Papillary Thyroid Cancer Treatment Options |
---|
- Pharmacologic medical therapies for papillary thyroid cancer include thyroid-suppression therapy, and/or targeted therapy.
Thyroid-suppression therapy
Targeted therapy
- This type of treatment is done using:[2][3]
- Sorafenib, an Sorafenib is an orally active, multityrosine kinase inhibitor.
- Lenvatinib, an orally active, multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor.[4]
- Adult
- Preferred regimen: Lenvatinib 24 mg PO daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
- Alternative regimen: Sorefenib 400 mg PO q12h until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
- Alternative regimen: Larotrectinib 100 mg PO q12h until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
- Alternative regimen: Entrectinib 600 mg PO daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
