2 Radioimmunotherapy Localized internal radiation therapy of cancer using radiolabeled antibodies targeted to specific antigen binding sites on tumor cells

3 90 90 Y (pure β - emitter, more ideal for therapy) - Bremsstrahlung imaging possible, but non-quantifiable, so In used as a surrogate for imaging 131 imageable 172, 247 kev γ s + similar T 1/2 (67 hr vs. 90 Y 64 hr) 131 I (β( - + imageable 364 kev γ,, but also higher kev γ s) 67 Radioimmunotherapy: Radionuclides of Interest 67 Cu (β( - + imageable 184 kev γ) Miscellaneous other β - emitters (e.g., 186 Future: emitters for α therapy ( At, Re, 177 Lu) 212 Bi, 213 Bi)?

4 Radioimmunotherapy: Routes of Administration Intravenous (most common) Intratumoral Intra-arterial arterial Intraperitoneal

5 Radioimmunotherapy: Current Applications Non-Hodgkin s B-Cell B Lymphoma 90 Y-Zevalin (IDEC) FDA approved 2/02 (anti-cd20) 131 I-BEXXAR (Corixa)) FDA approval 6/03 (anti-cd20) antibodies targeted to other expressed antigens Other cancers under investigation Other Lymphomas, Leukemias Colorectal, Breast, Liver, Prostate, Renal, misc. GI Gliomas, Astrocytomas (intra-tumoral tumoral infusion)

6 Radioimmunotherapy Dosimetry: Regulatory Requirements Radiopharmaceutical Clinical Trials Primarily Safety-Related: critical organ MTD (rad( rad,cgy), and thus maximum tolerated administered activity (mci( mci,mbq) Efficacy: absorbed dose in tumors (dose-response) Approved Therapeutic Agents (package inserts): Zevalin: BEXXAR: organ radiation abs. dose estimates (mean, range)

7 Radioimmunotherapy Dosimetry: Organs of Interest Whole Body (estimate of average dose over entire body) Red Marrow - radiosensitive - dose from radioactivity in blood (esp. IV administrations) Lungs (radiosensitive) Liver, Kidneys (and secondarily, GI tract, Bladder) - antibody clearance organs Spleen Thyroid (e.g., free 131 I)

8 Medical Internal Radiation Dosimetry: Model-Based Approach Energy (E) Deposition vs. Radiation Type/Energy non-penetrating penetrating: β +/- s, e - s < 4 MeV; γ s < 10 kev Penetrating: γ s > 10 kev Anthropomorphic Computer Phantoms (10) Adult M/F; 3/6/9 mo. pregnant; newborn; 1/5/10/15 yo Standard (average) organs - modeled density, volume, shape, location - 28 Source organs, 27 Target organs Dynamic Models: GI and Urinary Tracts

9 MIRD Source-Target Radiation Dose Model np = non-penetrating radiation p = penetrating radiation Source s np + p (s s S factor = S np + S p ) (s s self Dose) p (γ s( > 10 kev) (t s S factor = S p ) (t s Dose) Target t

10 MIRD Absorbed Dose S Factor S(t s) = radiation absorbed dose in t per unit cumulated activity in s Units: rad/µci Ci-hr (traditional) mgy/bq Bq-sec (S. I.) radionuclide and source-target specific

11 MIRD Absorbed Dose S Factor S np (t s) = 1/m Σ i i φ np (t s); S p (t s) = 1/m Σ j j φ p (t s) S(t s) = S np (t s) + S p (t s) m = reference phantom target organ mass Traditional units: i = 2.13n i E i g-rad/µci-h; E i MeV S.I. units: i = n i E i kg-gy Gy/Bq-s; E i Joule n i = probability of emission i φ(t s) = energy absorbed in t energy emitted in s np: = 1 (t = s), 0 (t s) = ½ (contents wall): heart, stomach, GI tract, bladder p: < 1 (dependent on: radionuclide, phantom, source, target)

12 Cumulated Activity Total number of decays in a given region (µci-hr, Bq-sec), from a given amount of internally administered radioactivity, A inj (0): Quantitative Imaging!!! phys t dt à = A 0 bio (t) e -λphys t dt, t = time Residence Time = à A inj (0) (hr, sec) = f 0 bio (t) e -λphys t dt, f bio (t) = A bio (t) A inj (0) f(t) = fraction of injected activity

13 MIRD Radiation Absorbed Dose Total Dose: D t = Σ s à s S(t s) Units: rad, Gy FYI: Dose Rate, dd t /dt = Σ s A sbio (t) e -λphys t phys t S(t S(t s) Unit Dose: d t = Σ s Tres s S(t s) Units: rad/mci mci, mgy/mbq

14 Previous murine (mouse) or human biodistribution data Pharmacokinetic or compartmental models Both poor predictors of variable biodistribution in individual patients, so Radioimmunotherapy: Absorbed Dose Estimates

