Comparing two doses of lenvatinib for thyroid cancer not helped by iodine
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a type of thyroid cancer called differentiated thyroid cancer (like papillary, follicular, or Hurthle cell).
- Your cancer must be resistant to radioactive iodine (RAI) - meaning RAI didn't work, you can't have it, or you've already had a lot of it.
- You can't have had more than one targeted therapy drug (like sorafenib or cabozantinib) before this trial.
- Your cancer must be causing symptoms or getting worse, and you need to be 18 or older.
- You must be in fairly good health (able to care for yourself, good blood pressure, and normal kidney and liver function).

This trial tests a combination of two drugs, anlotinib (a targeted therapy) and benmelstobart (an immunotherapy), for people with differentiated thyroid cancer that has spread or cannot be removed. It may be an option if your cancer did not respond to or got worse after first treatment.
This Phase 3 trial compares lenvatinib plus implanted radiation seeds versus lenvatinib alone in people with liver cancer that no longer responds to TACE. It aims to improve how long patients can control the cancer inside the liver.
This trial compares two treatments for liver cancer (HCC) that has stopped responding to TACE. One group gets lenvatinib (a targeted therapy pill) plus SIRT (internal radiation beads placed in the liver), and the other gets lenvatinib alone. The goal is to see which combination works better.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, pembrolizumab and lenvatinib, for people with a rare and aggressive thyroid cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the tumor or slow its growth.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (sinibolimab and lenvatinib) given before surgery. The goal is to shrink advanced thyroid cancer that cannot be fully removed otherwise, so that surgery can be more successful.
This study compares a stronger treatment plan (lenvatinib plus sintilimab plus TACE) against a standard plan (lenvatinib plus TACE) for advanced liver cancer. It aims to see which plan works better to control tumors and help patients live longer.
