alpha-Particles are suitable to treat cancer micrometastases because of their short range and very high linear energy transfer. alpha-Particle emitter Bi-213-based radioimmunotherapy has shown efficacy in a variety of metastatic animal cancer models, such as breast, ovarian, and prostate cancers. Its clinical implementation, however, is challenging due to the limited supply of Ac-225, high technical requirement to prepare radioimmunoconjugate with very short half-life (T-1/2 = 45.6 min) on site, and prohibitive cost. In this study, we investigated the efficacy of the alpha-particle emitter Ac-225, parent of Bi-213, in a mouse model of breast cancer metastases. A single administration of Ac-225 (400 nCi)-labeled anti-rat HER-2/neu monoclonal antibody (7.16.4) completely eradicated breast cancer lung micrometastases in similar to 67% of HER-2/neu transgenic mice and led to long-term survival of these mice for up to I year. Treatment with Ac-225-7.16.4 is significantly more effective than Bi-213-7.16.4 (120 mu Ci; median survival, 61 days; P = 0.001) and Y-90-7.16.4 (120 mu Ci; median survival, 50 days; P < 0.001) as well as untreated control (median survival, 41 days; P < 0.0001). Dosimetric analysis showed that Ac-225-treated metastases received a total dose of 9.6 Gy, significantly higher than 2.0 Gy from Bi-213 and 2.4 Gy from Y-90. Biodistribution studies revealed that Ac-225 daughters, Fr-221 and Bi-213, accumulated in kidneys and probably contributed to the long-term renal toxicity observed in surviving mice. These data Suggest Ac-225-labeled anti-HER-2/neu monoclonal antibody could significantly prolong survival in HER-2/neu-positive metastatic breast cancer patients. [Cancer Res 2009;69(23):8941-8]
