lead-radioisotopes and Bone-Neoplasms

To summarise data with radium-223 dichloride (. Literature for this systematic review was identified using a PubMed search: ("targeted alpha therapy" or "targeted alpha particle therapy") or (213-bismuth or bismuth-213 or 213Bi) or (225-actinium or actinium-225 or 225Ac) or (211-astatine or astatine-211 or 211At) or (212-lead or lead-212 or 212Pb) or (227-thorium or thorium-227 or 227Th) or (223-radium or radium-223 or 223Ra or alpharadin) and (malignancy or cancer). Results were limited to English-language publications in humans, with the article type "clinical trial".. Forty-one publications were included (30 from the literature search and 11 from manual searches/reviews). In clinical trials in mCRPC,

New treatments combating bone and extraskeletal metastases are needed for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The majority of metastases overexpress prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), making it an ideal candidate for targeted radionuclide therapy.. The aim of this study was to test a novel liquid 224Ra/212Pb-generator for the rapid preparation of a dual-alpha targeting solution. Here, PSMA-targeting ligands are labelled with 212Pb in the 224Ra-solution in transient equilibrium with daughter nuclides. Thus, natural bone-seeking 224Ra targeting sclerotic bone metastases and 212Pb-chelated PSMA ligands targeting PSMA-expressing tumour cells are obtained.. Two PSMA-targeting ligands, the p-SCN-Bn-TCMC-PSMA ligand (NG001), specifically developed for chelating 212Pb, and the most clinically used DOTA-based PSMA-617 were labelled with 212Pb. Radiolabelling and targeting potential were investigated in situ, in vitro (PSMA-positive C4-2 human prostate cancer cells) and in vivo (athymic mice bearing C4-2 xenografts).. NG001 was rapidly labelled with 212Pb (radiochemical purity >94% at concentrations of ≥15 μg/ml) using the liquid 224Ra/212Pb-generator. The high radiochemical purity and stability of [212Pb]Pb- NG001 were demonstrated over 48 hours in the presence of ascorbic acid and albumin. Similar binding abilities of the 212Pb-labelled ligands were observed in C4-2 cells. The PSMA ligands displayed comparable tumour uptake after 2 hours, but NG001 showed a 3.5-fold lower kidney uptake than PSMA- 617. Radium-224 was not chelated and, hence, showed high uptake in bones.. A fast method for the labelling of PSMA ligands with 212Pb in the 224Ra/212Pb-solution was developed. Thus, further in vivo studies with dual tumour targeting by alpha-particles are warranted.

Statistical analysis of bone tumor growth rates as a function of age at initiation of radiation-induced skeletal malignancies in our animal colony indicated that the p value for an association between these parameters was <0.05, suggesting a correlation in beagle dogs. The youngest animals appeared to exhibit the most slowly growing tumors, and the trend was toward more rapidly growing tumors with increasing age. Less effective immune systems in older animals were invoked as a possible explanation of this relationship.
