Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The incidence of thyroid cancer (TC) is increasing worldwide and new strategy treatments are needed. Treatments against TC are based on the subtypes of TC; differentiated TC usually has a good prognosis, unlike dedifferentiated TC of which the prognosis is not so promising, and require a more challenging approach. Among the approved therapies for TC, for aggressive radioiodine-resistant papillary or follicular TC, multi-targeted kinase inhibitors sorafenib, lenvatinib and cabozantinib have been approved. New compounds acting against specific mutations such as dabrafenib and trametinib have been recently approved for the treatment of BRAFV600E-mutated anaplastic TC.
Lately, new advancements in the molecular field are permitting to choose appropriate and patient-tailored therapy for the treatment of thyroid cancer.
