Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Background Epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR) are overexpressed on > 90% of pancreatic cancers (PnCa) and represent an attractive target for the development of novel therapies, including radioimmunotherapy (RIT). Our aim was to study RIT of subcutaneous (s.c.) PANC-1 human PnCa xenografts in mice using the anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody, panitumumab labeled with Auger electron (AE)-emitting, 111 In or β-particle emitting, 177 Lu at amounts that were non-toxic to normal tissues. Results Panitumumab was conjugated to DOTA chelators for complexing 111 In or 177 Lu (panitumumab-DOTA-[ 111 In]In and panitumumab-DOTA-[ 177 Lu]Lu) or to a metal-chelating polymer (MCP) with multiple DOTA to bind 111 In (panitumumab-MCP-[ 111 In]In). Panitumumab-DOTA-[ 177 Lu]Lu was more effective per MBq exposure at reducing the clonogenic survival in vitro of PANC-1 cells than panitumumab-DOTA-[ 111 In]In or panitumumab-MCP-[ 111 In]In. Panitumumab-DOTA-[ 177 Lu]Lu caused the greatest density of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in the nucleus measured by immunofluorescence for γ-H2AX. The absorbed dose in the nucleus was 3.9-fold higher for panitumumab-DOTA-[ 177 Lu]Lu than panitumumab-DOTA-[ 111 In]In and 7.7-fold greater than panitumumab-MCP-[ 111 In]In. No normal tissue toxicity was observed in NOD/SCID mice injected intravenously (i.v.) with 10.0 MBq (10 μg; ~ 0.07 nmoles) of panitumumab-DOTA-[ 111 In]In or panitumumab-MCP-[ 111 In]In or in NRG mice injected i.v. with 6.0 MBq (10 μg; ~ 0.07 nmoles) of panitumumab-DOTA-[ 177 Lu]Lu. There was no decrease in complete blood cell counts (CBC) or increased serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or creatinine (Cr) or decreased body weight. RIT inhibited the growth of PANC-1 tumours but a 5-fold greater total amount of panitumumab-DOTA-[ 111 In]In or panitumumab-MCP-[ 111 In]In (30 MBq; 30 μg; ~ 0.21 nmoles) administered in three fractionated amounts every three weeks was required to achieve greater or equivalent tumour growth inhibition, respectively, compared to a single amount of panitumumab-DOTA-[ 177 Lu]Lu (6 MBq; 10 μg; ~ 0.07 nmoles). The tumour doubling time (TDT) for NOD/SCID mice with s.c. PANC-1 tumours treated with panitumumab-DOTA-[ 111 In]In or panitumumab-MCP-[ 111 In]In was 51.8 days and 28.1 days, respectively. Panitumumab was ineffective yielding a TDT of 15.3 days vs. 15.6 days for normal saline treated mice. RIT of NRG mice with s.c. PANC-1 tumours with 6.0 MBq (10 μg; ~ 0.07 nmoles) of panitumumab-DOTA-[ 177 Lu]Lu increased the TDT to 20.9 days vs. 11.5 days for panitumumab and 9.1 days for normal saline. The absorbed doses in PANC-1 tumours were 8.8 ± 3.0 Gy and 2.6 ± 0.3 Gy for panitumumab-DOTA-[ 111 In]In and panitumumab-MCP-[ 111 In]In, respectively, and 11.6 ± 4.9 Gy for panitumumab-DOTA-[ 177 Lu]Lu. Conclusion RIT with panitumumab labeled with Auger electron-emitting, 111 In or β-particle-emitting, 177 Lu inhibited the growth of s.c. PANC-1 tumours in NOD/SCID or NRG mice, at administered amounts that caused no normal tissue toxicity. We conclude that EGFR-targeted RIT is a promising approach to treatment of PnCa.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
