Radioactive iodine doses for thyroid cancer
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how different doses of radioactive iodine affect people with thyroid cancer after they have had their thyroid removed. It may help doctors choose the best dose for future patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery to remove your whole thyroid (total thyroidectomy).
- You have papillary or follicular thyroid cancer.
- You may or may not have had lymph nodes removed during surgery.
- You have medical records available for the study.

This trial studies how well radioactive iodine treatment works for people with certain types of thyroid cancer that have a low or intermediate risk of coming back. It aims to see if this treatment is effective and safe for these patients.
This study compares two approaches after thyroid surgery: giving radioactive iodine right away versus deciding based on follow-up test results. It aims to see which approach better helps people with intermediate-risk differentiated thyroid cancer.
This study compares two ways of replacing thyroid hormone after radioactive iodine therapy for high-risk thyroid cancer. It aims to find which approach is more effective and better for patients.
This trial offers a decision aid to help you choose whether to have radioactive iodine (RAI) treatment after thyroid cancer surgery. You may qualify if you have intermediate-risk thyroid cancer and haven't yet made a decision about RAI.
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.
This trial tests how much radiation a specialized whole-body PET/CT scan delivers in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. It may help doctors better plan treatment for cancer that persists, returns, or has spread—especially when radioactive iodine (RAI) may or may not work.
