Monte Carlo Calculation of Radioimmunotherapy with 90Y-, 177Lu-, 131I-, 124I-, and 188Re-Nanoobjects: Choice of the Best Radionuclide for Solid Tumour Treatment by Using TCP and NTCP Concepts

Table 6

Total absorbed dose (), absorbed doses at the surface (), and absorbed doses in the centre () or surrounding the tumour (), in Gy, required to obtain a maximum TCP of 100% when nanoobjects containing 90Y, 177Lu, and 188Re are coupled with antibodies having a of 6 days and distributed uniformly, linearly, and exponentially inside a 1.0 cm radius spherical tumour. : number of radioactive atoms per nanoobjects required for TCP = 100%.
