The New Golden Era for Radioimmunotherapy: Not Just for Lymphomas Anymore

Abstract: RIT for solid malignancies shows promise, typically with fewer adverse events than traditional cytotoxic systemic therapy. The greatest efficacy will likely be in the adjuvant setting of minimal residual disease. Newer radionuclides, particularly alpha-emitters, offer increased antitumor potency with less toxicity. Physicians and patients should be encouraged to participate in clinical trials of these promising agents.

“…Although radioimmunotherapy has clearly been established as an effective treatment strategy for patients with lymphoma (36,37) in solid tumors, radioimmunotherapy alone has had modest response rates, and the addition of chemotherapy has emerged as an important strategy to improve response rates (34). The optimization of antibody kinetics (e.g., multistep targeting) and isotopes (e.g., 177 Lu) has also emerged as an important factor in improving response rates (36,38).…”

“…The combination of radioimmunotherapy with chemotherapy to induce enhanced antitumor effects has been extensively explored in preclinical models (23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28) and in a small number of phase I/II studies in patients with advanced solid tumors, with a suggestion of antitumor activity in some (29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34). The aim of this approach is to use chemotherapy as a radiosensitizer, so that cancer cell cycle is arrested in the radiosensitive G(2)/M phase and efficacy is improved.…”

“…La RIT utilisant des émetteurs β -a montré son efficacité en cancérologie, au niveau préclinique et en clinique. Elle a surtout montré son efficacité en hématologie, dans le traitement des lymphomes non hodgkiniens où elle est devenue un traitement de référence en complément de la chimiothérapie [3][4][5][6][7][8]. À ce jour, les deux seules applications de la radioimmunothé rapie homologuées par la FDA (food and drug administration, « agence américaine des produits alimentaires et médicamenteux ») utilisent des émetteurs β …”

“…RIT has shown high potential as an adjuvant treatment in many types of malignancies [1][2][3]. However, a limitation of treatments with radiolabeled antibodies is that they typically require several hours after intravenous (i. v.) injection to localise the tumour cells.…”
