Abstract

We previously investigated the potential of targeted radiotherapy using a bismuth-213- labeled anti-CD45 antibody to replace total body irradiation as conditioning for hematopoietic cell transplantation in a canine model. While this approach allowed sustained marrow engraftment, limited availability, high cost and short half-life of bismuth-213 induced us to investigate an alternative α-emitting radionuclide, astatine-211, for the same application. Biodistribution and toxicity studies were conducted with conjugates of the anti-murine CD45 antibody 30F11 with either bismuth-213 or astatine-211. Mice were injected with 2-50 μCi on 10 μg or 20 μCi on 2 or 40 μg 30F11 conjugate. Biodistribution studies showed that the spleen contained the highest concentration of radioactivity, ranging from 167±23 to 417±109 % injected dose/gram (%ID/g) after injection of the astatine-211 conjugate and 45±9 to 166±11 %ID/g after injection of the bismuth-213 conjugate. The higher concentrations observed for astatine-211- labeled 30F11 were due to its longer half-life, which permitted better localization of isotope to the spleen before decay. Astatine-211 was more effective at producing myelosuppression for the same quantity of injected radioactivity. All mice injected with 20 or 50 μCi astatine-211 but none with the same quantities of bismuth-213 had lethal myeloablation. Severe reversible acute hepatic toxicity occurred with 50 μCi bismuth-213, but not with lower doses of bismuth-213 or with any dose of astatine-211. No renal toxicity occurred with either radionuclide. The data suggest that smaller quantities of astatine-211-labeled anti-CD45 antibody are sufficient to achieve myelosuppression and myeloablation with less non-hematological toxicity compared with bismuth-213-labeled antibody.
