| Abstract | Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a rare type of thyroid malignancy that accounts for approximately 1–2% of all thyroid cancers (TCs). MTC include hereditary and sporadic cases, the former derived from a germline mutation of rearrangement during transfection (RET) proto-oncogene, whereas somatic RET mutations are frequently present in the latter. Surgery is the standard treatment for early stage MTC, and the 10-year survival rate of early MTC is over 80%. While for metastatic MTC, chemotherapy showing low response rate, and there was a lack of effective systemic therapies in the past. Due to the high risk (ca. 15–20%) of distant metastasis and limited systemic therapies, the 10-year survival rate of patients with advanced MTC was only 10–40% from the time of first metastasis. Over the past decade, targeted therapy for RET has developed rapidly, bringing hopes to patients with advanced and progressive MTC. Two multi-kinase inhibitors (MKIs) including Cabozantinib and Vandetanib have been shown to increase progression-free survival (PFS) for patients with metastatic MTC and have been approved as choices of first-line treatment. However, these MKIs have not prolonged overall survival (OS) and their utility is limited due to high rates of off-target toxicities. Recently, new generation TKIs, including Selpercatinib and Pralsetinib, have demonstrated highly selective efficacy against RET and more favorable side effect profiles, and gained approval as second-line treatment options. Despite the ongoing development of RET inhibitors, the management of advanced and progressive MTC remains challenging, drug resistance remains the main reason for treatment failure, and the mechanisms are still unclear. Besides, new promising therapeutic approaches, such as novel drug combinations and next generation RET inhibitors are under development. Herein, we overview the pathogenesis, molecular genetics and current management approaches of MTC, and focus on the recent advances of RET inhibitors, summarize the current situation and unmet needs of these RET inhibitors in MTC, and provide an overview of novel strategies for optimizing therapeutic effects. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
