RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To introduce a biomarker-based dosimetry method for the rational selection of a treatment activity for patients undergoing radioactive iodine 131I therapy (RAI) for metastatic differentiated thyroid cancer (mDTC) based on single-timepoint imaging of individual lesion uptake by 124I PET. METHODS: Patients referred for RAI therapy of mDTC were enrolled in institutionally approved protocols. A total of 208 mDTC lesions (in 21 patients) with SUVmax > 1 underwent quantitative PET scans at 24, 48, 72, and 120 h post-administration of 222 MBq of theranostic NaI-124I to determine the individual lesion radiation-absorbed dose. Using a general estimating equation, a prediction curve for biomarker development was generated in the form of a best-fit regression line and 95% prediction interval, correlating individual predicted lesion radiation dose metrics, with candidate biomarkers ("predictors") such as SUVmax and activity in microcurie per gram, from a single imaging timepoint. RESULTS: In the 169 lesions (in 15 patients) that received 131I therapy, individual lesion cGy varied over 3 logs with a median of 22,000 cGy, confirming wide heterogeneity of lesion radiation dose. Initial findings from the prediction curve on all 208 lesions confirmed that a 48-h SUVmax was the best predictor of lesion radiation dose and permitted calculation of the 131I activity required to achieve a lesional threshold radiation dose (2000 cGy) within defined confidence intervals. CONCLUSIONS: Based on MIRD lesion-absorbed dose estimates and regression statistics, we report on the feasibility of a new single-timepoint 124I-PET-based dosimetry biomarker for RAI in patients with mDTC. The approach provides clinicians with a tool to select personalized (precision) therapeutic administration of radioactivity (MBq) to achieve a desired target lesion-absorbed dose (cGy) for selected index lesions based on a single 48-h measurement 124I-PET image, provided the selected activity does not exceed the maximum tolerated activity (MTA) of < 2 Gy to blood, as is standard of care at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

PURPOSE: Intraventricular compartmental radioimmunotherapy (cRIT) with 131-I-omburtamab is a potential therapy for recurrent primary brain tumors that can seed the thecal space. These patients often previously received external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) to a portion or full craniospinal axis (CSI) as part of upfront therapy. Little is known regarding outcomes after re-irradiation as part of multimodality therapy including cRIT. This study evaluates predictors of response, patterns of failure, and radiologic events after cRIT. METHODS: Patients with recurrent medulloblastoma or ependymoma who received 131-I-omburtamab on a prospective clinical trial were included. Extent of disease at cRIT initiation (no evidence of disease [NED] vs measurable disease [MD]) was assessed as associated with progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) by Kaplan-Meier analysis. RESULTS: All 27 patients (20 medulloblastoma, 7 ependymoma) had EBRT preceding cRIT: most (22, 81%) included CSI (median dose 2340 cGy, boost to 5400 cGy). Twelve (44%) also received EBRT at relapse as bridging to cRIT. There were no cases of radionecrosis. At cRIT initiation, 11 (55%) medulloblastoma and 3 (43%) ependymoma patients were NED, associated with improved PFS (p = 0.002) and OS (p = 0.048) in medulloblastoma. Most relapses were multifocal. With medium follow-up of 3.0 years (95% confidence interval, 1.8-7.4), 6 patients remain alive with NED. CONCLUSION: For patients with medulloblastoma, remission at time of cRIT was associated with significantly improved survival outcomes. Relapses are often multifocal, particularly in the setting of measurable disease at cRIT initiation. EBRT is a promising tool to achieve NED status at cRIT initiation, with no cases of radiation necrosis.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the yttrium-90 (90Y) activity distribution in biopsy tissue samples of the treated liver to quantify the dose with higher spatial resolution than positron emission tomography (PET) for accurate investigation of correlations with microscopic biological effects and to evaluate the radiation safety of this procedure. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eighty-six core biopsy specimens were obtained from 18 colorectal liver metastases (CLMs) immediately after 90Y transarterial radioembolization (TARE) with either resin or glass microspheres using real-time 90Y PET/CT guidance in 17 patients. A high-resolution micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) scanner was used to image the microspheres in part of the specimens and allow quantification of 90Y activity directly or by calibrating autoradiography (ARG) images. The mean doses to the specimens were derived from the measured specimens' activity concentrations and from the PET/CT scan at the location of the biopsy needle tip for all cases. Staff exposures were monitored. RESULTS: The mean measured 90Y activity concentration in the CLM specimens at time of infusion was 2.4 ± 4.0 MBq/mL. The biopsies revealed higher activity heterogeneity than PET. Radiation exposure to the interventional radiologists during post-TARE biopsy procedures was minimal. CONCLUSIONS: Counting the microspheres and measuring the activity in biopsy specimens obtained after TARE are safe and feasible and can be used to determine the administered activity and its distribution in the treated and biopsied liver tissue with high spatial resolution. Complementing 90Y PET/CT imaging with this approach promises to yield more accurate direct correlation of histopathological changes and absorbed dose in the examined specimens.

