Abstract
PURPOSE For various reasons, pregnant women are occasionally exposed to ionizing radiation during radiology examinations. In these situations, it is essential to determine the radiation dose to the fetus and any associated risks. The present study attempts to calculate the mean dose for the fetus to estimate the possible cancer induction and cancer mortality risks resulting from maternal radiography exams. MATERIAL AND METHODS The GATE Monte Carlo platform and a standard voxelized pregnant phantom were employed to calculate fetal radiation dose during maternal radiography exams. The data published in Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation VII were used to convert fetal dose to lifetime attributable risks (LARs) of cancer incidence and cancer-related mortality. RESULTS The fetal doses and LARs of cancer incidence and cancer-related mortality for the radiographs of the chest and skull were negligible. The maximum LAR values for the lateral view of the abdomen in computed and digital radiography are 5598.29 and 2238.95 per 100,000 individuals, respectively. The computed radiography of the lateral view of the abdomen revealed the highest LAR of cancer-related mortality (2074.30 deaths for every 100,000 people). CONCLUSION The radiation dose incurred by the fetus due to chest and skull radiographs was minimal and unlikely to cause any abnormalities in the fetus. The discernible elevation in the lifetime attributable risk associated with cancer incidence and mortality arising from lateral computed radiography examinations of the abdomen warrants careful consideration within the realm of maternal radiography examinations.

[PMID: 37525027 PMCID: PMC10390455 DOI: 10.1186/s40658-023-00564-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) with alpha-emitting radionuclides has shown great promise in treating metastatic cancers. The successive emission of four alpha particles in the 225Ac decay chain leads to highly targeted and effective cancer cell death. Quantifying cellular dosimetry for 225Ac RPT is essential for predicting cell survival and therapeutic success. However, the leading assumption that all 225Ac progeny remain localized at their target sites likely overestimates the absorbed dose to cancer cells. To address limitations in existing semi-analytic approaches, this work evaluates S-values for 225Ac's progeny radionuclides with GATE Monte Carlo simulations. METHODS The cellular geometries considered were an individual cell (10 µm diameter with a nucleus of 8 µm diameter) and a cluster of cells (micrometastasis) with radionuclides localized in four subcellular regions: cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, or whole cell. The absorbed dose to the cell nucleus was scored, and self- and cross-dose S-values were derived. We also evaluated the total absorbed dose with various degrees of radiopharmaceutical internalization and retention of the progeny radionuclides 221Fr (t1/2 = 4.80 m) and 213Bi (t1/2 = 45.6 m). RESULTS For the cumulative 225Ac decay chain, our self- and cross-dose nuclear S-values were both in good agreement with S-values published by MIRDcell, with per cent differences ranging from - 2.7 to - 8.7% for the various radionuclide source locations. Source location had greater effects on self-dose S-values than the intercellular cross-dose S-values. Cumulative 225Ac decay chain self-dose S-values increased from 0.167 to 0.364 GyBq-1 s-1 with radionuclide internalization from the cell surface into the cell. When progeny migration from the target site was modelled, the cumulative self-dose S-values to the cell nucleus decreased by up to 71% and 21% for 221Fr and 213Bi retention, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our GATE Monte Carlo simulations resulted in cellular S-values in agreement with existing MIRD S-values for the alpha-emitting radionuclides in the 225Ac decay chain. To obtain accurate absorbed dose estimates in 225Ac studies, accurate understanding of daughter migration is critical for optimized injected activities. Future work will investigate other novel preclinical alpha-emitting radionuclides to evaluate therapeutic potency and explore realistic cellular geometries corresponding to targeted cancer cell lines.

