Brief Summary
This is a two part study; part A proposes to collect plasma samples to examine how ctDNA (circulating thyroid DNA) markers correlate with detection of recurrent disease, response to therapy, clinical outcome and pathological data. Part B aims to use tissue obtained from biopsies of primary or recurrent disease to establish cell lines and tumour explants to further investigate the biology of thyroid cancer in the preclinical setting

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Primary Objective
Part A: blood and tumour tissue will be measured to determine molecular profiling.
3 Years (at the end of study)
Primary Objective
Part B: blood and tumour tissue will be assessed to establish cell lines and to determine patient derived xenograft (PDX) models of thyroid cancer
3 years (at end of study)
