What's in a Label? Radioimmunotherapy for metastatic prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer has a highly tumor-restricted prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and may be the ideal solid-organ malignancy for treatment with radioimmunotherapy. Encouraging results using lutetium-177-labeled anti-PSMA monoclonal antibody J591 from a phase II study by Tawaga and colleagues support the continued clinical and preclinical development of radioimmunotherapy for solid tumors.
متن کاملTargeting tomoregulin for radioimmunotherapy of prostate cancer.
Radiotherapy is an effective approach for the treatment of local prostate cancer. However, once prostate cancer metastasizes, radiotherapy cannot be used due to the distribution of multiple metastases to lymph nodes and bones. In contrast, radioimmunotherapy should still be efficacious in metastatic prostate cancer as radioisotopes are brought to tumor cells by targeting antibodies. Here we ide...

Purpose: Over 31,000 Americans die of androgen-independent metastatic prostate cancer each year. New strategies that do not involve hormonal manipulation but instead recognize the biochemical and molecular characteristics of prostate cancer are needed. Radioimmunotherapy (RIT) uses a tumor-specific monoclonal antibody to deliver systemic, targeted radiation to cancer. The objectives of this Pha...

only orchiectomy is still commonly used today either as a single therapy or in combination regimens. hypophysectomy & adrenalectomy showed such devastating effects on the endocrine equilibrium as to be inconsistent with an acceptable quality of life or even with survival. chemical adrenalectomy was also tried with drugs (eg. aminoglutethmide, spironolactone) leading to consequences superimposab...
متن کاملEnhancement of the therapeutic index: from nonmyeloablative and myeloablative toward pretargeted radioimmunotherapy for metastatic prostate cancer.
PURPOSE New strategies that target selected molecular characteristics and result in an effective therapeutic index are needed for metastatic, hormone-refractory prostate cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN A series of preclinical and clinical studies were designed to increase the therapeutic index of targeted radiation therapy for prostate cancer. (111)In/90Y-monoclonal antibody (mAb), m170, which ta...