Biodistribution and internal radiation dosimetry of a companion diagnostic radiopharmaceutical, [ 68Ga]PSMA-11, in subcutaneous prostate cancer xenograft model mice. Sci Rep 2021; 11:15263. [PMID: 34315965 PMCID: PMC8316415 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-94684-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2021] [Accepted: 07/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
[68Ga]PSMA-11 is a prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeting radiopharmaceutical for diagnostic PET imaging. Its application can be extended to targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT). In this study, we characterize the biodistribution and pharmacokinetics of [68Ga]PSMA-11 in PSMA-positive and negative (22Rv1 and PC3, respectively) tumor-bearing mice and subsequently estimated its internal radiation dosimetry via voxel-level dosimetry using a dedicated Monte Carlo simulation to evaluate the absorbed dose in the tumor directly. Consequently, this approach overcomes the drawbacks of the conventional organ-level (or phantom-based) method. The kidneys and urinary bladder both showed substantial accumulation of [68Ga]PSMA-11 without exhibiting a washout phase during the study. For the tumor, a peak concentration of 4.5 ± 0.7 %ID/g occurred 90 min after [68Ga]PSMA-11 injection. The voxel- and organ-level methods both determined that the highest absorbed dose occurred in the kidneys (0.209 ± 0.005 Gy/MBq and 0.492 ± 0.059 Gy/MBq, respectively). Using voxel-level dosimetry, the absorbed dose in the tumor was estimated as 0.024 ± 0.003 Gy/MBq. The biodistribution and pharmacokinetics of [68Ga]PSMA-11 in various organs of subcutaneous prostate cancer xenograft model mice were consistent with reported data for prostate cancer patients. Therefore, our data supports the use of voxel-level dosimetry in TRT to deliver personalized dosimetry considering patient-specific heterogeneous tissue compositions and activity distributions.

Efficacy of Targeted Radionuclide Therapy Using [ 131I]ICF01012 in 3D Pigmented BRAF- and NRAS-Mutant Melanoma Models and In Vivo NRAS-Mutant Melanoma. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13061421. [PMID: 33804655 PMCID: PMC8003594 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13061421] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2020] [Revised: 03/12/2021] [Accepted: 03/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT) aims to selectively deliver radioactive molecules to tumor cells. For this purpose, we deliver iodine-131 ([131I]) to melanoma cells by using our laboratory-developed melanin specific radiotracer, the ICF01012. Approximately 50% and 20%–30% of human melanomas have activating mutation in BRAF or NRAS genes, respectively. These mutations lead to a constitutive activation of the MAPK/ERK pathway, which is known to be involved in tumor cells’ radioresistance. In this work, we showed using 3D in vitro tumor models, an additive efficiency of combining [131I]ICF01012-TRT and MAPK/ERK inhibitors in BRAF- and NRAS-mutant melanoma cells. In mice bearing NRASQ61K-mutated melanoma, TRT induced an impressive decrease in tumor growth, as well as a highly extended survival. Additionally, we showed that TRT reduces the metastatic capacity of melanoma, especially through lymph-node dissemination. These results are therefore of great interest, especially for patients with NRAS-mutant metastatic melanoma who currently lack specific efficient therapies. Abstract Purpose: To assess the efficiency of targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT), alone or in combination with MEK inhibitors (MEKi), in melanomas harboring constitutive MAPK/ERK activation responsible for tumor radioresistance. Methods: For TRT, we used a melanin radiotracer ([131I]ICF01012) currently in phase 1 clinical trial (NCT03784625). TRT alone or combined with MEKi was evaluated in three-dimensional melanoma spheroid models of human BRAFV600E SK-MEL-3, murine NRASQ61K 1007, and WT B16F10 melanomas. TRT in vivo biodistribution, dosimetry, efficiency, and molecular mechanisms were studied using the C57BL/6J-NRASQ61K 1007 syngeneic model. Results: TRT cooperated with MEKi to increase apoptosis in both BRAF- and NRAS-mutant spheroids. NRASQ61K spheroids were highly radiosensitive towards [131I]ICF01012-TRT. In mice bearing NRASQ61K 1007 melanoma, [131I]ICF01012 induced a significant extended survival (92 vs. 44 days, p < 0.0001), associated with a 93-Gy tumor deposit, and reduced lymph-node metastases. Comparative transcriptomic analyses confirmed a decrease in mitosis, proliferation, and metastasis signatures in TRT-treated vs. control tumors and suggest that TRT acts through an increase in oxidation and inflammation and P53 activation. Conclusion: Our data suggest that [131I]ICF01012-TRT and MEKi combination could be of benefit for advanced pigmented BRAF-mutant melanoma care and that [131I]ICF01012 alone could constitute a new potential NRAS-mutant melanoma treatment.

