Protocol summary

Summary
For radioiodine ablation in differentiated thyroid cancer patients, low dose of Iodine 131(30 milli-curies) is recommended for low risk patients and for high risk ones, high dose iodine 131(100 milli-curies or more) is recommended; however, there is no prompt recommendation for optimal dose of radioiodine ablation in intermediate risk patients. This study is aimed to compare the treatment efficacy of low versus high dose radioiodine therapy in intermediate risk thyroid cancer patients. This study will be carried out on 110 adult patients who place in intermediate risk category of differentiated thyroid carcinoma . They will be devided in two groups each containing 55 patients and will receive 30 or 150 milli-curies of I131 orally in one session, being randomized. After radioiodine therapy, They will be followed for1 year. The treatment response will be evaluated based on the laboratory data, ultrasonography and the diagnostic whole body iodine scan (if performed), after 1 year according to the new response assessment criteria based on the last published version of American Thyroid Association guidelines. The therapeutic response will be either excellent response, acceptable response or incomplete response. So, the therapeutic response of high(150 milli-curies) and low dose(30 milli-curies) radioiodine ablation in intermediate risk differentiated thyroid cancer patients will be evaluated and compared. Also, the possible relationshisp between age, sex, the first serum thyroglobulin and anti thyroglobulin levels with the therapeutic response will be illustrated, too.
