Targeted radionuclide therapy: frontiers in theranostics.
The concept of targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT) relies on the use of injected nuclear medicine as treating agents, targeted at the cellular or molecular level. The growth of the interest in TRT was stimulated by the advances in radionuclide production and labeling as well as by the improvement in the knowledge of appropriate and specific molecular targets. In recent years, different studies ...
متن کاملTheranostics: radionuclide imaging and therapy in neuroendocrine tumours
Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are a heterogeneous group with significant variation in morphological characteristics and functional behaviour. This poses challenges in terms of both biochemical and imaging assessment. Somatostatin receptor (sst) overexpression is documented in several malignancies. The sst subtype 2 (sst2) is overexpressed in NETs [1] and can be targeted for both somatostatin re...
متن کاملCancer Theranostics: An Introduction
Theranostics is a portmanteau of therapeutics and diagnostics. It can be diagnosis followed by therapy to stratify patients who will likely respond to a given treatment. It can also be therapy followed by diagnosis to monitor early response to treatment and predict treatment efficacy. It is also possible that diagnostics and therapeutics are codeveloped. For example, nanoplatforms can be design...
متن کاملMagnetic Nanoparticles in Cancer Theranostics
In a report from 2008, The International Agency for Research on Cancer predicted a tripled cancer incidence from 1975, projecting a possible 13-17 million cancer deaths worldwide by 2030. While new treatments are evolving and reaching approval for different cancer types, the main prevention of cancer mortality is through early diagnosis, detection and treatment of malignant cell growth. The las...