Abstract
Cutaneous melanoma arises from proliferating melanocytes, cells specialized in the production of melanin. This property means melanin can be considered as a target for monitoring melanoma patients using nuclear imaging or targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT). Since the 1970s, many researchers have shown that specific molecules can interfere with melanin. This paper reviews some such molecules: benzamide structures improved to increase their pharmacokinetics for imaging or TRT. We first describe the characteristics and biosynthesis of melanin, and the main features of melanin tracers. The second part summarizes the preclinical and corresponding clinical studies on imaging. The last section presents TRT results from ongoing protocols and discusses combinations with other therapies as an opportunity for melanoma non-responders or patients resistant to treatments.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to perform dosimetry for [99m Tc]NTP15-5 radiotracer used in imaging of articular cartilage in rabbits and humans. The radiotracer (covered by a world patent WO 01/00621 A1) has been proposed in the previous years for the study of cartilage in osteoarthritis diseases. A sensitive imaging approach is essential to quantify osteoarthritis progression and monitor response to new therapies. [99m Tc]NTP15-5 binds to cartilage proteoglycans whose decreased content is associated to a loss of biomedical function of cartilage. We have implemented the whole dosimetry study concerning this new radiotracer for rabbits and humans using the GATE Monte Carlo platform. MATERIALS AND METHODS Absorbed doses to critical organs are determined using the MIRD formalism. Biodistribution data are obtained by organ sampling, measuring the activity in organs for three rabbits sacrificed at various times postadministration, and by SPECT/CT imaging at different times after injection. Most important sources are cartilages (in knees and intervertebral discs), due to localization together with the liver and kidneys due to excretion of the agent. S-values are calculated from rabbit's CT scan and human CT scan using the GATE v8.0 Monte Carlo platform. Cumulated activity in humans is extrapolated from animals using the %kg-dose/g method. Particular attention is given to dose calculation in bones, bone marrow and organs at risk. RESULTS The dosimetry performed in rabbits shows highest absorbed doses for liver and kidneys with respectively 22.5 and 43.8 µGy per MBq of injected activity. In humans, we found absorbed doses for a maximum injected activity of 15 MBq/kg, that is, 1050 MBq for an adult of 70 kgs of 9.03 mGy for kidneys and 4.16 mGy for knee cartilages. Effective dose is 2.69 µSv/MBq. CONCLUSIONS The dosimetry profile of [99m Tc]NTP15-5 in the context of preclinical trials is of major importance in order to make sure that organs at risk are not overexposed. GATE provides all the capability needed to calculate dose profiles for internal dosimetry. The extrapolation of the dose for a human model is a first step towards clinical trials.

Abstract
Exploring the spatial distribution of the energy loss of ionising radiation at the subcellular level is indispensable for evaluating the radiobiological effects of targeted radionuclide therapy accurately. Believing that S-values are important for obtaining the target dose, the Committee on Medical Internal Radiation Dose (MIRD) proposed a method to obtain the cellular dosimetric parameter. However, most available data on cellular S-values were calculated based on simple geometric models, such as ellipsoids or spheres, which do not accurately reflect biological reality. To investigate the influence of the cellular model on S-values, calculations were performed for two kinds of polygon-surface phantom models of realistic, individual human cells, the lung epithelial cell model (the B2B Phantom model) and the hepatocyte model (the Liver Phantom model), using the Monte Carlo (MC) software package GATE. To analyse the influence of cell geometry on the final S-value, the differences in the S-values between the realistic cell models and simple geometric sphere and ellipsoid models with similar volumes were calculated and compared for six different combinations of source and target regions. The irradiation conditions were 0.01-1.10 MeV monoenergetic electron sources and the Auger electronic therapy nuclides Ga-67, Tc-99m, In-111, I-125 and Tl-201, which are commonly used in nuclear medicine. The S-values calculated in this study are different from the results of the simple geometry models proposed by previous researchers. Two more precise polygon-surface phantom models of realistic, individual human cells were used, which provided more accurate information about the cell dose and will be very useful for the diagnostic application of radiotherapy in the future.