BACKGROUND: I-123 meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) imaging has long been employed to noninvasively assess the integrity of human norepinephrine transporter-1 and, hence, myocardial sympathetic innervation. Positron-emitting F-18 meta-fluorobenzylguanidine (MFBG) has recently been developed for potentially superior quantitative characterization. We assessed the feasibility of MFBG imaging of myocardial sympathetic innervation. METHODS: 16 patients were imaged with MFBG PET (30-minute dynamic imaging of chest, followed by 3 whole-body acquisitions between 30 minutes and 4-hour post-injection). Blood kinetics were assessed from multiple samples. Pharmacokinetic modeling with reversible 1- and 2-compartment models was performed. Kinetic rate constants were re-calculated from truncated datasets. All patients underwent concurrent MIBG SPECT. RESULTS: MFBG myocardial uptake was rapid and sustained; the mean standardized uptake value (SUV (mean ± standard deviation)) was 5.1 ± 2.2 and 3.4 ± 1.9 at 1 hour and 3-4-hour post-injection, respectively. The mean K1 and distribution volume (VT) were 1.1 ± 0.6 mL/min/g and 34 ± 22 mL/cm3, respectively. Both were reproducible when re-calculated from truncated 1-hour datasets (Intraclass Correlation Coefficient of 0.99 and 0.91, respectively). Spearman's ϱ = 0.86 between MFBG SUV and VT and 0.80 between MFBG PET-derived VT and MIBG SPECT-derived heart-to-mediastinum activity concentration ratio. CONCLUSION: MFBG is a promising PET radiotracer for the assessment of myocardial sympathetic innervation.

PURPOSE: Sorafenib has demonstrated anti-tumor efficacy and radiosensitizing activity preclinically and in breast cancer. We examined sorafenib in combination with whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) and explored the [18F] 3'deoxy-3'-fluorothymidine (FLT)-PET as a novel brain imaging modality in breast cancer brain metastases. METHODS: A phase I trial of WBRT + sorafenib was conducted using a 3 + 3 design with safety-expansion cohort. Sorafenib was given daily at the start of WBRT for 21 days. The primary endpoints were to determine a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and to evaluate safety and toxicity. The secondary endpoint was CNS progression-free survival (CNS-PFS). MacDonald Criteria were used for response assessment with a correlative serial FLT-PET imaging study. RESULTS: 13 pts were evaluable for dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). DLTs were grade 4 increased lipase at 200 mg (n = 1) and grade 3 rash at 400 mg (n = 3). The MTD was 200 mg. The overall response rate was 71%. Median CNS-PFS was 12.8 months (95%CI: 6.7-NR). A total of 15 pts (10 WBRT + sorafenib and 5 WBRT) were enrolled in the FLT-PET study: baseline (n = 15), 7-10 days post WBRT (FU1, n = 14), and an additional 12 week (n = 9). A decline in average SUVmax of ≥ 25% was seen in 9/10 (90%) of WBRT + sorafenib patients and 2/4 (50%) of WBRT only patients. CONCLUSIONS: Concurrent WBRT and sorafenib appear safe at 200 mg daily dose with clinical activity. CNS response was favorable compared to historical controls. This combination should be considered for further efficacy evaluation. FLT-PET may be useful as an early response imaging tool for brain metastases. TRIAL AND CLINICAL REGISTRY: Trial registration numbers and dates: NCT01724606 (November 12, 2012) and NCT01621906 (June 18, 2012).

