ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying whether taking selenium yeast capsules can help improve the outcomes for patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. Researchers believe that selenium, a mineral that the thyroid gland needs, may play a role in protecting the thyroid and possibly even fighting cancer. The trial will look at how selenium supplementation might affect the prognosis of patients who have been diagnosed with this type of cancer and whether it can help prevent the cancer from coming back or spreading.

To be eligible for the study, participants must be between 18 and 75 years old, have been diagnosed with differentiated thyroid cancer after surgery, and must give their consent to participate. Women who can become pregnant need to use contraception during the study. Those with certain health issues, such as severe heart or liver problems, or who are pregnant or breastfeeding, will not be allowed to join. Participants in the study will take selenium yeast capsules and be monitored to see how it affects their health over time. This trial is still in the planning stages and has not yet started recruiting participants.
