Introduction: Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor of the thyroid and accounts for 1%-2% of thyroid cancers in the United States. MTCs present with locoregional metastasis in 50% of patients and distant metastasis in 10%-15% at diagnosis. Treatment options for recurrent or progressive disease according to RECIST 1.1 criteria, are limited. Tyrosine kinase-inhibitors (TKI) are preferred as first-line systemic therapy. Although somatostatin analogues (SSA) may play a role in MTC, limited evidence is available.
