Abstract

Knowledge of tumor absorbed dose (AD)–response relationships is a critical first step toward personalizing dose regimens. This study investigated these relationships at a preclinical scale and modeled the observed tumor growth by considering both cellular AD-response relationships and tumor AD distributions. Using this framework, we compared the tumor AD-response of [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE and [161Tb]Tb-DOTATATE.

Methods

CA20948 xenograft-bearing mice were injected with a range of activities of [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE (1 nmol, 21.6–115.4 MBq) and [161Tb]Tb-DOTATATE (1 nmol, 17.3–91.7 MBq). The tumor doubling time was measured and correlated with individual tumor AD, determined with micro-SPECT imaging. The tumor-growth was also modeled based on cellular AD-response relationships, while considering subtumor AD distributions that were determined either with digital autoradiography or micro-SPECT.

Results

[161Tb]Tb-DOTATATE showed a 30% higher S-value for tumors compared to [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE, after a correction for subcellular heterogeneity. Both treatments reached a clinically relevant tumor AD-range of 9–85 Gy and 5–87 Gy, respectively. A positive correlation was observed between the tumor doubling time and the tumor AD (p < 0.0001, R2 = 0.58), with no significant difference in AD-response between [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE and [161Tb]Tb-DOTATATE (p = 0.24). The performance of the tumor-growth-model improved substantially after considering AD heterogeneity (from R2 = -64 up to R2 = 0.16).

Conclusion

The tumor doubling time showed a positive correlation with the tumor AD which was largely affected by the heterogeneous AD distribution within the tumor. Findings confirm that [161Tb]Tb-DOTATATE does not increase the therapeutic efficacy compared to [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE.
