Recruiting PHASE3 Thyroid Cancer

Compares treatment options for Thyroid Cancer

Official title A Study of AL2846 Capsule Versus Placebo in the Treatment of Advanced Radioiodine-Refractory Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06860971

What this study is testing

What is AL2846 Capsules?

AL2846 Capsules is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for thyroid cancer.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This study aims to demonstrate that, in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic iodine - refractory differentiated thyroid cancer who have failed previous VEGFR - targeted therapy, AL2846 can significantly prolong progression - free survival (PFS) compared with placebo.
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug.

What rules you out