PURPOSE: Radioimmunotherapy (RIT) delivered through the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has been shown to be a safe and promising treatment for leptomeningeal metastases. Pharmacokinetic models for intraOmmaya antiGD2 monoclonal antibody 131I-3F8 have been proposed to improve therapeutic effect while minimizing radiation toxicity. In this study, we now apply pharmacokinetic modeling to intraOmmaya 131I-omburtamab (8H9), an antiB7-H3 antibody which has shown promise in RIT of leptomeningeal metastases. METHODS: Serial CSF samples were collected and radioassayed from 61 patients undergoing a total of 177 intraOmmaya administrations of 131I-omburtamab for leptomeningeal malignancy. A two-compartment pharmacokinetic model with 12 differential equations was constructed and fitted to the radioactivity measurements of CSF samples collected from patients. The model was used to improve anti-tumor dose while reducing off-target toxicity. Mathematical endpoints were (a) the area under the concentration curve (AUC) of the tumor-bound antibody, AUC [CIAR(t)], (b) the AUC of the unbound "harmful" antibody, AUC [CIA(t)], and (c) the therapeutic index, AUC [CIAR(t)] ÷ AUC [CIA(t)]. RESULTS: The model fit CSF radioactivity data well (mean R = 96.4%). The median immunoreactivity of 131I-omburtamab matched literature values at 69.1%. Off-target toxicity (AUC [CIA(t)]) was predicted to increase more quickly than AUC [CIAR(t)] as a function of 131I-omburtamab dose, but the balance of therapeutic index and AUC [CIAR(t)] remained favorable over a broad range of administered doses (0.48-1.40 mg or 881-2592 MBq). While antitumor dose and therapeutic index increased with antigen density, the optimal administered dose did not. Dose fractionization into two separate injections increased therapeutic index by 38%, and splitting into 5 injections by 82%. Increasing antibody immunoreactivity to 100% only increased therapeutic index by 17.5%. CONCLUSION: The 2-compartmental pharmacokinetic model when applied to intraOmmaya 131I-omburtamab yielded both intuitive and nonintuitive therapeutic predictions. The potential advantage of further dose fractionization warrants clinical validation. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov , NCT00089245.

PURPOSE: Radiographic changes of brain metastases after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) can signify tumor recurrence and/or radiation necrosis (RN); however, standard imaging modalities cannot easily distinguish between these two entities. We investigated whether 18F-Fluorocholine uptake in surgical samples of the resected lesions correlates with pathologic evidence of recurrent tumor and PET imaging. METHODS: About 14 patients previously treated with SRS that developed radiographic changes were included. All patients underwent a preoperative 40-min dynamic PET/CT concurrent with 392 ± 11 MBq bolus injection of 18F-Fluorocholine. 18F-Fluorocholine pharmacokinetics were evaluated by standardized uptake value (SUV), graphical analysis (Patlak plot; KiP) and an irreversible two-compartment model (K1, k2, k3, and Ki). 12 out of 14 patients were administered an additional 72 ± 14 MBq injection of 18F-Fluorocholine 95 ± 26 minutes prior to surgical resection. About 113 resected samples from 12 patients were blindly reviewed by a neuropathologist to assess the viable tumor and necrotic content, microvascular proliferation, reactive gliosis, and mono- and polymorphonuclear inflammatory infiltrates. Correlation between these metrics 18F-Fluorocholine SUV was investigated with a linear mixed model. Comparison of survival distributions of two groups of patients (population median split of PET SUVmax) was performed with the log-rank test. RESULTS: Exactly 10 out of 12 patients for which surgical samples were acquired exhibited pathologic recurrence. Strong correlation was observed between SUVmax as measured from a surgically removed sample with highest uptake and by PET (Pearson's r = 0.66). Patients with 18F-Fluorocholine PET SUVmax > 6 experienced poor survival. Surgical samples with viable tumor had higher 18F-fluorocholine uptake (SUV) than those without tumor (4.5 ± 3.7 and 2.6 ± 3.0; p = 0.01). 18F-fluorocholine count data from surgical samples is driven not only by the percentage viable tumor but also by the degree of inflammation and reactive gliosis (p ≤ 0.02; multivariate regression). CONCLUSIONS: 18F-Fluorocholine accumulation is increased in viable tumor; however, inflammation and gliosis may also lead to elevated uptake. Higher 18F-Fluorocholine PET uptake portends worse prognosis. Kinetic analysis of dynamic 18F-Fluorocholine PET imaging supports the adequacy of the simpler static SUV metric.

