Trametinib in Increasing Tumoral Iodine Incorporation in Patients With Recurrent or Metastatic Thyroid Cancer (NCT02152995)

A Phase 2 Study of Trametinib in Combination With Radioiodine (RAI) for RAS Mutant or RAS/RAF Wild-Type, RAI-Refractory Recurrent and/or Metastatic Thyroid Cancers

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Phase2 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: National Cancer Institute (NCI)

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This phase II trial studies how well trametinib works in increasing tumoral iodine incorporation in patients with thyroid cancer that has come back or spread to another place in the body. Trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and may help make treatment with iodine I-131 more effective.
