Systemic Targeted Alpha Radiotherapy for Cancer
Background: The fundamental principles of internal targeted alpha therapy for cancer were established many decades ago.The high linear energy transfer (LET) of alpha radiation to the targeted cancer cellscauses double strand breaks in DNA. At the same time, the short range radiation spares adjacent normal tissues. This targeted approach complements conventional external beam radiotherapy and ch...
متن کاملTargeted radiotherapy for neuroblastoma.
Background Biologically targeted radiotherapy is an established treatment for thyrotoxicosis and thyroid cancer. The principle is to take advantage of the ability of the thyroid and, to a lesser degree, diVerentiated thyroid carcinoma to concentrate and retain iodide. In this situation the radionuclide (I) in ionic form is a natural substrate for targeting thyroid tissue, thus acting both as th...

متن کاملIn vivo molecular targeted radiotherapy
Unsealed radionuclides have been in clinical therapeutic use for well over half a century. Following the early inappropriate clinical administrations of radium salts in the early 20th century, the first real clinical benefits became evident with the use of (131)I-sodium iodide for the treatment of hypothyroidism and differentiated thyroid carcinoma and (32)P-sodium phosphate for the treatment o...
متن کاملTargeted gene therapy in radiotherapy
Radiotherapy is the use of ionizing radiation in the treatment of malignant tumors. It is one of the main treatment modalities for many forms of cancer, with more than half of all cancer patients receiving radiation therapy at some point in their treatment.1 Biological and technological advances have brought notable improvements in radiotherapy over the years. Biologically based advances includ...