PURPOSE: Ipilimumab induces durable remission in about 15-20% of patients with metastatic melanoma. However, reliable predictors of response to ipilimumab are currently lacking. Whole-body metabolic tumor volume (wMTV) has been shown to be a strong prognostic factor in a variety of malignancies treated with chemotherapy, but few results have been reported for patients treated with immunotherapy. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of wMTV and other metabolic parameters from baseline 18F-FDG PET/CT scans in patients with melanoma being treated with ipilimumab. METHODS: The prognostic impact of wMTV, as well as mean standardized uptake values and total lesion glycolysis, was evaluated in 142 consecutive patients with melanoma treated with single-agent ipilimumab therapy. Metabolic parameters were dichotomized by their respective medians and correlated with overall survival (OS). In addition, the prognostic value of metabolic parameters combined with known clinical prognostic factors was evaluated in multivariate analyses. RESULTS: The median OS time in all patients was 14.7 months (95% CI 10.45-18.93 months). wMTV was a strong independent prognostic factor for OS (p = 0.001). The median survival in patients with a metabolic volume above the median was 10.8 months (95% CI 5.88-15.81 months) as compared with 26.0 months (95% CI 3.02-49.15 months) in patients with an MTV below the median. A multivariate model including wMTV and known clinical prognostic factors, such as age and the presence of brain metastases, further improved the identification of patient subgroups with different OS times. CONCLUSION: wMTV appears to be a strong independent prognostic factor in melanoma patients treated with ipilimumab, and can be determined semiautomatically from routine 18F- FDG PET/CT scans. wMTV, combined with clinical prognostic factors, could be used to personalize immunotherapy and in future clinical studies.

A six-transmembrane epithelial antigen of prostate-1 (STEAP1) is a newly identified target in prostate cancer. The use of radio-labeled STEAP1-targeting antibodies with positron emission tomography (PET) may allow for detection of sites of metastatic prostate cancer and may refine patient selection for antigen-directed therapies. This was a prospective study in seven patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who had at least one archival biopsy that was STEAP1-positive by immunohistochemistry. Patients received intravenous injections of â¼185 MBq and 10 mg of [89Zr]Zr-DFO-MSTP2109A, a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody directed against STEAP1. PET/CT images, blood samples, and whole-body counts were monitored longitudinally in six patients. Here, we report on safety, biodistribution, pharmacokinetics, dose estimates to normal tissues, and initial tumor targeting for this group of patients. There was no significant acute or subacute toxicity. Favorable biodistribution and enhanced lesion uptake (in both bone and soft tissue) were observed on imaging using a mass of 10 mg of DFO-MSTP2109A. The best lesion discrimination was seen at the latest imaging time, a median of 6 days postadministration. Pharmacokinetics showed a median serum T1/2 ß of 198 h, volume of central compartment of 3.54 L (similar to plasma volume), and clearance of 19.7 mL/h. The median biologic T1/2 for whole-body retention was 469 h. The highest mean absorbed doses to normal organs (mGy/MBq) were 1.18, 1.11, 0.78, 0.73, and 0.71 for liver, heart wall, lung, kidney, and spleen, respectively. Excellent targeting of metastatic prostate sites in both bone and soft tissue was observed, with an optimal imaging time of 6 days postadministration. The liver and heart were the normal organs that experienced the highest absorbed doses. The pharmacokinetics were similar to other antibodies without major cross-reactivity with normal tissues. A more detailed analysis of lesion targeting in a larger patient population with correlation to immunohistology and standard imaging modalities has been reported.

PURPOSE: We explored the use of intraventricular 131I-Omburtamab targeting B7-H3 in patients with ETMR. METHODS: Patients were enrolled in an IRB approved, phase 1, 3 + 3 dose escalation trial. Patients with CNS disease expressing the antibody target antigen B7-H3 were eligible. We report on a cohort of three patients with ETMR who were enrolled on the study. Three symptomatic children (ages 14 months, 3 and 3.5 years) had large parietal masses confirmed to be B7-H3-reactive ETMR. Patients received 2 mCi 131I-Omburtamab as a tracer followed by one or two therapeutic 131I-Omburtamab injections. Dosimetry was based on serial CSF, blood samplings and region of interest (ROI) on nuclear scans. Brain and spine MRIs and CSF cytology were done at baseline, 5 weeks after 131I-Omburtamab, and approximately every 3 months thereafter. Acute toxicities and survival were noted. RESULTS: Patients received surgery, focal radiation, and high dose chemotherapy. Patients 1 and 2 received 131I-Omburtamab (80 and 53 mCi, respectively). Patient 3 had a local recurrence prior to 131I-Omburtamab treated with surgery, external beam radiation, chemotherapy, then 131I-Omburtamab (36 mCi). 131I-Omburtamab was well-tolerated. Mean dose delivered by 131I-Omburtamab was 68.4 cGy/mCi to CSF and 1.95 cGy/mCi to blood. Mean ROI doses were 230.4 (ventricular) and 58.2 (spinal) cGy/mCi. Patients 1 and 2 remain in remission 6.8 years and 2.3 years after diagnosis, respectively; patient 3 died of progressive disease 7 months after therapy (2 years after diagnosis). CONCLUSIONS: 131I-Omburtamab appears safe with favorable dosimetry therapeutic index. When used as consolidation following surgery and chemoradiation therapy, 131I-Omburtamab may have therapeutic benefit for patients with ETMR.

