The Efficacy and Safety of Sorafenib Treatment on Radioiodine-Reftactory Metastatic Differantiated Thyroid Carcinomas: A Single Center Experience

Abstract

Differentiated thyroid carcinomas (DTC) are originated from thyroid follicular epithelial cells and comprises %90 of all thyroid carcinomas. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of sorafenib treatment on iodine refractory metastatic differentiated thyroid carcinomas. Six patients who have received sorafenib treatment due to refractory metastatic DTC were included in the study. During follow-up skin rashes were the most frequent adverse effect after sorafenib treatment followed by hypertension, high ventricular rate atrial fibrillation and esophagitis. Skin lesions were mild and occurred in the first month of the treatment, after dose reduction symptoms resolved within 1 month. One patient had died of pericardial effusion and two patients had died of progressive pulmonary metastasis. Progressive disease was observed in 3 patients, stable disease in 1 patient and partial response in 1 patient after treatment.Although the efficacy of sorafenib is higher than the conventional chemotherapeutics, it should be used in experienced centers because of the possible side effects that can develope and patients should be informed about those side effects.
