- Lu-177-octreotate is an FDA-approved radionuclide therapy for patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) expressing somatostatin receptors. The Lu-177-octreotate therapy has shown promising results in clinical trials by prolonging progression-free survival, but complete responses are still uncommon. The aim of this study was to improve the Lu-177-octreotate therapy by means of combination therapy. To identify radiosensitising inhibitors, two cell lines, GOT1 and P-STS, derived from small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours (SINETs), were screened with 1224 inhibitors alone or in combination with external radiation. The screening revealed that inhibitors of Hsp90 can potentiate the tumour cell-killing effect of radiation in a synergistic fashion (GOT1; false discovery rate < 3.2 x 10(-11)). The potential for Hsp90 inhibitor ganetespib to enhance the anti-tumour effect of Lu-177-octreotate in an in vivo setting was studied in the somatostatin receptor-expressing GOT1 xenograft model. The combination led to a larger decrease in tumour volume relative to monotherapies and the tumour-reducing effect was shown to be synergistic. Using patient-derived tumour cells from eight metastatic SINETs, we could show that ganetespib enhanced the effect of Lu-177-octreotate therapy for all investigated patient tumours. Levels of Hsp90 protein expression were evaluated in 767 SINETs from 379 patients. We found that Hsp90 expression was upregulated in tumour cells relative to tumour stroma in the vast majority of SINETs. We conclude that Hsp90 inhibitors enhance the tumour-killing effect of Lu-177-octreotate therapy synergistically in SINET tumour models and suggest that this potentially promising combination should be further evaluated.

- The kidneys are one of the most exposed non-tumor tissues and regarded as one of the main dose-limiting organs in peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT). [177Lu-DOTA0, Tyr3]-octreotate (177Lu-octreotate) has shown promising results in the treatment of somatostatin receptor overexpressing neuroendocrine tumors, but optimization is still needed. The ability to give each patient as much 177Lu-octreotate as possible without inducing nephrotoxicity is necessary for an efficient treatment. However, due to large inter-individual differences in uptake and retention in the kidneys, there is a need for efficient Methods that early can indicate renal injury. A possible way is to identify biomarkers for high risk of radiation nephrotoxicity. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of using urinary retinol binding protein (RBP), and blood valinhydantoin (VH) as biomarkers of nephrotoxicity on adult mice after 177Lu-octreotate treatment. BALB/c nude mice (n=6/group) were i.v. injected with 60 MBq or 120 MBq of 177Lu-octreotate. The control group was mock treated with saline. Spot urine samples were collected before injection, and 14, 30, 60 and 90 days after injection. Analysis of RBP4 and creatinine was performed using Mouse RBP4 ELISA kit and Creatinine kit from R&D Systems, respectively. Erythrocytes were separated from whole blood samples collected 90 days after injection, and analysed for VH by LC-MS/MS. The ratio between VH and a volumetric standard was calculated. The RBP/creatinine level increased with time in both groups given 177Lu-octreotate, with earlier and higher response for the 120 MBq group. No clear change in VH level between the different groups was observed. The result show that RBP may be a promising new biomarker for radiation induced kidney toxicity. The presently used method based on VH was not sensitive enough to be used as kidney toxicity marker. Further studies on mice are ongoing to validate if RBP4 may be efficient in predicting late nephrotoxicity. In patients, RBP/creatinine levels are followed in urine samples after treatment with 177Lu-octreotate.

- Daily rhythmic changes are found in cellular events in cell cycle, DNA repair, apoptosis and angiogenesis in both normal and tumour tissue, as well as in enzymatic activity and drug metabolism. In this paper, we hypothesize that circadian rhythms need to be considered in radiation protection and optimization in personalized medicine, especially for paediatric care. The sensitivity of the eye lens to ionizing radiation makes the case for limiting damage to the lens epithelium by planning medical radio-imaging procedures for the afternoon, rather than the morning. Equally, the tumour and normal tissue response to radiotherapy is also subject to diurnal variation enabling optimization of time of treatment.

