Selpercatinib Pre-RAI in Patients With RET Fusion Thyroid Cancer (RAISE)

Selpercatinib to Enhance RAI Avidity in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With Newly Diagnosed Differentiated Thyroid Cancers Harboring RET Fusions


Sponsor

Children's Hospital of Philadelphia

Enrollment

13 participants

Start Date

Jul 29, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common form of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). The traditional first line treatment for patients with advanced DTC after surgical resection is radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy. However, less than a quarter of patients with lung metastases will achieve a complete response to RAI therapy, and this therapy carries the risk of pulmonary fibrosis and an increasingly recognized risk of secondary malignancies.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study (RAISE) is testing whether a targeted drug called selpercatinib can help prepare the thyroid cancer to better respond to radioactive iodine treatment (RAI) — a common therapy for thyroid cancer — in young patients whose cancer has a specific genetic mutation called a RET fusion. **You may be eligible if...** - You are between 2 and 25 years old - You have been diagnosed with differentiated thyroid cancer after thyroidectomy (thyroid removal) - Your cancer has a RET gene fusion mutation - Your chest CT shows multiple small lung nodules or other evaluable disease meeting specific criteria **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You are outside the 2–25 age range - Your cancer does not have a RET fusion - Your disease does not meet the imaging criteria at enrollment Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
