Since I see "thyroid" in it, I would have to assume your friends thyroid could be impacted with treatment. He should get a full blood count done including thyroid and testosterone levels prior to any treatment. As with any type of cancer by going to the countrys top comprehensive cancer centers or one of the hospitals on the NCI list would probably be your friends best place to get treated. Im not aware of any research going on for this specific condition but Im sure an internet search would come up with where to find something like that.
Best wishes to your friend.
