Targeted Alpha-Particle Immunotherapy with Bismuth-213 and Actinium-225 for Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Lintuzumab, a humanized anti-CD33 antibody, targets myeloid leukemia cells and has modest activity against acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To increase the antibody’s potency yet avoid nonspecific cytotoxicity seen with -emitting isotopes, lintuzumab was conjugated to the -emitters bismuth-213 (213Bi) and actinium-225 (225Ac). The 46-minute half-life of 213Bi limits its widespread use. Therefore...
متن کاملAlpha-particle emitting atomic generator (Actinium-225)-labeled trastuzumab (herceptin) targeting of breast cancer spheroids: efficacy versus HER2/neu expression.
PURPOSE The humanized monoclonal antibody, trastuzumab (Herceptin), directed against HER2/neu, has been effective in the treatment of breast cancer malignancies. However, clinical activity has depended on HER2/neu expression. Radiolabeled trastuzumab has been considered previously as a potential agent for radioimmunotherapy. The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy of trastuz...
متن کاملTargeted actinium-225 in vivo generators for therapy of ovarian cancer.
Advanced ovarian cancer is largely incurable, but initially it is frequently confined to the i.p. space. We explored i.p. radioimmunotherapy in a mouse model of human ovarian cancer. Use of a targeted actinium-225 ((225)Ac) in vivo generator of alpha particles exploits the extreme, selective cytotoxicity of alpha particles, while providing a feasible half-life to enable delivery to tumor. (225)...
متن کاملDevelopmental trends in targeted radionuclide therapy of neuroendocrine tumors
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) constitute a heterogeneous group of neoplasms including carcinoids, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, pituitary tumors, medullary thyroid carcinoma and phaeochromocytomas. The symptoms and the outcome of NETs differ considerably between patients depending on several factors. By labelling tracers with a radioisotope, the tracer acts as a ...
متن کاملromantic education:reading william wordsworths the prelude in the light of the history of ideas
عصر روشنگری زمان شکل گیری ایده های مدرن تربیتی- آموزشی بود اما تاکید بیش از اندازه ی دوشاخه مهم فلسفی زمان یعنی عقل گرایی و حس گرایی بر دقت و وضوح، انسان عصر روشنگری را نسبت به دیگر تواناییهایش نابینا کرده و موجب به وجود آمدن افرادی تک بعدی شد که افتخارعقلانیتشان، تاکید شان بر تجربه فردی، به مبارزه طلبیدن منطق نیاکانشان وافسون زدایی شان از دنیا وتمام آنچه با حواس پنجگانه قابل درک نبوده و یا در ...