Abstract
Due to the increasing use of preclinical targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT) studies for the development of novel theranostic agents, several studies have been performed to accurately estimate absorbed doses to mice at the voxel level using reference mouse phantoms and Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. Accurate dosimetry is important in preclinical theranostics to interpret radiobiological dose-response relationships and to translate results for clinical use. Direct MC (DMC) simulation is believed to produce more realistic voxel-level dose distribution with high precision because tissue heterogeneities and nonuniform source distributions in patients or animals are considered. Although MC simulation is considered to be an accurate method for voxel-based absorbed dose calculations, it is time-consuming, computationally demanding, and often impractical in daily practice. In this review, we focus on the current status of voxel-based dosimetry methods applied in preclinical theranostics and discuss the need for accurate and fast voxel-based dosimetry methods for pretherapy absorbed dose calculations to optimize the dose computation time in preclinical TRT.

Abstract
Internal dosimetry is of critical importance to obtain an accurate absorbed dose-response relationship during preclinical molecular imaging and targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT). Conventionally, absorbed dose calculations have been performed using organ-level dosimetry based on the Medical Internal Radiation Dose (MIRD) schema. However, recent research has focused on developing more accurate voxel-level calculation methods. Geant4 application for emission tomography (GATE) Monte Carlo (MC) is a simulation toolkit gaining attention in voxel-based dosimetry. In this study, we used PET/CT images of real mice to estimate the absorbed doses in sensitive organs at voxel-level to evaluate the suitability of GATE MC simulation for preclinical dosimetry. Thirteen normal C57BL/6 mice (male, body weight: 27.71 ± 4.25 g) were used to acquire dynamic positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) images after IV injection of 18F-FDG. GATE MC toolkit was applied to estimate the absorbed doses in various organs of mice at voxel-level using CT and PET images as voxelized phantom and voxelized source, respectively. In addition, mean absorbed dose at organ-level was calculated using MIRD schema for comparison purposes. The differences in the respective absorbed doses (mGy MBq-1) between GATE MC and MIRD schema for brain, heart wall, liver, lungs, stomach wall, spleen, kidneys, and bladder wall were 1.36, 12.3, -22.4, -11.2, -16.9, -2.87, -4.29, and 3.71%, respectively. Considering that the PET/CT data of real mice were used for GATE simulation, the absorbed doses estimated in this study are mouse-specific. Therefore, the GATE-based Monte Carlo is likely to allow for more accurate internal dosimetry calculations. This method can be used in TRT for personalized dosimetry because it considers patient-specific heterogeneous tissue compositions and activity distributions.

