Preoperative PRRT versus surgical cytoreduction alone in metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors to the liver: A Phase II multi-institutional trial

Cancer Neuroendocrine Tumors Adult Subjects Female Subjects Male Subjects

Doctors and researchers leading this study hope to learn more about peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) in combination with cytoreduction (surgically removing tumors). They hope to learn if combining PRRT in combination with cytoreduction would be more effective than cytoreduction alone. PRRT itself is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for people with PanNETs however the combination with cytoreduction is considered experimental. Your participation in this research will last about 2 years. The purpose of this research is to gather information on the safety and effectiveness of PRRT.

COH-Thyroid Nodule Diagnosis and Management

Cancer Endocrinology Thyroid Cancer Thyroid Disorders Adult Subjects

This trial studies how well the diagnostic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation signature works in detecting thyroid cancer in patients with thyroid nodules. Using diagnostic testing, such as the diagnostic DNA methylation signature, may be a less invasive way to check for thyroid cancer.
