The Future of Radioligand Therapy: α, β, or Both?

Haberkorn, Uwe, Giesel, Frederik, Morgenstern, Alfred, Kratochwil, Clemens·2017·Journal of Nuclear Medicine

Abstract

Endoradiotherapy approaches are experiencing growing interest with the increase in the number of carrier molecules becoming available for different targets. The cross-fire effect has been described as an important mechanism for the efficacy of radioligand therapies by particle-induced destruction of

  • Due to the range of β particles, emitted β particles traverse several cells (10-1000), an effect termed 'cross-fire effect' that is responsible for possible destruction of multiple cells in the vicinity of the tracer-accumulating cell.

    “Due to the range of the β particles in comparison to the diameter of a cell, the emitted β particles traverse several cells (10–1000) [30]. This effect has been termed “cross-fire effect” and is responsible for the possible destruction of multiple cells in the vicinity of the tracer-accumulating cell [31].”
  • A radiation-induced bystander effect occurs: cells not directly exposed to ionizing radiation but in the neighborhood of such cells behave as if they have been directly hit.

    “Another therapeutic effect is the radiation-induced bystander effect: Cells that have not been directly exposed to ionizing radiation, but are in the neighborhood of such cells, behave as if they have been directly hit [31].”

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.