- Tissue parameters derived from multiparametric MRI were evaluated as potential imaging biomarkers for therapy response assessment in mice with human neuroendocrine tumor treated with 177Lu-octreotate. Animals were imaged before and repeatedly after 177Lu-octreotate treatment, using T2w, IVIM-DWI, DCE-MRI, T1- and T2*-mapping techniques. MR-parameters were evaluated regionally and longitudinally, and quantitative proteomics was used to evaluate underlying biological response in central and peripheral tumor separately. Several MR-parameters showed strong correlation with tumor response, as verified by MRI-based tumor volume measurements, but also with proteins associated with radiobiological effects on tumor tissue. Spatial and temporal evaluation increased sensitivity of the methods.

- Introduction: Neuroendocrine (NE) tumors expressing somatostatin receptors (SSTR) are often treated with 177Lu-octreotate. The treatment is highly successful in animal models, but low cure rates in clinical studies suggests optimization of treatment protocol is needed. Little is known about which cellular responses play a crucial role in neuroendocrine tumors after irradiation. It is therefore important to identify the effects of 177Lu-octreotate on biological functions for future optimization of treatment parameters and the identification of biomarkers predicting treatment response. The aim of this study was to investigate the transcriptional response of GOT1 midgut carcinoid in nude mice following 177Lu-octreotate treatment. Methods: GOT1 bearing BALB/c nude mice were i.v. injected with 15 MBq 177Lu-octreotate and tumor size was measured twice a week using calipers. Animals were killed after 1, 3, 7 or 41 days and tumor samples excised and snap frozen in liquid nitrogen. Total RNA was extracted from tumor samples and subjected to Illumina microarray expression analysis. Differential transcriptional profiles were identified by comparing treated and untreated tumor samples using Nexus Expression 3.0 software. Associated biological functions and biological pathways (according to Gene Ontology terms) were compared using Nexus Expression 3.0 and Ingenuity IPA. Results: The mean tumor volume was clearly reduced after 177Lu-octreotate treatment. Microarray analysis showed clear difference in regulation pattern between the time points. The analysis of associated biological functions revealed clear effect on cell death and survival, and cell cycle after 1, 3, and 7 days, while cellular movement and cellular development were clearly influenced after 41 days. Cellular growth and proliferation was also affected after 1 day but not at the other time points studied. Conclusions: : Analysis of the transcriptional regulation in GOT1 tumors in nude mice following 177Lu-octreotate treatment revealed responses in different cellular functions that were distinct for each time point. These findings indicate potential venues for increasing clinical effectiveness of midgut carcinoid therapy with 177Lu-octreotate.

- Background: 177Lu-octreotate can be used for therapy of somatostatin receptor expressing neuroendocrine tumors (NET). 177Lu-octreotate therapy has achieved high cure rates in GOT1 (human small intestine NET) transplanted to nude mice. However, clinical studies result in moderate response, and complete tumor remission is rarely seen. Solid tumors often develop necrotic cores during growth due to e.g. insufficient vascularization, which may account for the different uptake kinetics and varying therapeutic success seen after 177Lu-octreotate treatment. It is therefore important to explore the cellular effects of 177Lu-octreotate to further optimize treatment parameters and identify biomarkers for treatment response assessment. Aim: To detect significant changes in protein profiles from peripheral and central samples of GOT1 tumor after 177Lu-octreotate therapy. Methods: GOT1 bearing BALB/c nude mice were i.v. injected with 15 MBq 177Lu-octreotate (corresponding to 4 Gy tumor absorbed dose) and killed after 13 days. Total cellular proteins were extracted from the peripheral and central parts of surgically excised tumor samples. Proteomic profiling was generated using liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), followed by database-based protein identification and relative quantification. Functional annotation of proteins was performed using the DAVID bioinformatics resource tool. Results: The LC-MS/MS analysis identified 58 differentially expressed proteins (p<0.05, Fold Change>1.2) between the peripheral and central parts of tumor samples. Forty of these showed higher levels in the peripheral compared with the central samples, and among them were proteins associated with blood vessel/vasculature development (e.g. FAK1, H6ST1, LMA4, and SYWM), regulation of cell cycle and apoptosis (e.g. FAK1 and MK01), and cellular integrity (e.g. PDLI5, CALD1, FERM2, and NEB2). Conclusions: Taken together, these findings suggest spatial differences in tumor response to 177Lu-octreotate, mainly constituted by differences in vascularization and cellular integrity. These findings indicate potential venues for prognostic evaluation of NET therapy using 177Lu-octreotate. However, further studies are needed to determine whether these effects are time- and/or dose-dependent.
