Prognostic Biomarkers for Papillary Thyroid Cancer: Reducing Overtreatment, Improving Clinical Efficiency, and Enhancing Patient Experience

Abstract Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), the most prevalent form of thyroid malignancy, is generally indolent but poses a recurrence risk of 10%-15%, leading to a clinical paradox: the need to…

Prognostication With Thyroid GuidePX® in the Context of Tall Cell Variants

The tall cell variant of papillary thyroid cancer generally has a worse prognosis compared with the classical variant. Thyroid GuidePx is a genomic classifier capable of classifying papillary thyroid cancer into 3 molecular subtypes using fine-needle aspirate. Type 1 and 2 have low recurrence rates, particularly in early tumors (1–4 cm and N0). Type 3 is characterized by aggressive biology and high recurrence rates regardless of size and lymph node status. The study examines the interaction of tall cell variant histology with Thyroid GuidePx risk stratification.

A Clinically Useful and Biologically Informative Genomic Classifier for Papillary Thyroid Cancer [2023]

Clinical management of papillary thyroid cancer depends on estimations of prognosis. Standard care, which relies on prognostication based on clinicopathologic features, is inaccurate. We applied a machine learning algorithm (HighLifeR)…
