A phase II study of encorafenib in combination with binimetinib in patients with metastatic BRAF-mutated thyroid cancer in Japan
CONCLUSIONS: Treatment with encorafenib plus binimetinib met the primary endpoint criteria and demonstrated clinical benefit in patients with BRAFV600E-mutated thyroid cancer regardless of its histological type, such as DTC or ATC, with no new safety concerns identified. Encorafenib plus binimetinib could thus be a new treatment option for BRAF V600-mutated thyroid cancer.PMID:38343359 | DOI:10.1089/thy.2023.0547 (Source: Thyroid : official journal of the American Thyroid Association)

GLP-1 receptor agonists and thyroid cancer: a narrative review
CONCLUSIONS: Evidence from randomized controlled trials indicates occurrence of thyroid cancer is infrequent in individuals exposed to GLP-1 RA. Observational studies at higher risk of bias yield inconsistent results. Overall there is no conclusive evidence of elevated thyroid cancer risk. These findings can help clinicians when addressing patient's concerns about a potential yet unproven link between GLP-1 RA therapy and thyroid cancer. .PMID:38343381 | DOI:10.1089/thy.2023.0530 (Source: Thyroid : official journal of the American Thyroid Association)

Clinical Features and Outcomes of Myxedema Coma in Patients Hospitalized for Hypothyroidism: Analysis of the United States National Inpatient Sample
CONCLUSION: In summary, myxedema coma remains a clinically significant diagnosis in the modern era, independently associated with high mortality and health care costs. This continued burden demonstrates a need for further efforts to prevent, identify, and optimize treatment for patients with myxedema coma.PMID:38279788 | DOI:10.1089/thy.2023.0559 (Source: Thyroid : official journal of the American Thyroid Association)

CHEK2 founder variants and thyroid cancer risk
CONCLUSIONS: Our analyses of unselected patients with NMTC suggest that CHEK2 variants c.1100del and c.470T>C/p.I157T have only a modest impact on thyroid cancer risk. These results provide important information for providers regarding the relatively low magnitude of thyroid cancer risk associated with these CHEK2 variants.PMID:38279823 | DOI:10.1089/thy.2023.0529 (Source: Thyroid : official journal of the American Thyroid Association)

A long-term study comparing the quality of life and psychological status of patients with highly suspicious thyroid nodules ≤ 1 cm undergoing active surveillance with those undergoing immediate surgery
CONCLUSION: Patients with highly suspicious sub-centimeter thyroid nodules who choose IS tend to experience a poorer long-term QoL compared to those who choose AS. Although the situation may improve over time, certain issues might persist, making AS a favorable option for these patients.PMID:38269424 | DOI:10.1089/thy.2023.0478 (Source: Thyroid : official journal of the American Thyroid Association)
