Small scale renal dosimetry for alpha particle radiopharmaceutical therapy of metastatic breast cancer with 225Ac-7.16.4

cover
Metastatic disease requires a systemic approach to therapy. Alpha particle radiopharmaceutical therapy (Alpha-RPT) is a new modality that is figuring prominently in pre-clinical and clinical studies. 225Ac-7.16.4 for pulmonary metastases in a murine metastatic breast cancer model showed high therapeutic efficacy. Despite a low calculated absorbed dose to the whole kidney, renal toxicity was observed in the treated animals. Renal toxicity thresholds established by external beam and targeted radiopeptide therapy is 25-30 Gy. The purpose was to use histological and Alpha Camera images to determine the activity concentration and distribution for 225Ac-7.16.4 and unbound 213Bi at sub organ level. Alpha Camera imaging was performed for small scale dosimetry of the kidneys using a previously developed nephron-based dosimetry model.
