PG - 1174-1179 LID - 10.1089/thy.2017.0663 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Dysregulation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway is frequent in advanced follicular (FTC) and poorly differentiated thyroid (PDTC) carcinomas and has been implicated in oncogenesis and tumor progression. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of buparlisib, a pan-PI3K inhibitor in radioiodine refractory FTC and PDTC. METHODS: The primary endpoint of this open-label, multicenter, phase 2 pilot study was progression-free survival (PFS) at 6 months. The sample size was determined considering that a PFS
