  • HER2-targeted radioimmunotherapy using radionuclides conjugated to trastuzumab delivers localized radiation directly to tumor cells, enhancing treatment efficacy and reducing systemic side effects.

    “Conjugating radionuclides to trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody specific to HER2 receptors, has demonstrated the potential to deliver localized radiation directly to tumor cells, enhancing treatment efficacy and reducing systemic side effects [96].”

    From Radiopharmaceuticals: navigating the frontier of precision medicine and therapeutic innovation (2024) · cites this paper as [96]

    The introduction identifies trastuzumab as an anti-HER2 antibody and describes linking antibodies to radioisotopes to target tumour cells, with the promise of greater efficacy and less toxicity (page unavailable). But the “The protein” section discusses anti-HER2 antibodies with external-beam radiation and trastuzumab with chemotherapy—not radionuclides conjugated to trastuzumab. The copy therefore does not establish those claimed benefits for a trastuzumab–radionuclide conjugate. (LLM, conf=0.88)

  • The cross-fire effect is critical for the improvement of tumor dose homogeneity and for ensuring a sufficient dose for each cell.

    “Using β particle emitters, the cross-fire effect is critical for the improvement of tumor dose homogeneity and for ensuring a sufficient dose for each cell [32].”

    From Lutathera®: The First FDA- and EMA-Approved Radiopharmaceutical for Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (2019) · cites this paper as [32]

    In “The radionuclide” (page unavailable), the paper says β-emitter crossfire provides therapeutic benefit and can bypass tumour-antigen heterogeneity, making uniform targeting of a lesion possible when the emission range exceeds its radius. This supports improved coverage, but the paper does not say crossfire ensures a sufficient dose for each cell; it also notes limitations for single-cell and disseminated disease. (LLM, conf=0.84)

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.
