Emerging management and its impact on radioiodine refractory differentiated thyroid cancer / 中国实用外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Differentiated thyroid cancer(DTC) generally carries good prognosis through standard treatment. While,it could dedifferentiate into radioiodine refractory differentiated thyroid cancer(RAIR-DTC),which progresses rapidly with high mortality and limited treatment methods. Recently,along with the increasing of studies on genetic features,signal transduction pathways and immune microenvironment of RAIR-DTC,as well as the development of new radionuclide tracers,more theoretical bases have been provided for the targeted therapy of RAIR-DTC.
