DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Medullary Thyroid Cancer - Pipeline Review, H2 2016" drug pipelines to their offering.
'Medullary Thyroid Cancer - Pipeline Review, H2 2016'; Medullary Thyroid Cancer pipeline therapeutics constitutes close to 17 molecules. Out of which approximately 12 molecules are developed by Companies and remaining by the Universities/Institutes.
Furthermore, the publisher says: Medullary Thyroid Cancer Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is a form of thyroid cancer that originates from the parafollicular cells of the thyroid gland. The parafollicular cells secrete the hormone calcitonin. The calcitonin hormone works together with the parathyroid hormone (a protein hormone secreted by parathyroid cells) to regulate calcium levels in the body.
The symptoms associated with MTC are similar to other forms of thyroid cancer. They include a visible lump (nodule), the sensation of a lump with swallowing, hoarseness or enlarged lymph nodes that do not go away. Treatment includes options such as chemotherapy, surgery, biological therapy and radiation therapy.
The report 'Medullary Thyroid Cancer - Pipeline Review, H2 2016' outlays comprehensive information on the therapeutics under development for Medullary Thyroid Cancer, complete with analysis by stage of development, drug target, mechanism of action (MoA), route of administration (RoA) and molecule type; that are being developed by Companies / Universities.
It also reviews of key players involved in therapeutic development for Medullary Thyroid Cancer and features dormant and discontinued projects. Currently, The molecules developed by Companies in Phase III, Phase II and Preclinical stages are 1, 8 and 3 respectively. Similarly, the Universities portfolio in Preclinical and Discovery stages comprises 3 and 2 molecules, respectively.
