The Thyrogen solution should be injected within three hours,
however the Thyrogen solution will stay chemically stable for up to 24 hours,
The efficacy and safety of Thyrogen for use with radioiodine imaging together with serum thyroglobulin testing for the diagnosis of thyroid remnants
The published studies showed that using Thyrogen was also effective in low-risk patients when leftover tissue was detected only by measuring thyroglobulin levels and that it was
Using this Tg criterion, 18/21 patients(86%) and 23/24 patients(96%) had thyroid remnants successfully ablated in the THST withdrawal group and the Thyrogen treatment group, respectively.
Tg testing after Thyrogen administration assures the highest sensitivity for detection of thyroid remnants or cancer.
However, Thyrogen has the advantage of allowing patients to remain on their replacement therapy before the test is carried out,
Thyrogen can also be used in combination with radioactive iodine to ablate(eliminate)
Thyrogen is indicated for pre-therapeutic stimulation in combination with a range of 30 mCi(1.1 GBq)
When Thyrogen is given with higher doses of radioactive iodine in ablation therapy, the iodine is also given 24 hours after the final Thyrogen injection, but the scan to see if all remaining cells have been ablated will need to be carried out after a longer delay a few days.
In both studies, patients were randomised to 1 of 4 treatment groups: Thyrogen+ 30 mCi 131-I, Thyrogen+ 100 mCi 131-I,
suggests that elimination of Thyrogen is significantly slower in dialysis-dependent end stage renal disease(ESRD) patients, resulting in prolonged
In summary, these studies suggest that low dose radioiodine plus thyrotropin alpha is an effective treatment(with reduced radiation exposure) and Thyrogen was non-inferior to thyroid hormone withdrawal for pre-therapeutic stimulation in combination with radioiodine for post-surgical ablation of thyroid remnant tissue.
including one key study that compared the effect of Thyrogen and the effect of stopping replacement therapy in 394 patients who were followed up for around two
Due to elevation of TSH levels after Thyrogen administration patients with metastatic thyroid cancer particularly in confined spaces such as the brain,
all 32 patients(100%) treated after Thyrogen administration had either no visible uptake of radioiodine in the thyroid bed or, if visible, thyroid bed uptake<
of thyroid remnants with 100 mCi/3.7 GBq(± 10%) radioiodine in post-thyroidectomy patients with thyroid cancer, were comparable for patients treated after thyroid hormone withdrawal versus patients treated after Thyrogen administration.
were comparable for patients treated after withdrawal of THST versus patients treated after Thyrogen administration.
Thyrogen thyrotropin alfa.
