A mathematical model simulation was performed to estimate the amount of radioactivity in plasma, normal tissues, and tumor tissue through three delivery approaches: one step radiolabeled monoclonal antibody (MAb) CC49 i.v. bolus injection, two step method with biotin conjugated CC49 i.v. bolus injection followed 72 hours later by i.v. bolus radiolabeled streptavidin injection, and gene therapy method to express biotin on the tumor cell surface followed by i.v. bolus radiolabeled streptavidin injection. The mathematical model was built based on a system of ordinary differential equations consisting of inputs and outputs of model components in plasma, normal tissues, and tumor tissue. Through computer modeling, we calculated concentrations of each component for plasma, tumor and normal tissues at various time points. Radioactivity ratios of tumor to plasma and tumor to normal tissues increased with time. The increase of tumor to normal tissue ratios was much faster for the gene therapy approach than for single step and two step approaches, e.g., a ratio of 24.26 vs. 2.06 and 6.24 at 72 hours after radioligand injection. Radioactivity ratios predicted by the model varied with the amount of radioactivity injected and the time interval between injections. The model could be used to evaluate different radioimmunotherapy strategies and to predict radioactivity biodistribution using other receptor-ligand systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
