Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
* TOPS study only: all patients with A, AB, B1, B2, B3 without areas of carcinoma histology, diagnosed during or after 2018, that do not have a fresh tissue sample and screen failures of the RELEVENT and BIOTET study;
* TRY registry: all patients with TETs diagnosed, treated or followed from 2010 to 2017 included (retrospective data collection);
* BIOTET only: all patients with A, AB, B1, B2, B3 without areas of histology of the carcinoma that have a fresh tissue sample;
* RELEVENT only: all patients with thymoma B3 and areas of carcinoma and pa-tients with thymic carcinoma who do not have a fresh tissue sample.
Patients with thymic carcinoma or thymoma B3 with areas of carcinoma will receive a centralized pathological review of the tumour block or slides and will be screened to participate in the Phase II RELEVENT pharmacological study.Histological diagnosis will be confirmed before screening.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

* Uncontrolled metabolic disorders or other non-malignant organ or systemic diseases or secondary effects of cancer that induce a high medical risk and/or make assessment of survival uncertain.
* Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or study drug administration and in the judgment of the investigator would make the patient ineligible for entry into this study.
* significant third-space fluid retention (for example, ascites or pleural effusion), and is not amenable for required repeated drainage
17. known allergy or hypersensitivity reaction to any of the treatment components
18. known history of active drug abuse
