Anlotinib in Locally Advanced or Metastatic Radioiodine-Refractory Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter Phase II Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Alhough antiangiogenic agents are the bedrock of treatment for radioiodine-refractory differentiated thyroid carcinoma (RAIR-DTC), novel antiangiogenic agents with optimized features like greater target-binding affinities and more favorable pharmacokinetics profile are needed. This phase II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial investigated the efficacy and safety of anlotinib, a multikinase inhibitor, for RAIR-DTC.

Patients and methods

Patients (ages between 18 and 70 years) with pathologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic RAIR-DTC were enrolled and randomly received 12 mg anlotinib once daily or placebo on day 1 to 14 every 3 weeks. Patients on placebo were allowed to receive open-label anlotinib after disease progression. The primary endpo
