A novel internal radiation therapy (IRT) mode intended for controlled local delivery of Re-188-Tin colloid was developed by using chitosan-based thermosensitive hydrogel. Chitosan (C) and beta-glycerophosphate (beta-GP) were used to prepare the thermosensitive hydrogel (C/GP). The prepared C/GP hydrogel featured a rapid sol-gel transition within 5 min after it was brought into an environment of 37 degrees C. Re-188-Tin colloid was prepared with labeling efficiency of 93.9 +/- 0.6%, and could be increased to more than 98% following centrifugation. The average particle size of Re-188-Tin colloid was 12.1 +/- 1.2 mu m, with only 7.2 +/- 1.5% less than 1 mu m. Scintigraphic study showed that Re-188-Tin colloid contained in the C/GP hydrogel was localized (>91%) around the injection site for up to 48 h post injection, verifying the intended function of the IRT design. The developed novel form of IRT in this study could be an effective treatment mode for regional radiotherapy. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
