Combination of Carriers with Complementary Intratumoral Microdistributions of Delivered α-Particles May Realize the Promise for 225Ac in Large, Solid Tumors

Abstract: Alpha-particle radiotherapy has already been shown to be impervious to most resistance mechanisms. However, in established (i.e. large, vascularized) soft-tissue lesions, the diffusion-limited penetration depths of radiolabeled antibodies and/or nanocarriers (up to 50-80µm) combined with the short range of α-particles (4-5 cell diameters) may result in only partial tumor irradiation potentially limiting treatment efficacy. To address this challenge, we combined carriers with complementary intratumoral microdis… Show more

“…In addition, Figure 4 shows that on the same (intermediate) size spheroids (r = 200 μm) with increasing PSMA‐expression levels (left‐to‐right), the best inhibition of spheroid growth was exhibited when increasing fractions of the radioactivity were delivered by the liposomes. This is because the radiolabeled antibody delivers its therapeutic cargo mostly in the periphery of the spheroid (the so‐called binding site barrier effect) 12,21 : increasing PSMA‐expression levels by cells required a lower fraction of the antibody‐delivered radioactivity, since the same levels of delivered radioactivity per cell could be reached at lower antibody concentrations given the increased numbers of receptors per cell. In Figure 4a, on spheroids that do not express detectable PSMA levels, both the liposomes and the antibodies behaved as nontargeting particles with the latter being significantly smaller.…”

“…The extracellular pH e maps of PSMA‐expressing PC3‐PIP subcutaneous tumors confirmed the development of acidity in the interstitium, with regions reaching as low pH e values as 6.5 (Figure 6a); these pH e values were adequate to activate both the release and adhesion properties on the tumor‐responsive liposomes (Table 1). 12,16 …”

“…Unlike radiometal alpha-emitter complexes, 211 At is a radiohalogen that can be covalently incorporated into small molecule drugs that provides a unique platform for alpha-therapeutics targeted to intracellular proteins. Furthermore, sufficient tumor diffusion of alpha-emitting therapeutics has been shown to be a critical component for optimal tumor response 16 , and organic small molecule PARPi exhibit large volume of distribution that suggests rapid transfer of drug from circulation to peripheral tissues. In this study we seek to deliver alpha-radiation directly to cancer cell nuclei by targeting PARP1.…”
