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 - NCT05837260Recruiting
Tracking tumor DNA changes in advanced thyroid cancers
This study looks at a small blood test (called ctDNA) and tumor tissue to understand how advanced thyroid cancers change over time. It may help doctors better monitor cancer growth and guide treatment choices.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07777536RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation for anaplastic and poorly differentiated thyroid cancer
This study is comparing two different ways of giving radiation therapy for anaplastic and poorly differentiated thyroid cancer. The goal is to see which method is more effective in treating the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - 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
Linsitinib for active moderate to severe thyroid eye disease
This study tests an experimental pill (linsitinib) for people with active thyroid eye disease. Participation may help reduce eye bulging and other symptoms, especially if other treatments haven't worked.
Las Vegas, NevadaAges 18 years+ - NCT07747103RecruitingPhase 3
Porcine thyroid extract for hypothyroidism
This trial tests a new porcine (pig) thyroid hormone replacement tablet for people with primary hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). It aims to see if this treatment is safe and effective compared to current levothyroxine therapy.
Modesto, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT03131726RecruitingPhase 3
Simvastatin for Graves eye disease in mild-to-moderate cases
This trial tests whether simvastatin (a cholesterol medicine) can improve eye symptoms from Graves’ eye disease. It is aimed at people with active mild-to-moderate disease and will also check safety with blood tests, heart/skin tolerance, and stomach health.
MalmöAges 18–70 - NCT06610604Recruiting
Thyroid nodule treatment and quality of life study
This study looks at how thyroid nodules affect your daily life and feelings after treatment. It compares quality of life in people who had microwave ablation versus those who had thyroid surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06623500Recruiting
Iodine levels and health in thyroid cancer patients
This study looks at how iodine levels in your diet relate to thyroid cancer. If you have already had surgery for thyroid cancer, doctors will review your medical records and follow your health over time.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–65 - NCT06627998Recruiting
Bone health study for thyroid cancer patients
This study checks how common bone problems are in people with thyroid cancer. It uses a chest x-ray done before surgery to look at the spine's shape.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT05766098Recruiting
Genetic testing of papillary thyroid tumor samples
This trial studies the genetic “mutations” in papillary thyroid cancer tumors using tumor tissue. The goal is to better describe tumor genetic patterns, which may help researchers understand the disease.
Milan, MIAges Any age - NCT07716397Recruiting
MRI study for thyroid eye disease diagnosis and care
This study uses MRI scans of the eye area to better understand and classify thyroid eye disease (TED). It aims to help doctors predict outcomes and personalize treatment. You may be eligible if you have stable TED or are a healthy volunteer.
Shanghai, Huangpu DistrictAges 18–75 - NCT07713901Enrolling by invitation
Study of medication risk for rare thyroid cancer
This study looks at medical records to see if certain medications might be linked to a rare thyroid cancer (medullary thyroid carcinoma). You don't need to do anything new—just your existing health data will be reviewed.
Parsippany, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07707401Recruiting
WeChat neck exercises for recovery after thyroid surgery
This study tests whether simple neck exercises, guided through the WeChat app, can help you recover more quickly after thyroid surgery. If you have no serious complications and don't have neck problems, you may be able to join.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–60 - NCT06149637Recruiting
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 - NCT07634978Recruiting
AI Chatbot Health Education for Thyroid Cancer Surgery
This study tests whether an AI chatbot can help thyroid cancer patients understand their surgery and recovery better. You would use the chatbot before and after your scheduled thyroid surgery to answer questions and learn about what to expect.

Testing IBI3031 for Active Thyroid Eye Disease
This early-stage trial tests a new drug called IBI3031 to treat active thyroid eye disease (TED), a condition where the immune system attacks muscles and tissue around the eyes, causing swelling, bulging, and sometimes double vision. The study aims to see if this drug can reduce inflammation and improve symptoms.

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.
