Molecular and clinical features of papillary thyroid cancer in adult patients with a non-classical phenotype

Molecular and clinical features of papillary thyroid cancer in adult patients with a non-classical phenotype

Source : https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fendo.2023.1138100/full

PurposeGenotyping is fundamental in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and helps to enhance diagnosis and prognosis and determine appropriate treatments. The phenotype-genotype association in PTC was previously studied, with BRAF V600E...

Conclusions: Our study retrospectively screened a large cohort of different thyroid tissue samples, and presented the histopathological and genetic features of a non-classical phenotype of PTC from 24 patients. It may contribute to diagnose in PTC, and patients of these non-classical phenotype may benefit from targeted therapy, compared...

Selpercatinib Controls Central Nervous System Disease in Patients With NSCLC With RET Fusion

Relevance: In clinical aspects, early initiation of selpercatinib is associated with decreased rates of CNS metastasis formation and progression; therefore, selpercatinib may play a preventive role.

The incidence of thyroid cancers has significantly increased over the last several decades, in part due to the frequent use of thyroid ultrasound diagnosing more cases of this disease. Despite...

Conclusions/Relevance: Molecular testing for driver mutations or gene fusions, such as BRAF V600E or RET or NTRK fusions, has become standard recommendations for RAIR DTC patients due to excellent treatment options with highly selective targeted therapies, most RAIR DTC patients do not harbor such aberrations or...

Summary: RET-MAP provides RWE on treatment outcomes for patients with RET+ lung cancer. This study offers a lens into the natural history of this disease across different stages of cancer and various treatment types. Although phase 3 studies comparing frontline RET TKI to standard of care are ongoing (NCT04222972, NCT04819100), FDA approved...
