Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety, dosimetry, and apparent receptor occupancy (RO) of [(64)Cu]DOTA-patritumab, a radiolabeled monoclonal antibody directed against HER3/ERBB3 in subjects with advanced solid tumors.

Procedures: Dosimetry subjects (n = 5) received [(64)Cu]DOTA-patritumab and underwent positron emission tomography (PET)/X-ray computed tomography (CT) at 3, 24, and 48 h. Evaluable RO subjects (n = 3 out of 6) received [(64)Cu]DOTA-patritumab at day 1 and day 8 (after 9.0 mg/kg patritumab) followed by PET/CT at 24 h post-injection. Endpoints included safety, tumor uptake, and efficacy.

Results: The tumor SUVmax (± SD) was 5.6 ± 4.5, 3.3 ± 1.7, and 3.0 ± 1.1 at 3, 24, and 48 h in dosimetry subjects. The effective dose and critical organ dose (liver) averaged 0.044 ± 0.008 mSv/MBq and 0.46 ± 0.086 mGy/MBq, respectively. In RO subjects, tumor-to-blood ratio decreased from 1.00 ± 0.32 at baseline to 0.57 ± 0.17 after stable patritumab, corresponding to a RO of 42.1 ± 3.

Conclusions: [(64)Cu]DOTA-patritumab was safe. These limited results suggest that this PET-based method can be used to determine tumor-apparent RO.

Background: Gallium-68 positron emission tomography (Ga-PET) with the two registered somatostatin analogs, [Ga]Ga-DOTA-Tyr-octreotide ([Ga]Ga-DOTA-TOC) and [Ga]Ga-DOTA-Tyr-octreotate ([Ga]Ga-DOTA-TATE), where DOTA = 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid, is routinely used for imaging of somatostatin receptor (SST)-expressing tumors. We investigated copper-61 (Cu) as an alternative radiometal for PET imaging of SST-expressing tumors. Compared to gallium-68, copper-61 (t = 3.

A Monte Carlo study comparing dead-time losses of a gamma camera between tungsten functional paper and lead sheet for dosimetry in targeted radionuclide therapy with Lu-177.

Objective: Dead-time loss is reported to be non-negligible for some patients with a high tumor burden in Lu-177 radionuclide therapy, even if the administered activity is 7.4 GBq. Hence, we proposed a simple method to shorten the apparent dead time and reduce dead-time loss using a thin lead sheet in previous work.

Background: Phenomenological relative biological effectiveness (RBE) models for proton therapy, based on the dose-averaged linear energy transfer (LET), have been developed to address the apparent RBE increase towards the end of the proton range. The results of these phenomenological models substantially differ due to varying empirical assumptions and fitting functions. In contrast, more theory-based approaches are used in carbon ion radiotherapy, such as the microdosimetric kinetic model (MKM).

Background: In recent years, targeted alpha therapy has gained importance in the clinics, and in particular, the alpha-emitter Ac plays a fundamental role in this clinical development. Nevertheless, depending on the chelating system no real diagnostic alternative has been established which shares similar chemical properties with this alpha-emitting radionuclide. In fact, the race to launch a diagnostic radionuclide to form a matched pair with Ac is still open, and La features attractive radiation properties to claim this place.

Radionuclide Solid:liquid partitioning in an aged, reducing-grout wasteform recovered from a disposal facility.

J Environ Radioact

Savannah River National Laboratory, Building 773A, Aiken, SC, 29808, USA. Electronic address:

The Saltstone Disposal Facility on the Savannah River Site in South Carolina disposes of Low-Level Waste in a reducing-grout waste form. Reducing grout is presently being evaluated as a subsurface disposal waste form at several other locations in the United States, as well as in Europe and Asia. The objective of this study was to collect core samples directly from the Saltstone Disposal Facility and measure desorption distribution coefficients (K; radionuclide concentration ratio of saltstone:liquid; (Bq/kg)/Bq/L)) and desorption apparent solubility values (k; radionuclide aqueous concentration (moles/L)).