BACKGROUND: The current study aims to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, feasibility, and reproducibility of immunoPET imaging with copper-64 (64Cu) trastuzumab. METHODS: An IV injection of 296-370 MBq/5 mg 64Cu-trastuzumab was administered between 1 to 4 hours after routine trastuzumab treatment. Whole-body PET scans were performed immediately post-injection and at 24 hours post-injection. Serial pharmacokinetics were performed. Of 11 patients (median age of 52; range of 31-61), 8 underwent a repeat study with 64Cu-trastuzumab to assess image and pharmacokinetic reproducibility. Patients were monitored for toxicity. RESULTS: Patients experienced no allergic reactions or significant adverse effects from 64Cu-trastuzumab. Eight patients successfully completed a repeat 64Cu-trastuzumab study, with acceptable reproducibility of both the biodistribution and pharmacokinetic clearance. Study 1 versus study 2 showed similar serum concentration post-injection (mean 42.4±7.8 %ID/L vs. 44.7±12.6 %ID/L) and similar T1/2 (single exponential 46.1 vs. 44.2 hours), P>0.5. The volume of distribution (median 2.50 L) was in the range reported for trastuzumab and close to the estimated plasma volume of 2.60 L. Of 11 patients, two had 64Cu-trastuzumab localization corresponding to known tumor sites - one in liver and one in breast. CONCLUSIONS: Preliminary results suggest that scanning with 64Cu-trastuzumab is feasible, safe, and reproducible. Tumor uptake of 64Cu-trastuzumab was observed, but tumor detection exhibited low sensitivity in this study in which imaging was performed in the presence of trastuzumab therapy.

BACKGROUND: High-risk and recurrent medulloblastoma (MB) is associated with significant mortality. The murine monoclonal antibody 3F8 targets the cell-surface disialoganglioside GD2 on MB. We tested the efficacy, toxicity, and dosimetry of compartmental radioimmunotherapy (cRIT) with intraventricular 131 I-labeled 3F8 in patients with MB on a phase II clinical trial. METHODS: Patients with histopathologically confirmed high-risk or recurrent MB were eligible for cRIT. After determining adequate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow, patients received 2 mCi (where Ci is Curie) 124 I-3F8 or 131 I-3F8 with nuclear imaging for dosimetry, followed by up to four therapeutic (10 mCi/dose) 131 I-3F8 injections. Dosimetry estimates were based on serial CSF and blood samplings over 48 hr plus region-of-interest analyses on serial imaging scans. Disease evaluation included pre- and posttherapy brain/spine magnetic resonance imaging approximately every 3 months for the first year after treatment, and every 6-12 months thereafter. RESULTS: Forty-three patients received a total of 167 injections; 42 patients were evaluable for outcome. No treatment-related deaths occurred. Toxicities related to drug administration included acute bradycardia with somnolence, headache, fatigue, and CSF pleocytosis consistent with chemical meningitis and dystonic reaction. Total CSF absorbed dose was 1,453 cGy (where Gy is Gray; 350.0-2,784). Median overall survival from first dose of cRIT was 24.9 months (95% confidence interval [CI]:16.3-55.8). Patients treated in radiographic and cytologic remission were at a lower risk of death compared to patients with radiographically measurable disease (hazard ratio: 0.40, 95% CI: 0.18-0.88, P = 0.024). CONCLUSIONS: cRIT with 131 I-3F8 is safe, has favorable dosimetry to CSF, and when added to salvage therapy using conventional modalities, may have clinical utility in maintaining remission in high-risk or recurrent MB.

