Reactive Oxygen Species Explicit Dosimetry for Photofrin‐mediated Pleural Photodynamic Therapy

Abstract: Explicit dosimetry of treatment light fluence and implicit dosimetry of photosensitizer photobleaching are commonly used methods to guide dose delivery during clinical PDT. Tissue oxygen, however, is not routinely monitored intraoperatively even though it is one of the three major components of treatment. Quantitative information about in vivo tissue oxygenation during PDT is desirable, because it enables reactive oxygen species explicit dosimetry (ROSED) for prediction of treatment outcome based on PDT‐induce… Show more

“…Of further consideration is observed variations in tissue levels of the photosensitizer (Photofrin), also reported in the Ong et al contribution to this issue (27). Photofrin levels could vary substantially between subjects, as well as among tissues of the same patient, a finding not dissimilar from that previously reported (37,38).…”

“…Median values varied by more than twofold, from 31 to 70 mW cm −2 . Four subjects (17,18,20,27) could be classified as “low fluence rate (LFR)” subjects based on the criteria that the 75 th percentile value was <50 mW cm −2 for fluence rate measurements among tissue sites in each of these subjects. Contrastingly, subjects 3, 8, 14 32 and 37 could be classified as “intermediate fluence rate subjects (IFR)” based on the criteria that the 25 th percentile value was > 50 mW cm −2 for all tissue sites in these subjects.…”

“…The report of Cengel et al (1) forms part of a growing body of work not only using PDT as an adjuvant to surgery (29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37)(38), but also in advancing explicit PDT dosimetry (39,40). Their work stands as an important contribution in assessing tissue optical properties and oxygenation, and sensitizer effects in the peritoneal cavity.…”

“…The sensitizer used by Cengel et al (1) for longer wavelength absorption at 690 nm was BPD, as it has better light penetration depth than the 630 nm used for Photofrin. But there are still needs in this area, including improved sensitizer localization in the tumor (29,30). In the Cengel studies (1), the BPD concentration is obtained by diffuse fluorescence spectroscopy in each particular tissue.…”
