2 THERAPY IN NUCLEAR MEDICINE Nuclear Medicine and Metabolic Therapy Molecular Image Radiophysics and Radiochemistry: the radiopharmaceutical Detectors and Images References and Information Systems Processes en Nuclear Medicine Metabolic Therapy procedures: Bq = Gy Patient adjusted vs fixed activities? Individual dosimetry? Things to be done to improve and expand metabolic therapy

3 Functional, clinical Patient Many factors of variability Diagnostic 90%, therapy 10% Therapy >10% Medicine Physics, Chemistry, Image Nuclear Medicine, molecular image and therapy 99m Tc, low E Highly dependant of technology Tracer activities, No toxicity 177 Lu, 90 Y, α Therapeutic effect Toxicity

4 DETECTORS AND IMAGES: opportunities and challenges Dosimetry packages for Radioisotope Therapy planning

5 REFERENCES IN NM: standarisation

6 REFERENCES IN NM: process

7 REFERENCES IN NM: multidisciplinary teams And the Patient

8 PLANNING AND DOSIMETRY IN (non)-targeted THERAPY External RT Metabolic therapy Systemic administration: how much dose reaches the tumour? Systemic disease, often pre-terminal: outcome assessment Survival, time to relapse, tumour size change? How to measure toxicity: peripheral blood? Bone marrow G0? GI?

9 PLANNING AND DOSIMETRY IN (non)-targeted THERAPY So far, individual dose planning and dosimetry haven t been common procedures in the clinical practice. Calculation of the (approximated) absorbed dose for RIT in NM: Uses the distribution of the activity through images over time Too many assumptions from anatomical or mathematical models, non reproducible. standard anatomy. uniform radiopharmaceutical distribution (body, tumour volume) Complex and time-consuming procedures for doctors and patients Interpersonal variability Difficulty on assessing effects and toxicity No evident effect on clinical outcomes We work with data from scientific evidence (clinical trials on survival and toxicity)

10 PLANNING AND DOSIMETRY IN (non)-targeted THERAPY Conclusion: As radionuclide therapy enters an era where patient-specific dosimetry is used to guide treatments, accurate bone-marrow and whole-body dosimetry will become an essential element of treatment planning. We hope that these guidelines will provide a basis for the optimization and standardization of the treatment of cancer with radiopharmaceuticals, which will facilitate single- and multicentre radionuclide therapy studies.

11 METABOLIC THERAPY: why not (so far) and what for? 131 I for Hiperthyroidism 131 I in Differentiated Thyroid cancer 90 Y-microspheres to liver 177 Lu-DOTATATE in neuroendocrine tumours 90 Y-Ibritumumab-tiuxetan for Lymphoma 223 Ra-Dichloride for blastic bone metastases

12 METABOLIC THERAPY Prescription reviewed Multidisciplinary team Other exams / lab Other image as needed; non futile exams Informed and written consent Patient preparation Daily life activities survey Activity, dose ratio (microsv/h) and recommendations to patient s chart RP recommendations to relatives and environement Follow-up

13 131 I for HYPERTHYROIDISM Diffuse hyperthyroidism: Gy Hyperfunctioning nodules: Gy More cure rates with fixed activities (90 % cure -60 % hypothyroidism-) Less hypothyroidism with calculated activities Fixed activities: mci Radiation sensitivity of the gland Estimated weight of the gland Out patient Function dynamics Aim: to cure hyperthyroidism

14 131 I for HYPERTHYROIDISM 15 mci Apr 2015 Jan 2016 Response to TRAK and TSH levels Evolving functional changes

18 131 I for DIFFERENTIATED THYROID CANCER Tumour kinetics Uptake measures difficult due to TSHr-e or deprivation Stunning Er

19 131 I for DIFFERENTIATED THYROID CANCER Usually, planar images No measurable tumour volume

20 131 I for DIFFERENTIATED THYROID CANCER The goals of 131 I in thyroid cancer are: To kill thyroid cells (normal or tumoral) To avoid futile treatments in refractary patients Different kinetics mci a. CPT T3 N1a M0. E III

26 90 Y to LIVER: Hepatocellular carcinoma and colorectal metastases Hepatocellular carcinoma and colorectal metastases Well tolerated Favorable dosimetry to medical staff Survival increased by 5-10 m Not fully integrated in the therapeutic algorithm because radiation and procedure fears

27 90 Y to LIVER: Hepatocellular carcinoma and colorectal metastases Hepatic tumours nourrised by hepatic artery Activity according to tumor density, volume, shunt and clinical situation, related to survival All these are key points for strong variability Braat J Nucl Med 2015; 15

32 177 Lu-DOTATATE for NEUROENDOCRINE TUMOURS NETs are different kind of tumours Expression of somatostatin receptors when well differentiated 90 Y, 177 Lu - Somatostatin analogues are high affinity and specific target to SR Metastatic or inoperable Neoadjuvant use Benefit on survival!! New treatment, to be clearly positioned

33 33 Objective Responses Currently evaluable patients 177-Lu-Dotatate (n=101)* Sandostatin LAR 60 mg (n=100)* Complete Response (n) 1 0 Partial Response (n) 17 3 Objective Response Rate (*) 18% 3% Confidence Interval (95%) 10% - 25% 0% - 6% Statistical Significance p = All patients (n=116) (n=113) Progressive Disease 6 (5%) 27 (24%) Stable Disease 77 (66%) 70 (62%) (*) Exclude patients with no post-baseline scans or central response available

34 34 Summary and Conclusions Final analysis : In this first prospective randomized study in patients with progressive metastatic midgut NETs, 177 Lu-Dotatate was superior to Octreotide 60 mg in terms of: PFS (Not Reached vs 8.4 months, p<0.0001) ORR (18% vs 3%, p=0.0008) Interim analysis suggests increased OS (13 vs 22 deaths), to be confirmed by final analysis 177 Lu-Dotatate demonstrates a favorable safety profile, with no clinically relevant findings especially regarding hematological, renal and hepatic parameters While few treatment options are available for patients progressing under SSAs, 177 Lu-Dotatate has a major therapeutic benefit for this patient population
