“…Yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan ( 90 Y-IT) or ZEVAKIN® contains a radioactive substance called Yttrium-90 ( 90 Y) to treat certain types of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) or previously untreated follicular NHL who get a partial or complete response to first-line chemotherapy. Yttrium-90 emits beta particles (2.28 MeV) with a physical half-life of 64.1 hours (2.67 days) [83,87].…”

“…90 Y emits beta particles, which penetrate soft tissue to a relatively long spatial depth of 5.3 mm. Therefore, 90 Y-labeled mAbs cause DNA damage to the targeted cells as well as to adjacent or more distant cells due to their long range [ 19 ]. As a result of this cross-fire effect, there is an expectation that FF-21101( 90 Y) will have a more positive therapeutic impact on treating solid tumors than anti-CDH3 therapies alone, making 90 Y ideal for this purpose [ 20 ].…”
