About this trial

This is a phase Ib trial that studies personalized network pharmacology-based drug repurposing in patients with advanced thyroid cancer who have no other treatment options. The main objective is to study if it is feasible to give patients individualized drug combinations selected based on their tumor genetic profile. The secondary objective is to find out whether these treatments are safe and can help control the growth of the patient tumors or stop them from getting worse.
