Clinical Trial: STAGE-MTC Trial Thyroid Lobectomy With Ipsilateral Central Neck Dissection

U.S., May 29 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07612293) titled 'STAGE-MTC Trial Thyroid Lobectomy With Ipsilateral Central Neck Dissection' on May 18.

Brief Summary: This clinical trial studies how well thyroid lobectomy with ipsilateral central neck dissection works to treat medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) in patients without a germline RET mutation (sporadic). Currently, sporadic and germline RET (rearranged during transfection) mutation positive MTCs that are limited to the thyroid are managed in the same way, complete surgical removal of the entire thyroid gland (total thyroidectomy) with surgical removal of lymph nodes and other tissues on both sides of the neck (bilateral central neck dissec...
