoid immediate surgery and instead monitor small thyroid cancers that are considered low-risk. If you join, doctors will check regularly to make sure the cancer does not grow or spread.
Goyang-siAges 18 years+ - NCT07440290RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Dabrafenib and trametinib for BRAF V600 cancers
This trial tests two targeted drugs (dabrafenib and trametinib) for patients whose cancer has a specific change in the BRAF gene called V600. These drugs work together to block signals that help the cancer grow. The trial is for children, teenagers, and adults with many types of cancer, except for a few common ones that already have approved treatments.
BelfastAges 1 year+ - NCT07265258RecruitingPhase 4
Teprotumumab for active thyroid eye disease
This study tests a drug called teprotumumab for people with active thyroid eye disease. It is designed to help reduce eye bulging and other symptoms, and may be an option if you have not had strong treatments before.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07059507Recruiting
Thyroid cancer in Graves' disease patients having thyroid surgery
This study looks at how often thyroid cancer is found by accident in people with Graves' disease who have their thyroid removed. It helps doctors understand who might be at higher risk so they can plan better care.
Minya, Minya GovernorateAges 18–75 - NCT07755423Enrolling by invitation
Radiation therapy for thyroid cancer that has spread
This trial tests a precise type of radiation therapy (SBRT) for thyroid cancer that has spread to a few other parts of the body. It may help control those spots when other treatments haven't worked.
ShanghaiAges 18–70 - NCT07753499Recruiting
PET scan for recurrent or metastatic thyroid cancer
This study tests a new type of PET scan to find thyroid cancer that has come back or spread. It compares two tracers to see which one better shows the cancer, which may help doctors choose the right treatment.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18–90 - NCT07753603RecruitingPhase 3
