Conditions

Differentiated Thyroid Cancer

Brief summary

This is a randomized, open, parallel controlled, multi-center clinical trial; 120 subjects were randomly assigned to the test group and the control group according to 3:1.

Detailed description

This study was conducted in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer who had undergone near-total thyroidectomy. After surgery patients were randomized to one of two methods of performing thyroid remnant ablation (use of radioiodine to remove any remaining thyroid tissue). One group of patients who took thyroid hormone medicine and were euthyroid \[i.e. their thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels are normal\], and received injections of Thyrogen (0.9 mg daily on two consecutive days) followed by oral radioiodine. The second group of patients did not take thyroid hormone medicine so that they were hypothyroid (i.e. their TSH levels were high), and were given oral radioiodine. All patients received the same amount of radioactive iodine (30mCi±1.5mCi or 1.11GBq of 131I). Approximately 9 months later, whole body scans were performed on all patients to learn whether the thyroid remnants had been successfully ablated.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Ablation success rate by Diagnostic Whole Body Scan (DxWBS)at week 36In the THW state (TSH≥30mU/L), DxWBS showed the proportion of subjects who did not see radioactive iodine uptake in the thyroid gland.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Serum thyroglobulin (Tg) levelsat week 36In the THW state (TSH≥30mU/L), the proportion of patients with Tg levels \<1ng/mL and neck B-ultrasound negative during rhTSH stimulation accounted for all subjects.