PURPOSE: There is growing recognition that biologic features of the tumor microenvironment affect the response to cancer therapies and the outcome of cancer patients. In head and neck cancer (HNC) one such feature is hypoxia. We investigated the utility of 18F-fluoromisonidazole (FMISO) dynamic positron emission tomography (dPET) for monitoring the early microenvironmental response to chemoradiotherapy in HNC. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Seventy-two HNC patients underwent FMISO dPET scans in a customized immobilization mask (0-30 min dynamic acquisition, followed by 10 min static acquisitions starting at â¼95 min and â¼160 min post-injection) at baseline and early into treatment where patients have already received one cycle of chemotherapy and anywhere from five to ten fractions of 2 Gy per fraction radiation therapy. Voxelwise pharmacokinetic modeling was conducted using an irreversible one-plasma two-tissue compartment model to calculate surrogate biomarkers of tumor hypoxia (k 3 and Tumor-to-Blood Ratio (TBR)), perfusion (K 1 ) and FMISO distribution volume (DV). Additionally, Tumor-to-Muscle Ratios (TMR) were derived by visual inspection by an experienced nuclear medicine physician, with TMR > 1.2 defining hypoxia. RESULTS: One hundred and thirty-five lesions in total were analyzed. TBR, k 3 and DV decreased on early response scans, while no significant change was observed for K 1 . The k 3 -TBR correlation decreased substantially from baseline scans (Pearson's r = 0.72 and 0.76 for mean intratumor and pooled voxelwise values, respectively) to early response scans (Pearson's r = 0.39 and 0.40, respectively). Both concordant and discordant examples of changes in intratumor k 3 and TBR were identified; the latter partially mediated by the change in DV. In 13 normoxic patients according to visual analysis (all having lesions with TMR = 1.2), subvolumes were identified where k 3 indicated the presence of hypoxia. CONCLUSION: Pharmacokinetic modeling of FMISO dynamic PET reveals a more detailed characterization of the tumor microenvironment and assessment of response to chemoradiotherapy in HNC patients than a single static image does. In a clinical trial where absence of hypoxia in primary tumor and lymph nodes would lead to de-escalation of therapy, the observed disagreement between visual analysis and pharmacokinetic modeling results would have affected patient management in <20% cases. While simple static PET imaging is easily implemented for clinical trials, the clinical applicability of pharmacokinetic modeling remains to be investigated.

PURPOSE: The molecular specificity of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) directed against tumor antigens has proven effective for targeted therapy of human cancers, as shown by a growing list of successful antibody-based drug products. We describe a novel, nonlinear compartmental model using PET-derived data to determine the "best-fit" parameters and model-derived quantities for optimizing biodistribution of intravenously injected (124)I-labeled antitumor antibodies. METHODS: As an example of this paradigm, quantitative image and kinetic analyses of anti-A33 humanized mAb (also known as "A33") were performed in 11 colorectal cancer patients. Serial whole-body PET scans of (124)I-labeled A33 and blood samples were acquired and the resulting tissue time-activity data for each patient were fit to a nonlinear compartmental model using the SAAM II computer code. RESULTS: Excellent agreement was observed between fitted and measured parameters of tumor uptake, "off-target" uptake in bowel mucosa, blood clearance, tumor antigen levels, and percent antigen occupancy. CONCLUSION: This approach should be generally applicable to antibody-antigen systems in human tumors for which the masses of antigen-expressing tumor and of normal tissues can be estimated and for which antibody kinetics can be measured with PET. Ultimately, based on each patient's resulting "best-fit" nonlinear model, a patient-specific optimum mAb dose (in micromoles, for example) may be derived.

Radionecrosis is a potentially devastating complication of external beam radiotherapy (XRT). Intraventricular compartmental radioimmunotherapy (cRIT) using (131)I-3F8 or (131)I-8H9 can eradicate malignant cells in the CSF. The incidence of radionecrosis using cRIT (131)I based intraventricular radioimmunotherapy, when used alone or in combination with conventional craniospinal CSI-XRT is unknown. We retrospectively analyzed the incidence of radionecrosis in two cohorts of pediatric patients treated with both CSI-XRT and cRIT at MSKCC since 2003: patients with metastatic CNS neuroblastoma (NB) and medulloblastoma (MB). 94 patients received both CSI-XRT and cRIT, two received cRIT alone, median follow up 41.5 months (6.5-124.8 months). Mean CSI-XRT dose was 28 Gy (boost to the primary tumor site up to 54 Gy) in the MB cohort, and CSI XRT dose 18-21 Gy (boost to 30 Gy for focal parenchymal mass) in the NB cohort. For MB patients, 20 % had focal re-irradiation for a second or more subsequent relapse, mean repeat-XRT dose was 27.5 Gy; seven patients with NB had additional focal XRT. Median CSF cRIT dose was 18.6 Gy in the MB cohort and 32.1 in the NB cohort. One asymptomatic patient underwent resection of 0.6-cm hemorrhagic periventricular white-matter lesion confirmed to be necrosis and granulation tissue, 2.5 years after XRT. The risk of radionecrosis in children treated with XRT and cRIT appears minimal (~1 %). No neurologic deficits secondary to radionecrosis have been observed in long-term survivors treated with both modalities, including patients who underwent re-XRT. Administration of cRIT may safely proceed in patients treated with conventional radiotherapy without appearing to increase the risk of radionecrosis.

