- 188Re-PEI-MP as potential agent for metabolic radiotherapyPublication . Ferreira, Sara; Abrantes, Ana Margarida; Metello, Luís F.; Zeevart, Jan; Louw, Werner; Dormehl, Irene D.; Botelho, Maria FilomenaIntroduction: 188Re is a promising radionuclide for metabolic therapy because of the emission of high energy beta-particles. The development of watersoluble bone-seeking polymers such as PEI-MP (polyethyleneimine, functionalised with methylphosphonate-groups) that might be labeled with 188Re are recent approaches, with a strong potential for bone cancer treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 188Re-PEI-MP, as therapeutic agent for osteosarcoma, through in vitro and in vivo models.
