The National Cancer Institute awarded a $600,079 Project Grant (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) to The Washington University in St. Louis to develop novel high linear energy transfer (high-LET) molecular radiotherapies for relapsed and refractory neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial solid cancer in children. The project aims to evaluate the efficacy, tumor control, and cellular/genomic effects of combination treatments using the high-LET radiopharmaceuticals 77Br-MBBG (Auger emitter) and 227Th-L804-LM3 (alpha emitter), compared to conventional beta-emitting radiotherapies like 131I-MIBG and 177Lu-DOTA-TATE. The project will use cultured cell lines and advanced patient-derived neuroblastoma models to optimize this combination therapy approach for potential near-term translation to the clinic. The Washington University will collaborate with a sub-awardee, The Johns Hopkins University, to provide computational dosimetry modeling and analysis support for the radiopharmaceutical studies. The project period runs from September 2024 to August 2029.
