Brief Title: Digoxin for the Reinduction of Radioiodine Uptake in Metastatic or Locally Advanced Non-medullary Thyroid Carcinoma
Official Title: Digoxin for the Reinduction of Radioiodine Uptake in Metastatic or Locally Advanced Non-medullary Thyroid Carcinoma
Study ID: NCT05507775
Brief Summary: Non-medullary thyroid carcinoma has a good prognosis in most patients. However, a small subset of patients nevertheless develop metastatic or locally advanced and unresectable disease which in some cases also becomes radioiodine refractory. In these patients treatment options are very limited. Earlier cell line and animal studies have shown that digoxin can reinduce radioiodine uptake in non-medullary thyroid cancer. This study serves as a proof of principle study to assess the possibility of digoxin to reinduce radioiodine uptake in adult humans with metastatic or locally advanced non-medullary radioiodine refractory thyroid carcinoma.