PURPOSE: Standard curative-intent chemoradiotherapy for human papillomavirus (HPV)-related oropharyngeal carcinoma results in significant toxicity. Since hypoxic tumors are radioresistant, we posited that the aerobic state of a tumor could identify patients eligible for de-escalation of chemoradiotherapy while maintaining treatment efficacy. METHODS: We enrolled patients with HPV-related oropharyngeal carcinoma to receive de-escalated definitive chemoradiotherapy in a phase II study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03323463). Patients first underwent surgical removal of disease at their primary site, but not of gross disease in the neck. A baseline 18F-fluoromisonidazole positron emission tomography scan was used to measure tumor hypoxia and was repeated 1-2 weeks intratreatment. Patients with nonhypoxic tumors received 30 Gy (3 weeks) with chemotherapy, whereas those with hypoxic tumors received standard chemoradiotherapy to 70 Gy (7 weeks). The primary objective was achieving a 2-year locoregional control (LRC) of 95% with a 7% noninferiority margin. RESULTS: One hundred fifty-eight patients with T0-2/N1-N2c were enrolled, of which 152 patients were eligible for analyses. Of these, 128 patients met criteria for 30 Gy and 24 patients received 70 Gy. The 2-year LRC was 94.7% (95% CI, 89.8 to 97.7), meeting our primary objective. With a median follow-up time of 38.3 (range, 22.1-58.4) months, the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 94% and 100%, respectively, for the 30-Gy cohort. The 70-Gy cohort had similar 2-year PFS and OS rates at 96% and 96%, respectively. Acute grade 3-4 adverse events were more common in 70 Gy versus 30 Gy (58.3% v 32%; P = .02). Late grade 3-4 adverse events only occurred in the 70-Gy cohort, in which 4.5% complained of late dysphagia. CONCLUSION: Tumor hypoxia is a promising approach to direct dosing of curative-intent chemoradiotherapy for HPV-related carcinomas with preserved efficacy and substantially reduced toxicity that requires further investigation.

PURPOSE: ²²³Ra-Dichloride (²²³Ra) is a novel bone-seeking alpha-emitter that prolongs survival in patients with castration-resistant metastatic prostate cancer. We conducted a study to better profile the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and biodistribution of this agent. METHODS: Ten patients received either 50, 100, or 200 kBq of ²²³Ra per kilogram of body weight. Subsequently, six of these ten patients received a second dose of 50 kBq/kg. Pharmacokinetics and biodistribution were assessed by serial blood sampling, planar imaging, and whole-body counting. Pharmacodynamic assessment was based on measurements of prostate-specific antigen, bone alkaline phosphatase, and serum N-telopeptide. Safety was also assessed. RESULTS: Pharmacokinetic studies showed rapid clearance of ²²³Ra from the vasculature, with a median of 14% (range 9-34%), 2% (range 1.6-3.9%), and 0.5% (range 0.4-1.0%) remaining in plasma at the end of infusion, after 4 h, and after 24 h, respectively. Biodistribution studies showed early passage into the small bowel and subsequent fecal excretion with a median of 52% of administered ²²³Ra in the bowel at 24 h. Urinary excretion was relatively minor (median of 4% of administered ²²³Ra). Bone retention was prolonged. No dose-limiting toxicity was observed. Pharmacodynamic effects were observed (alkaline phosphatase and serum N-telopeptides) in a significant fraction of patients. CONCLUSION: ²²³Ra cleared rapidly from plasma and rapidly transited into small bowel, with fecal excretion the major route of elimination. Administered activities up to 200 kBq/kg were associated with few side effects and appeared to induce a decline in serum indicators of bone turnover.

