Abstract

The recent development of 225Ac-PSMA617 for therapy of prostate cancer has strikingly demonstrated the clinical potential of targeted alpha therapy. Further promising applications of the alpha emitters 225Actinium and its daughter nuclide 213Bismuth include the therapy of brain tumors, bladder cancer, neuroendocrine tumors, and leukemia. This paper will provide a brief overview on the current status of the clinical development of compounds labelled with 225Ac or 213Bi and describe the various production routes that are in place or are under development to meet the increasing demand for these radionuclides.

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.
