Trial summary

Thyroid cancer patients who have undergone total thyroidectomy, postoperative iodine 131 treatment to ablation residual thyroid tissue, is the current clinical practice. The effective half-life of the iodine 131 in the human body and in vivo exposure dose can be assessed by the in vivo kinetic model published by ICRP… Read more about this study

About this study

Thyroid cancer patients who have undergone total thyroidectomy, postoperative iodine 131 treatment to ablation residual thyroid tissue, is the current clinical practice. The effective half-life of the iodine 131 in the human body and in vivo exposure dose can be assessed by the in vivo kinetic model published by ICRP, but this model is based on standard healthy people and can not be corrected for patients undergoing total thyroidectomy.

In this study, the investigators will use the actual clinical data to revise the biokinetic model of iodine-131 in patients with total thyroidectomy.

Read the detailed description

Methods Patients:All patients undergoing thyroidectomy and are about to be treated with iodine 131 30mCi will be invited to join the study. Exclusion with gastrointestinal surgery.

Preparation:The patient of this study, their medication and diet and other matters needing attention, are in accordance with the original to accept iodine -131 30mCi treatment of the standard treatment.

Imaging Protocol:After oral administration of iodine 131, patients must undergo whole body scan, for 1 hour, 4 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 168 hours, respectively. Image collection will use GE Infinia Hawkeye 4 SPECT / CT with high energy general purpose collimator. The imaging parameters use the original I-131 whole body scan protocol.

Expected results:Image data is further analyzed by MATLAB software to obtain iodine 131 in the body of individual organs of the biological half-life and path strength percentage. This analysis can revise the iodine -131 biokinetic model of patients with total thyroidectomy, providing more accurate calculations and subsequent studies.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Thyroidectomy, run by Far Eastern Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The I-131 distributed among the internal organs after the dose administration can be thoroughly analyzed according to a revised MATLAB program. (time frame: After oral administration of iodine 131, patients must undergo whole body scan, for 1 hour, 4 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 168 hours, respectively.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Feb 2022.
