ABSTRACT
Clinical management of radioiodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RR-DTC) is extremely diffcult. Re-differentiation compounds, such as retinoids, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) agonists, DNA methyltransferase inhibitors and histone deacetylase inhibitors, have been used in trials to increase iodine uptake in RR-DTC. However, data on these drugs failed to meet the initial high expectations. In recent years, targeted agents have been increasingly used in pre-clinical and clinical studies to induce re-differentiation and mediate131I therapy, and the outcomes are encouraging.
