Brief Summary
This is a phase Ib trial that studies personalized network pharmacology-based drug repurposing in patients with advanced thyroid cancer who have no other treatment options. The main objective is to study if it is feasible and safe to give patients individualized drug combinations selected based on their tumor genetic profile. The secondary objective is to find out whether these treatments can help control the growth of the patient tumors or stop them from getting worse.

Study Arms (1)
Personalized network-pharmacology-based combination therapy
EXPERIMENTALPatients with advanced thyroid cancer undergo tumor molecular profiling using to identify personalized drug repurposing treatments. All drugs are administered at authorized therapeutic doses according to the summary of product characteristics. Treatment regimens vary between patients depending on the identified molecular profile.
Interventions
The therapy will consist of (one or more) approved drugs.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients with locally advanced or metastatic TC (such as ATC, PDTC, and RAI refractory DTC progressive under treatment with multikinase inhibitors) for whom no approved conventional treatments are available.
- Prior anticancer treatment-related toxicities resolved to Grade ≤1 (CTCAE v5.0).
- Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1
- ECOG performance status ≤ 2
- Negative pregnancy test within 7 days prior to starting the study in women of childbearing potential and adequate use of contraception.
You may not qualify if:
- Inability to provide informed consent
- Inability to obtain a (new) biopsy for molecular profiling
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- Other active malignancies requiring therapy.
- Neutropenia (ANC \< 1.5 × 10⁹/L).
- Severe uncontrolled medical conditions (renal, cardiac, liver, respiratory).
