The calculation of an individual total number of decays or time-integrated activities (TIAs) of a radiopharmaceutical for kidneys is desirable for dosimetry in molecular radiotherapy. The accuracy of the TIAs calculation relies heavily on the chosen fit model. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the best mathematical model of 177Lu-DOTATATE in peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) using the nonlinear mixed effect (NLME) and model selection method. Pharmacokinetics data of 177Lu-DOTATATE in the kidneys of ten PRRT patients were obtained from the literature (PMID: 33443063). Eleven sums of exponential (SOE) functions were fitted to the pharmacokinetics data in the NLME framework. The model selection was performed based on the goodness of fit test and the corrected Akaike Information Criterion (AICc). The goodness of fit was evaluated based on the fitted graphs visualization, coefficient of variations (CV<50%), and the off-diagonal elements of the correlation matrix (-0,8≤CM≤0,8). In general, all SOE functions were successfully fitted to the pharmacokinetic data of 177Lu-DOTATATE in kidneys. The function f 4 e ( t ) = A 1 / { ( α λ 1 + λ p h y s ) − ( 1 − α λ 2 + λ p h y s ) − ( 2 α − 1 λ b c + λ p h y s ) } . e − ( λ p h y s ) t . { α e − λ 1 t − ( 1 − α ) e − λ 2 t − ( 2 α − 1 ) e − λ b c t } was selected as the best mathematical model with an AICc weight of 77.58 %.

Non-Linear Mixed Effect (NLME) is a method used in the area under the measured time-activity curve (AUC) calculations. The calculation of an accurate AUC is needed for an accurate determination of the radiation absorbed dose. In NLME, the error model might affect the accuracy of the estimation of the AUC. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of error models on AUC calculations using NMLE. The data used in this study were from biokinetic data of the 111In-DOTATATE biodistribution in the tumour collected from the literature. The data were fitted using published bi-exponential function $f(t) = {{({{\rm{k}}_e} \times {{\rm{k}}_a})} \over {c({{\rm{k}}_a} - {{\rm{k}}_e})}}\left[ {{e^{ - ({{\rm{k}}_e})t}} - {e^{ - ({{\rm{k}}_a})t}}} \right]$ with several error models, namely constant, proportional, combined and exponential errors. The mean and standard deviation were determined from the AUC for each error model AUC values obtained from constant, proportional, combined, and exponential error were (4.40 ± 1.93) nmol·min, (3.13 ± 2.74) nmol·min, (3.22 ± 2.85) nmol·min and (3.14 ± 2.75) nmol·min, respectively. Based on the research results, the proportional, combined and exponential error were relatively produced better results compared to the constant error model in our dataset.
