Localization and Tumor Growth Inhibition of I-131-Labeled Monoclonal Antibody ERIC1 in a Subcutaneous Xenograft Model of Small Cell Lung Cancer in SCID Mice.

ABSTRACT: This study evaluates the efficacy of [¹³¹I]I-ERIC1 in targeting and inhibiting the growth of SCLC tumors in mice, focusing on tumor accumulation and regression and potential side effects. NCAM-positive NCI-H69 SCLC cells were implanted in CB 17 SCID mice, and [¹³¹I]I-ERIC1 biokinetics were measured in organs and tissues at four post-injection time points (24, 72, 96, and 120 h). The experimental series compared tumor growth, survival, and changes in blood counts among three treatment groups (1, 2, or 3 MBq) and a control group, with treatments initiated either two or five days post implantation. [¹³¹I]I-ERIC1 was synthesized with >95% radiochemical purity and a specific activity of 15 TBq/mmol. Tumor activity peaked at 31.5 ± 6.6% ID/g after four days, demo
