ABSTRACT

Objective : Current guidelines have advised against the performance of 131I-iodide diagnostic whole body scintigraphy (dxWBS) to minimize the occurrence of stunning, and to guarantee the efficiency of radioiodine therapy (RIT). The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of stunning on the efficacy of RIT and disease outcome.Subjects and methods : This retrospective analysis included 208 patients with differentiated thyroid cancer managed according to a same protocol and followed up for 12-159 months (mean 30 ± 69 months). Patients received RIT in doses ranging from 3,700 to 11,100 MBq (100 mCi to 300 mCi). Post-RIT-whole body scintigraphy images were performed 10 days after RIT in all patients. In addition, images were also performed 24-48 hours after therapy in 22 patients. Outcome was classified as no evidence of disease (NED), stable disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD).Results : Thyroid stunning occurred in 40 patients (19.2%), including 26 patients with NED and 14 patients with SD. A multivariate analysis showed no association between disease outcome and the occurrence of stunning (p = 0.3476).Conclusion : The efficacy of RIT and disease outcome do not seem to be related to thyroid stunning.

Objetivo : As diretrizes atuais alertam contra a execução da cintigrafia de corpo inteiro com iodo-131 (dxWBS) para minimizar a ocorrência de atordoamento e garantir a eficiência do tratamento com radioiodo (RIT). O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o impacto do atordoamento sobre a eficácia do RIT e desfechos da doença.Sujeitos e métodos : Esta análise retrospectiva incluiu 208 pacientes com câncer diferenciado de tireoide submetidos ao mesmo protocolo e acompanhados por 12-159 semanas (média de 30 ± 69 meses). Os pacientes receberam RIT com doses variando de 3.700 a 11.100 MBq (100 mCi a 300 mCi). As imagens da cintigrafia após a RIT foram feitas 10 dias depois da RIT em todos os pacientes. Além disso, as imagens foram também obtidas após 24-48h em 22 pacientes. O desfecho foi classificado como nenhuma evidência de doença (NED), doença estável (SD) e doença progressiva (PD).Resultados : O atordoamento da tireoide ocorreu em 40 pacientes (19,2%), incluindo 26 pacientes com NED e 14 pacientes com SD. A análise multivariada não mostrou associação entre o desfecho da doença e a ocorrência de atordoamento (p = 0,3476).Conclusão : A eficácia da RIT e o desfecho da doença não parecem estar relacionados com o atordoamento da tireoide.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the efficacy of cumulative doses (CDs) of 131I-iodide therapy (RIT) in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The probability of progressive disease according to CDs was evaluated in patients < 45 years old and > 45 years old and correlated to tumor-node-metastasis (TNM), thyroglobulin values, histological types and variants, age, and zduration of the disease. RESULTS: At the end of a follow-up period of 69 ± 56 months, 85 out of 150 DTC patients submitted to fixed doses RIT had no evidence of disease, 47 had stable disease and 18 had progressive disease. Higher CDs were used in the more aggressive variants (p < 0.0001), higher TNM stages (p < 0.0001), and follicular carcinomas (p = 0.0034). Probability of disease progression was higher with CDs > 600 mCi in patients > 45 years old and with CDs > 800 mCi in patients < 45 years. CONCLUSION: Although some patients may still respond to high CDs, the impact of further RIT should be carefully evaluated and other treatment strategies may be warranted.


OBJETIVO: Avaliar a eficácia de doses cumulativas (DCs) da terapia com iodeto-131I (RIT) no câncer diferenciado de tiroide (CDT). SUJEITOS E MÉTODOS: A probabilidade de doença em progressão conforme a DC foi calculada em pacientes com idade < 45 e > 45 anos e correlacionada com o TNM, valores de tiroglobulina sérica, tipos histológicos e variantes, idade e tempo de doença. RESULTADOS: Ao final de um seguimento de 69 ± 56 meses, 85 dos 150 pacientes CDT submetidos a doses fixas de RIT não tinham evidência de doença, 47 tinham doença estável e 18, doença progressiva. DCs mais elevadas foram usadas nas variantes agressivas (p < 0,0001), maior estágio TNM (p < 0,0001) e nos carcinomas foliculares (p = 0,0034). A probabilidade de doença em progressão foi maior com DCs > 600 mCi em pacientes > 45 anos e com DCs > 800 mCi em pacientes < 45 anos. CONCLUSÃO: Apesar de alguns pacientes ainda responderem a altas DCs, o impacto de RITs deve ser cuidadosamente avaliado e outras estratégias terapêuticas devem ser consideradas.
