  • Patients must show evidence of disease progression by RECIST using site assessment of CT/MRI scans within 6 months (+ 1 month to allow for variances in patients scanning intervals) prior to study entry.
  • Patients with DTC must be 131-I refractory/resistant disease: never demonstrated 131-I uptake or progression despite 131-I uptake, or cumulative dose of 131-I of > 600 mCi (last dose given at least 6 months prior to study entry).
  • Well controlled blood pressure prior to study entry.
  • Signed informed consent.
