Authors' conclusion

This randomized clinical trial showed that SNA001 was noninferior to THW plus 3.7 GBq RAI in patients with predominantly intermediate-risk DTC. SNA001 also demonstrated a favorable safety profile compared with THW and had a lower incidence of adverse events.

Study context

Population
Patients aged 18 to 70 years with intermediate-risk differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) after total or near-total thyroidectomy, without distant metastasis; 19 sites in Chinarandomized 1:1
Participants
307 patients
Comparison
SNA001 vs thyroid hormone withdrawal, plus 3.7 GBq RAI
  • SNA001n = 154
  • Thyroid hormone withdrawal (THW)n = 153reference
Primary endpoint
Success rate of RAI therapy: negative diagnostic whole-body scan and stimulated thyroglobulin <1.0 ng/mL
Follow-up
6 to 8 months after RAI therapy
Methodological detailsnoninferiority, open-label, phase 3, multicentre (19 sites in China), Conducted April 16, 2020, to September 9, 2021; follow-up 8 months
