  • Theranostics of osteosarcoma and lung metastasis with new integrin αvβ3 receptor targeted radiotracers

    ObjectiveTo investigate the value of integrin αvβ3 targeted microPET/CT imaging with 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD2 as radiotracer for the detection of osteosarcoma and theranostics of osteosarcoma lung metastasis.MethodsThe 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD2 and 177Lu-NODAGA-RGD2 were prepared via one-step method and their stability and integrin αvβ3 binding specificity were investigated in vitro. Forty-one nude mice were injected with human MG63 osteosarcoma to established the animal model bearing subcutaneous osteosarcoma (n=21), osteosarcoma in tibia (n=5), and osteosarcoma pulmonary metastatic (n=15). The microPET-CT imaging was carried out in 3 animal models at 1 hour after tail vein injection of 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD2. Biodistribution study of 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD2 was performed in animal model bearing subcutaneous osteosarcoma at 10, 60, and 120 minutes. The animal model bearing pulmonary metastatic osteosarcoma was injected with 177Lu-NODAGA-RGD2 at 7 weeks after model establishment to observe the therapeutic effect of pulmonary metastatic osteosarcoma. Histological and immunohistochemistry examinations were also done to confirm the establishment of animal model and integrin β3 expression in animal models bearing subcutaneous osteosarcoma and bearing pulmonary metastatic osteosarcoma.Results68Ga-NODAGA-RGD2 and 177Lu-NODAGA-RGD2 had good stability in vitro with the 50% inhibitory concentration value of (5.0±1.1) and (6.5±0.8) nmol/L, respectively. The radiochemical purity of 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD2 at 1, 4, and 8 hours was 98.5%±0.3%, 98.3%±0.5%, and 97.9%±0.4%; while the radiochemical purity of 177Lu-NODAGA-RGD2 at 1, 7, and 14 days was 99.3%±0.7%, 98.7%±1.2%, and 96.0%±2.8%. 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD2 microPET-CT showed that the accumulation of 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD2 in animal models bearing subcutaneous osteosarcoma and osteosarcoma in tibia and in lung metastasis as small as 1-2 mm in diameter of animal model bearing pulmonary metastatic osteosarcoma. Biodistribution study of 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD2 in animal model bearing subcutaneous osteosarcoma revealed rapid clearance from blood with tumor peak uptake of (3.85±0.84) %ID/g at 120 minutes. The distribution of 177Lu-NODAGA-RGD2 in lung metastasis was similar with 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD2. The number and size of osteosarcoma metastasis decreased at 2 weeks after 177Lu-NODAGA-RGD2 administration and integrin targeting specificity was confirmed by pathology examination.Conclusion68Ga-NODAGA-RGD2 was potential for positive imaging and early detection of osteosarcoma and metastasis. Targeted radiotherapy with 177Lu-NODAGA-RGD2 was one potential alternative for osteosarcoma lung metastasis.

  • A brief review and update on radioactive iodine-131 treatment for differentiated thyroid cancer

    The administration of radioactive iodine-131 (131I) is one of the representative traditional targeted therapy for post-surgical differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). As DTC tumor cells largely preserve the capability of thyroid follicular epithelial cells, including the expression of the sodium iodide symporter (NIS), 131I can be selectively internalized by these cells once introduced into the body. The simultaneous emitting of both γ-ray and β-ray from 131I featured its unique theranostic value in managing DTC, through γ-ray to detect the residual thyroid tissue and DTC lesions via nuclear medical imaging, while through β-ray to yield the precise tumoricidal effect as well as remnant thyroid ablation. This theranostic potential of 131I significantly enhances progression-free survival, disease-specific survival, and overall survival in DTC patients with residual/recurrent/metastatic lesions as long as they are capable of iodine uptake. Nevertheless, the clinical application of 131I, despite its “precise” treatment philosophy, remains far from precision medicine while clinical practice, which urges further refinement in pre-treatment assessment, dosage tailoring, and post-treatment efficacy evaluation to fully capitalize on its theranostic benefits. Recently, with the accumulation of evidence-based medical data, 131I treatment has evolved with respect to treatment principles, pre-treatment risk stratification, post-treatment dynamic assessment, and comprehensive patient management, with an aim to optimize the diagnostic and therapeutic precision of 131I. Here we briefly review and update the recent advance on 131I management on DTC.