Abstract
Several radiolabeled folic acid conjugates have been developed for targeted imaging and therapy. However, the therapeutic concept with radiolabeled folate conjugates has not yet been applied to clinical applications owing to the high renal absorbed dose. The effectiveness of targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT) depends primarily on the absorbed dose rate and on the total absorbed dose delivered to the tumor and to normal tissue. Owing to various limitations associated with organ level dosimetry, voxel-based dosimetry has become essential for the assessment of a more accurate absorbed dose during TRT. In this study, we synthesized iron oxide nanoparticle (IONP)-conjugated radiolabeled folate (177Lu-IONP-Folate) and performed voxel-based dosimetry using SPECT/CT images of normal mice through direct Geant4 application for emission tomography (GATE) Monte Carlo (MC) simulation. We also prepared 177Lu-Folate and 177Lu-IONPs for the comparison of absorbed doses with that of 177Lu-IONP-Folate. In addition, we calculated the mean absorbed dose at the organ-level using the medical internal radiation dose (MIRD) schema. The radioactivities of all three radiotracers were mainly accumulated in the liver and kidneys immediately after injection. For the kidneys, the voxel-based absorbed doses obtained with 177Lu-IONP-Folate, 177Lu-Folate, and 177Lu-IONPs were 1.01 ± 0.17, 2.46 ± 0.50, and 0.52 ± 0.08 Gy/MBq, respectively. The renal absorbed dose decreased significantly (∼half) when 177Lu-IONP-Folate was used compared with when the 177Lu-Folate only was used. The mean absorbed dose values obtained at organ-level using the MIRD schema were comparable to voxel-based absorbed doses estimated with GATE MC. The voxel-based absorbed dose values obtained in this study of individualized activity show that the renal absorbed dose could be reduced to almost half with 177Lu-IONP-Folate. Therefore, 177Lu-IONP-Folate could be clinically applicable in the TRT of folate receptor-positive cancers in a personalized manner when using the voxel-based dosimetry method.

Abstract
Monte Carlo (MC) simulation is widely recognized as an important technique to study the physics of particle interactions in nuclear medicine and radiation therapy. There are different codes dedicated to dosimetry applications and widely used today in research or in clinical application, such as MCNP, EGSnrc and Geant4. However, such codes made the physics easier but the programming remains a tedious task even for physicists familiar with computer programming. In this paper we report the development of a new interface GEANT4 Dose And Radiation Interactions (G4DARI) based on GEANT4 for absorbed dose calculation and for particle tracking in humans, small animals and complex phantoms. The calculation of the absorbed dose is performed based on 3D CT human or animal images in DICOM format, from images of phantoms or from solid volumes which can be made from any pure or composite material to be specified by its molecular formula. G4DARI offers menus to the user and tabs to be filled with values or chemical formulas. The interface is described and as application, we show results obtained in a lung tumor in a digital mouse irradiated with seven energy beams, and in a patient with glioblastoma irradiated with five photon beams. In conclusion, G4DARI can be easily used by any researcher without the need to be familiar with computer programming, and it will be freely available as an application package.

Abstract
PURPOSE: This work reports, in melanoma models, the theranostic potential of ICF15002 as a single fluorinated and iodinated melanin-targeting compound. METHODS: Studies were conducted in the murine syngeneic B16BL6 model and in the A375 and SK-MEL-3 human xenografts. ICF15002 was radiolabeled with fluorine-18 for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and biodistribution, with iodine-125 for metabolism study, and iodine-131 for targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT). TRT efficacy was assessed by tumor volume measurement, with mechanistics and dosimetry parameters being determined in the B16BL6 model. Intracellular localization of ICF15002 was characterized by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). RESULTS: PET imaging with [18F]ICF15002 evidenced tumoral uptake of 14.33 ± 2.11%ID/g and 4.87 ± 0.93%ID/g in pigmented B16BL6 and SK-MEL-3 models, respectively, at 1 hour post inoculation. No accumulation was observed in the unpigmented A375 melanoma. SIMS demonstrated colocalization of ICF15002 signal with melanin polymers in melanosomes of the B16BL6 tumors. TRT with two doses of 20 MBq [131I]ICF15002 delivered an absorbed dose of 102.3 Gy to B16BL6 tumors, leading to a significant tumor growth inhibition [doubling time (DT) of 2.9 ± 0.5 days in treated vs 1.8 ± 0.3 in controls] and a prolonged median survival (27 days vs 21 in controls). P53S15 phosphorylation and P21 induction were associated with a G2/M blockage, suggesting mitotic catastrophe. In the human SK-MEL-3 model, three doses of 25 MBq led also to a DT increase (26.5 ± 7.8 days vs 11.0 ± 3.8 in controls) and improved median survival (111 days vs 74 in controls). CONCLUSION: Results demonstrate that ICF15002 fulfills suitable properties for bimodal imaging/TRT management of patients with pigmented melanoma.