15 Radioimmunotherapy: Individualized Dose Estimates Measurement of absolute uptake vs. time of radiolabeled compound in the patient Input data (A( bio (t) e -λphys t ) to patient-specific MIRD dose estimation for: organ safety/toxicity limits tumor therapeutic efficacy treatment planning

16 Radioimmunotherapy: Dose Estimate Mass Correction Stabin MG, SNM 1998 D t = D np + D p = Σ s à s S np (t s) + Σ s à s S p (t s) = à s /m ref Σ i i φ np (t s) + à s /m ref Σ j j φ p (t s) m ref = reference phantom organ mass Correction for Patient Organ Mass: D t = D np [m ref / m patient ] + D p [m ref / m patient patient ] 1/3 Pure β - emitter: D t D self = D np (t t) t) [m ref / m patient patient ]

17 Radioimmunotherapy: Dose Estimate Mass Correction Organ Mass Estimation 1. Estimate organ volume V (cc) from CT, MR or SPECT 2. Calculate organ mass m patient = V ρ ρ 1.0 g/cc (soft-tissue) tissue) ρ 0.3 g/cc (lung) ρ 1.5 g/cc (bone)

18 Radioimmunotherapy: Tracer Principle Assumption: A small (tracer) diagnostic amount of radiolabeled compound can be used to predict the biodistribution of the therapeutic administration (i.e., does not perturb the response of the biological system) A BioTher (t) = A BioDiag (t) x [ A InjTher / A InjDiag ]

19 Radioimmunotherapy Planning: Radioactivity Prescription A Therapy (0) = D Therapy / d Diagnostic D Therapy = tumor or organ prescribed total radiation absorbed dose d Diagnostic = tumor or dose-limiting organ unit radiation absorbed dose estimate from diagnostic tracer procedure

20 Planar Quantitative Imaging 1. [Optional] Transmission Scans (w/o [blank] & w/ patient) - attenuation correction for geometric mean (GM) quant. - not required if whole body at t = 0 is employed as standard for camera sensitivity calibration (see 3 below) 2.

22 Planar Quantitative Imaging 6. Conversion to absolute activity: µci, kbq - A(t) = (C(t) - A(t) = (C(t) (C(t) ACF) ACF) / S ; ACF = e µ thickness / 2 (GM), e µ depth (EPS) (C(t) Ainj(0)) / Cwb(0) (0) (whole body as std. GM method) 7. Decay Correction: A(t) A bio (t), f bio (t) - e λ imaging t, λ imaging = imaging isotope decay constant - mathematical model function fit to biologic component 8. Cumulated activity Ã, residence time Tres à = A bio (t)e -λ therapy t dt Tres = f bio (t)e (t)e -λ therapy 9.

35 Radionuclide Conversion Necessary when imaging and therapy radionuclides differ (e.g., 111 In/ 90 Y labeled antibody): imaging t A imaging (t) = A bio (t) e -λimaging t imaging t A bio (t) = A imaging (t) e λimaging t therapy t A therapy (t) = A bio (t) e -λtherapy t

36 Radioimmunotherapy: Blood-Based Based Marrow Dosimetry Blood Activity vs. each of N time points t i : 1. Draw whole blood (b) sample (X ml) from patient 2. Measure background cpm in well counter 3. Measure C b (t i ) bkgd = cpm/ml for 1 or 2 Y ml subsamples 4. Measure sensitivity from 1 or 2 Y ml decaying standard(s): S(t i ) = (C s (t i ) bkgd) ) / [A[ std (0) e -λ physti] ] (cpm( cpm/µci, cpm/mbq MBq) 5. Calculate biologic activity/ml: A ml (t i )=C b (t i )e λ physti/[ /[S avg (t i ) Y Y ml] Alternatively, at time t end : 1. Measure sensitivity S(t end ) (step 4) 2. Measure all C b (t i ) subsamples and simply correct to t = 0 ( ( e λ phystend end), as they are already effectively decay corrected

66 Approved Regimen for Zevalin: 2 Point (2 hr, 48 hr) Dose Estimates? Ex: Liver estimate based on 1 st 2 pts: T effin-111 = 68.2 hr (> T physin ,, which indicates Zevalin is biologically on the increase up to 24 hr!) GM cps(0) = Liver 111 In GM cps vs. Time 293.7e -.693t/68.2 Thus, coarse dose estimates based on just 1 st 2 points and mono-exponential model will suffice?

67 A Word About MIRDOSE v 3.1 ( Oak Ridge Associated Universities) Currently THE accepted standard (e.g., by FDA) for calculating radiation absorbed doses from internally administered radiopharmaceuticals, BUT a) only runs on Windows 95/98 (not NT/2000/XP) and b) is no longer publicly available, so: Use previously procured copy of the software (IF you have one) ELSE, procure S tables from a colleague who has the software ELSE calculate your own S factors!? Use radionuclide decay scheme and S factor formula Practical only for β - self-dose purposes: D t = Ã t S np (t t) t) Best case: pure β - emitter w/ simple decay scheme (e.g. 90 Y) ELSE, see and wait for OLINDA ( next MIRDOSE version, FDA approval pending)
