Medullary Thyroid Cancer: Understanding

Medullary Thyroid Cancer: Overview

Medullary thyroid cancer, or MTC, is a cancer that forms in the thyroid. The thyroid is a gland located in the front of neck, just below the Adam’s apple. It is responsible for sending out hormones to the rest of body. The inside of the thyroid is called the medulla. The medulla contains special cells called para follicular C cells that produce and release hormones. MTC happens when the C cells become cancerous and grow out of control. MTC may also be called medullary thyroid carcinoma. Thyroid cancer is fairly common. There are four different types of thyroid cancers and MTC is the rarest type making up 3% to 4% of all thyroid cancers. About 1,000 people are diagnosed with MTC each year in the U.S. MTC can start as a lump in the throat. The tumor growing in the thyroid can make voice hoarse by blocking vocal chords or it can make it hard to breathe by blocking windpipe.Medullary thyroid cancer can, and frequently does, spread (metastasize) to lymph nodes (in lymphatic system) and other organs, including lungs, liver, bones, brain, signs and symptoms of medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) includes a nodule (lump) on the upper part of thyroid gland (75% to 95% of people have this at diagnosis),swollen lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy) in neck (70% of people have this at diagnosis) an enlarged thyroid nodule, which can cause hoarseness, difficulty swallowing or breathing issues (this is less common),and in some cases, people have MTC for a long time before they notice symptoms because the tumor remains small.

Medullary carcinoma of the thyroid constitutes approximately 4% to 10% of all thyroid cancers in the United States. As opposed to the sporadic medullary thyroid cancer which is usually unilateral, the medullary thyroid cancer associated with multiple MEN syndromes is usually multicentric and bilateral. Often these tumors involve the upper portions of both lobes because the C cells reside predominantly in the upper poles of the thyroid gland. Paraneoplastic syndromes like Cushing syndrome and carcinoid syndrome can occur as medullary thyroid cancer, and can also produce hormones such as corticotropin, serotonin, prostaglandins, and melanin.Medullary thyroid cancer usually presents as a lump or nodule on thyroid gland. It may notice it or healthcare provider may discover it during a routine neck examination. Sometimes, the nodule is discovered incidentally (accidentally) by imaging tests get for other medical reasons. Imaging tests, fine needle aspiration (needle biopsy), and blood tests. The main treatment for MTC is surgery to remove entire thyroid gland (total thyroidectomy).

Treatment of MTC has other than surgery, the healthcare provider may recommend other treatments, includes Radiation therapy, Chemotherapy, Targeted therapies that act on changes in DNA found in some cases of MTC. MTC is usually more aggressive than the other more common types of thyroid cancer. It’s usually easier to treat and manage if it’s found before it spreads to lymph nodes in neck or other parts of body. Many people develop medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) for no known reason (known as sporadic cases), so prevention isn’t possible.

Medullary Thyroid Cancer Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Medullary Thyroid Cancer report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Medullary Thyroid Cancer Emerging Drugs

Regorafenib: Bayer HealthCare

Regorafenib is an oral, small-molecule, multi-kinase inhibitor developed by Bayer HealthCare that targets angiogenic (VEGFR1-3, TIE2), stromal (PDGFR-β, FGFR), and oncogenic receptor tyrosine kinases (RET, RAF, and KIT). It was originally developed for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer. Regorafenib blocks several kinase proteins that either help tumor cells grow or help form new blood vessels to feed the tumor. Blocking these proteins can help stop the growth of cancer cells. The drug is under Phase II stage of development as an oral tablet formulation for the treatment of Medullary Thyroid Cancer (MTC). Currently, the drug is in Phase II stage of its development for the treatment of Medullary Thyroid Cancer.

TY-1091: TYK Medicines, Inc

TY-1091 as a novel next-generation RET inhibitor through the in-house RET program and systemic screening of RET compound candidates. TY-1091 was characterized for its anti-tumor activity through in vitro and in vivo testing of a variety of RET-dependent tumor models including a panel of 17 engineered RET mutant Ba/F3 cell lines and 2 cancer cell models.Currently, the drug is in Phase I/II stage of its development for the treatment of Medullary Thyroid Cancer.

APS-03118: Applied Pharmaceutical Science

APS03118 is the next-generation of selective RET inhibitor that independently developed by APS. APS03118 is a potential best-in-class program with stronger anti-tumor activity and better tolerability compared to other RET inhibitors in preclinical internal head-to-head studies. At present, APS03118 clinical trials has been approved by FDA and NMPA. Currently, the drug is in preclinical stage of its development for the treatment of Medullary Thyroid Cancer.
