National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Phase 2
2004-10-01
Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of sorafenib tosylate in treating patients who have
locally advanced, metastatic, or locally recurrent thyroid cancer. Sorafenib tosylate may

stopping blood flow to the tumor.
Romidepsin in Treating Patients With Recurrent and/or Metastatic Thyroid Cancer That Has Not Responded to Radioactive Iodine
Completed
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Phase 2
2004-10-01
This phase II trial is studying how well romidepsin works in treating patients with recurrent
and/or metastatic thyroid cancer that has not responded to radioactive iodine. Romidepsin may
stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It
may also help radioactive iodine and chemotherapy work better by making tumor cells more
sensitive to the drug
