Biodistribution and dosimetry of 177 Lu-DOTA-IBA for therapy of bone metastases.
EJNMMI Research 2024 March 23
BACKGROUND: We designed and synthesized a novel bisphosphonate radiopharmaceutical (68 Ga- or 177 Lu-labeled DOTA-ibandronate [68 Ga/177 Lu-DOTA-IBA]) for the targeted diagnosis and treatment of bone metastases. The biodistribution and internal dosimetry of a single therapeutic dose of 177 Lu-DOTA-IBA were evaluated using a series of single-photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT) images and blood samples. Five patients with multiple bone metastases were included in this prospective study. After receiving 1110 MBq 177 Lu-DOTA-IBA, patients underwent whole-body planar, SPECT/CT imaging and venous blood sampling over 7 days. Dosimetric evaluation was performed for the main organs and tumor lesions. Safety was assessed using blood biomarkers.
RESULTS: 177 Lu-DOTA-IBA showed fast uptake, high retention in bone lesions, and rapid clearance from the bloodstream in all patients. In this cohort, the average absorbed doses (ADs) in the bone tumor lesions, kidneys, liver, spleen, red marrow, bladder-wall, and osteogenic cells were 5.740, 0.114, 0.095, 0.121, 0.095, and 0.333 Gy/GBq, respectively. Although no patient reached the predetermined dose thresholds, the red marrow will be the dose-limiting organ. There were no adverse reactions recorded after the administration of 1110 MBq 177 Lu-DOTA-IBA.
CONCLUSION: Dosimetric results show that the ADs for critical organs and total body are within the safety limit and with high bone retention. It is a promising radiopharmaceutical alternative for the targeted treatment of bone metastases, controlling its progression, and improving the survival and quality of life of patients with advanced bone metastasis.
