Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Progression free survival (PFS)
Progression-free survival (PFS) after radiotherapy is evaluated with CT-scan and 18F FDG PET-scan. Also laboratory tests are performed (HTG serum level evaluation in case of biochemical recurrence).
6 months
Secondary Outcomes (1)
toxicities
6 months
Study Arms (1)
differentiated thyroid cancer
Patients with locally recurrent thyroid cancer, treated with radical radiotherapy after total thyroidectomy +/- central compartment and/or laterocervical lymphadenectomy, previously treated with one or more cycles of 131 Iodine-ablation (RAI) and TSH suppression.
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with locally recurrent thyroid cancer, treated with radical external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) after total thyroidectomy +/- central compartment and/or laterocervical lymphadenectomy, previously treated with one or more cycles of 131 Iodine-ablation (RAI) and TSH suppression.
You may qualify if:
- detectable thyroglobulin (Tg),
- negative post-metabolic radiotherapy whole body scintigraphy,
- no surgical indications.
You may not qualify if:
- prior radiotherapy in the head and neck area
- pregnancy