Radiolabeled antibody treatment with 131I-omburtamab, administered intraventricularly into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) space, can deliver therapeutic absorbed doses to sites of leptomeningeal disease. Assessment of distribution and radiation dosimetry is a key element in optimizing such treatments. Using a theranostic approach, we performed pretreatment 131I-omburtamab imaging and dosimetric analysis in patients before therapy. Methods: Whole-body planar images were acquired 3 ± 1, 23 ± 2, and 47 ± 2 h after intracranioventricular administration of 75 ± 5 MBq of 131I-omburtamab via an Ommaya reservoir. Multiple blood samples were also obtained for kinetic analysis. Separate regions of interest (ROIs) were manually drawn to include the lateral ventricles, entire spinal canal CSF space, and over the whole body. Count data in the ROIs were corrected for background and physical decay, converted to activity, and subsequently fitted to an exponential clearance function. The radiation absorbed dose was estimated to the CSF, separately to the spinal column and ventricles, and to the whole body and blood. Biodistribution of the injected radiolabeled antibody was assessed for all patients. Results: Ninety-five patients were included in the analysis. Biodistribution showed prompt localization in the ventricles and spinal CSF space with low systemic distribution, noted primarily as hepatic, renal, and bladder activity after the first day. Using ROI analysis, the effective half-lives were 13 ± 11 h (range, 5-75 h) for CSF in the spinal column, 8 ± 3 h (range, 3-17 h) for ventricles, and 41 ± 11 (range, 23-81 h) for the whole body. Mean absorbed doses were 0.63 ± 0.38 cGy/MBq (range, 0.24-2.25 cGy/MBq) for CSF in the spinal column, 1.03 ± 0.69 cGy/MBq (range, 0.27-5.15 cGy/MBq) for the ventricular CSF, and 0.45 ± 0.32 mGy/MBq (range, 0.05-1.43 mGy/MBq) for the whole body. Conclusion: Pretherapeutic imaging with 131I-omburtamab allows assessment of biodistribution and dosimetry before the administration of therapeutic activity. Absorbed doses to the CSF compartments and whole body derived from the widely applicable serial 131I-omburtamab planar images had acceptable agreement with previously reported data determined from serial 124I-omburtamab PET scans.

A single-institution prospective pilot clinical trial was performed to demonstrate the feasibility of combining [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for the treatment of oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer. Methods: Six patients with 9 prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive oligometastases received 2 cycles of [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 RPT followed by SBRT. After the first intravenous infusion of [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 (7.46 ± 0.15 GBq), patients underwent SPECT/CT at 3.2 ± 0.5, 23.9 ± 0.4, and 87.4 ± 12.0 h. Voxel-based dosimetry was performed with calibration factors (11.7 counts per second/MBq) and recovery coefficients derived from in-house phantom experiments. Lesions were segmented on baseline PSMA PET/CT (50% SUVmax). After a second cycle of [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 (44 ± 3 d; 7.50 ± 0.10 GBq) and an interim PSMA PET/CT scan, SBRT (27 Gy in 3 fractions) was delivered to all PSMA-avid oligometastatic sites, followed by post-PSMA PET/CT. RPT and SBRT voxelwise dose maps were scaled (α/ß = 3 Gy; repair half-time, 1.5 h) to calculate the biologically effective dose (BED). Results: All patients completed the combination therapy without complications. No grade 3+ toxicities were noted. The median of the lesion SUVmax as measured on PSMA PET was 16.8 (interquartile range [IQR], 11.6) (baseline), 6.2 (IQR, 2.7) (interim), and 2.9 (IQR, 1.4) (post). PET-derived lesion volumes were 0.4-1.7 cm3 The median lesion-absorbed dose (AD) from the first cycle of [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 RPT (ADRPT) was 27.7 Gy (range, 8.3-58.2 Gy; corresponding to 3.7 Gy/GBq, range, 1.1-7.7 Gy/GBq), whereas the median lesion AD from SBRT was 28.1 Gy (range, 26.7-28.8 Gy). Spearman rank correlation, ρ, was 0.90 between the baseline lesion PET SUVmax and SPECT SUVmax (P = 0.005), 0.74 (P = 0.046) between the baseline PET SUVmax and the lesion ADRPT, and -0.81 (P = 0.022) between the lesion ADRPT and the percent change in PET SUVmax (baseline to interim). The median for the lesion BED from RPT and SBRT was 159 Gy (range, 124-219 Gy). ρ between the BED from RPT and SBRT and the percent change in PET SUVmax (baseline to post) was -0.88 (P = 0.007). Two cycles of [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 RPT contributed approximately 40% to the maximum BED from RPT and SBRT. Conclusion: Lesional dosimetry in patients with oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer undergoing [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 RPT followed by SBRT is feasible. Combined RPT and SBRT may provide an efficient method to maximize the delivery of meaningful doses to oligometastatic disease while addressing potential microscopic disease reservoirs and limiting the dose exposure to normal tissues.
