Low-dose targeted radionuclide therapy synergizes with CAR T cells and enhances tumor response. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
In contrast to the more commonly used external beam radiation, we explored the feasibility of combining chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy with targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT), which is achieved by delivering β-emitting 177Lu-DOTATATE to tumor via tumor-infiltrating CAR T cells that express somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2)...However, this higher dose led to cell death in both the tumor and CAR T cells. Our study suggests that there may exist an optimum range of TRT dosage that can enhance T cell activity and sensitize tumor cells to T cell killing, which may result in more durable tumor control compared to a higher radiation dose.

Impact of different models based on blood samples and images for bone marrow dosimetry after 177Lu-labeled somatostatin-receptor therapy. (PubMed, EJNMMI Phys)
This study confirms that the estimated bone marrow dose is significantly lower with the blood-based method than with the image-based method. The blood-based method with a bi-exponential model proved particularly useful, without the need for blood samples after 24h post-injection. Nevertheless, this blood-based method is based on an assumption that needs to be more validated. The important difference between the two methods does not allow to determine the optimal one to estimate the true absorbed dose and further studies are necessary to compare with biological effects.

Advances in Radioligand Theranostics in Oncology. (PubMed, Mol Diagn Ther)
In this work, we present an updated appraisal of the literature, reviewing the recent advances in the use of established radiotheranostic agents such as radioiodine for differentiated thyroid carcinoma and Iodine-131-labeled meta-iodobenzylguanidine therapy of tumors of the sympathoadrenal axis as well as the recently approved 177Lu-DOTATATE and 177Lu-PSMA for differentiated neuroendocrine tumors and advanced prostate cancer, respectively. We also discuss the radiotheranostic agents that have been comprehensively characterized in preclinical studies and have shown some clinical evidence supporting their safety and efficacy, especially those targeting fibroblast activation protein (FAP) and chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) and those still being investigated in preclinical studies such as those targeting poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and epidermal growth factor receptor 2.

Randomized Phase II Study Evaluating the Addition of Pembrolizumab to Radium-223 in Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer. (PubMed, Cancer Immunol Res)
Clinical responders possessed lower circulating frequencies of Ki67+ T and myeloid cells at baseline and higher circulating frequencies of TIM-3+ T and myeloid cells by week 9. Although R223+P did not induce T-cell infiltration into the tumor microenvironment, exhaustion of induced peripheral T-cell immune responses may dampen the combination's clinical activity.

Amide-to-Triazole Switch in Somatostatin-14-Based Radioligands: Impact on Receptor Affinity and In Vivo Stability. (PubMed, Pharmaceutics)
The use of metabolically stabilized, radiolabeled somatostatin (SST) analogs ([68Ga]Ga/[177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE/TOC/NOC) is well established in nuclear medicine...The involvement of neprilysin (NEP) in the metabolism of [111In]In-XG1 was confirmed by coadministration of Entresto®, a registered antihypertensive drug, in vivo releasing the selective and potent NEP-inhibitor sacubitrilat...To corroborate the imaging data, the tumors and the kidneys were excised and analyzed with a γ-counter. Even if receptor-specific tumor uptake for [111In]In-XG1 could be confirmed (1.61% IA/g), further optimization is required to improve its pharmacokinetic properties for radiotracer development.

A Comparison of 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT-Based Split Renal Function with 99mTc-MAG3 Renography in Patients with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Carcinoma Treated with 177Lu-PSMA. (PubMed, Diagnostics (Basel))
PSMA-derived split function demonstrated a high correlation with renal function assessed on diuretic 99mTc-MAG3 renograms. PET-derived split renal function may, therefore, be considered an alternative to diuretic renogram-based split function. Furthermore, both 99mTc-MAG3 and 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT studies identified morphological renal abnormalities such as hydronephrosis, shrunken and obstructed kidneys. This correlation underscores the potential utility of 68Ga-PSMA imaging as a valuable tool for assessing kidney morphology as an alternative to renogram split function in clinical practice.

177Lu-DOTATATE Salvage Therapy in Rapidly Progressing Neuroendocrine Tumor With Poor Performance Status. (PubMed, Clin Nucl Med)
This denies many patients with adequate somatostatin receptor expression and biochemical profiles from the beneficial effects of PRRT on the quality of life, daily function, and overall survival. The 2 cases highlight the favorable response of PRRT in patients with metastatic neuroendocrine tumor having a very poor performance status initially.

Efficacy of [67Cu]Cu-EB-TATE Theranostic Against Somatostatin Receptor Subtype-2-Positive Neuroendocrine Tumors. (PubMed, J Nucl Med)
The antitumor efficacy of [67Cu]Cu-EB-TATE is comparable to that of [177Lu]Lu-EB-TATE, with [67Cu]Cu-EB-TATE being slightly more effective than [177Lu]Lu-EB-TATE for complete remission of small tumors. [67Cu]Cu-EB-TATE therefore warrants clinical development.

Lymphocyte Function at Baseline Could Be a New Predictor of Tumor Burden following Six Cycles of Radium-223 Therapy in Patients with Metastasized, Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
As determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, tetanus-specific IL-10 spots at baseline had the highest predictive value (p = 0.005) for tumor burden at month 6, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.90 (sensitivity 100%, specificity 78%). In conclusion, we observed an additive effect of treatment with 223Ra on immune function and found that IL-10 secretion at baseline predicted tumor burden at month 6 after treatment.
