Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Progression-free Survival to Determine the 6-month Progression-free-survival (PFS) Rate | 6 months | Progression-free survival to determine the 6-month progression-free-survival (PFS) rate |
| Primary | Radiographic Response Rate of Aflibercept in Patients With Recurrent and/or Metastatic Thyroid Cancer That Did Not Respond to Radioactive Iodine Therapy | After 8 weeks of study therapy | Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions \& assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + P RMeasurable lesions are defined as those that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as ≥ 20 mm with conventional techniques (CT, MRI, x-ray) or as ≥ 10 mm with spiral CT scan. All tumor measurements must be recorded in millimeters (or decimal fractions of centimeters). All other lesions (or sites of disease), including small lesions (longest diameter \< 20 mm with conventional techniques or \< 10 mm using spiral CT scan), are considered non-measurable disease. Bone lesions, leptomeningeal disease, ascites, pleural/pericardial effusions, lymphangitis cutis/pulmonis, inflammatory breast disease, abdominal masses (not followed by CT or MRI), \& cystic |
