NCT02862470 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 22

Last updated 2021-07-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators expected to enroll 30 patients with papillary, follicular or anaplastic thyroid cancer, and collect their urine samples before operation, immediately after operation, post-operative 3, 6 12 months. The investigators will analyze the urine exosomal proteins and probable biological markers. The investigators hope to find the prognostic biological markers via this prospective study. The investigators further hope to find newly therapeutic mechanism and medications for such patients with poorly-differentiated or anaplastic thyroid cancer.
