Abstract

A method for construction and operation of an 225Ac/213Bi generator capable of producing 25-100 mCi of 213Bi suitable for clinical antibody labeling is described. The generator has been designed to have an effective lifetime of several weeks, producing up to six therapeutic doses of radionuclide per day. To date, 57 clinical doses have been prepared and injected into patients using the described 213Bi generator. Factors such as radiation damage, radioprotection, iodide eluate chemistry, radiolabeling chemistry and radionuclide purity are addressed.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The short mean free path of 225Ac, together with the complexity and timing of its decay relative to radiopharmaceutical stability, uptake and clearance, makes measurement of 225Ac activity very difficult.

    “The short mean free path of 225Ac (110), as well as the complexity and timing of 225Ac decay in relation to its radiopharmaceutical stability, uptake and clearance makes measurement of 225Ac activity very difficult.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
