This white paper examines the potential of pioneering technologies and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven solutions in advancing clinical trials involving radiotherapy. As the field of radiotherapy evolves, the integration of cutting-edge approaches such as radiopharmaceutical dosimetry, FLASH radiotherapy, image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT), and AI promises to improve treatment planning, patient care, and outcomes. Additionally, recent advancements in quantum science, linear energy transfer/relative biological effect (LET/RBE), and the combination of radiotherapy and immunotherapy create new avenues for innovation in clinical trials.

Article Synopsis
  • - The Lancet Oncology Commission focuses on improving global access to radiotherapy and theranostics, addressing significant disparities between high-income countries and low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) concerning available treatment resources and trained healthcare professionals.
  • - The implementation of hypofractionation techniques in radiotherapy could increase treatment access for millions of patients with prostate and breast cancer, highlighting the need for new technologies in LMICs with existing resources.
  • - A global survey revealed variability in the use of radiopharmaceutical therapy, with issues related to supply chains and workforce training impacting access; initiatives like the International Atomic Energy Agency's Rays of Hope program and investment from development banks are encouraged to improve the situation.

Article Synopsis
  • F-Flotufolastat is a newly approved diagnostic imaging drug targeting prostate cancer, evaluated in the SPOTLIGHT clinical trial, which aimed to understand its detection rates based on clinical factors in men suspected of prostate cancer recurrence.* -
  • The study involved 389 men and found that detection rates increased significantly with higher baseline prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, identifying lesions in 39% of those with prior radical prostatectomy and 43% of those with prior radiation therapy.* -
  • Despite varying PSA doubling times and pathologic grades, the detection rates remained consistently high across different patient categories, suggesting effectiveness of F-flotufolastat across a wide range of clinical scenarios.*

Introduction: Amyloidosis, including cerebral amyloid angiopathy, and markers of small vessel disease (SVD) vary across dominantly inherited Alzheimer's disease (DIAD) presenilin-1 (PSEN1) mutation carriers. We investigated how mutation position relative to codon 200 (pre-/postcodon 200) influences these pathologic features and dementia at different stages.

Methods: Individuals from families with known PSEN1 mutations (n = 393) underwent neuroimaging and clinical assessments.
