BIO-TERTTERT promoter mutation (C228T or C250T) in papillary or follicular thyroid carcinoma — adverse prognostic marker; synergistic mortality risk when co-occurring with BRAF V600EIIB
  • SRC-NCCN-THYROID-2025: Level Category 2A (Supports, Poor Outcome)
  • SRC-ATA-THYROID-2015: Level B (Supports, Poor Outcome)
TERT promoter mutations (C228T or C250T) occur in ~10–15% of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and ~15–20% of follicular thyroid cancer (FTC). TERT mutation is a strong adverse prognostic marker in differentiated thyroid cancer. Key evidence: Xing et al. (NEJM 2014 correspondence / JAMA Oncol): BRAF V600E + TERT promoter mutation creates a synergistic mortality risk — patients with both mutations have ~40× higher disease-specific mortality vs those with neither (BRAF+TERT double-positive: ~68% 10-yr mortality vs ~2% wild-type). TERT alone or BRAF alone: intermediate risk. ATA 2015 guidelines incorporate BRAF V600E as a risk-stratification factor; ESMO/NCCN 2025 updates recommend TERT testing alongside BRAF to identify the highest-risk PTC subgroup. Therapeutic implication: TERT-mutant/BRAF-mutant PTC should receive more aggressive radioiodine (RAI) therapy and enhanced surveillance. RAI-refractory TERT/BRAF-double- mutant PTC may benefit from kinase inhibitors (sorafenib, lenvatinib). No TERT-specific inhibitor approved for thyroid cancer. ESCAT IIB: established prognostic biomarker; no direct therapeutic target, but guides treatment intensity.Radioactive iodine (RAI) — intensified dosing strategy for TERT+BRAF double-positive PTC (consider 150–200 mCi therapeutic dose with TSH stimulation for high-risk features)
lenvatinib 24 mg PO QD — for RAI-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (SELECT trial; FDA 2015); TERT mutation predicts RAI-refractoriness; not TERT-specific approval
sorafenib 400 mg PO BID — RAI-refractory DTC (DECISION trial; FDA 2013; alternative to lenvatinib)
