AbstractAbstract
[en] Dosimetric studies are reported for four hepatoma patients treated with 131I-labeled anti-ferritin following combination radiation and chemotherapy. Administered activities of radiolabeled antibody ranged from 93 to 157 mCi. Studies included liver and tumor volume calculations from sequences of computerized axial tomographic (CAT) scan slices, in-vivo quantitation of radiolabeled antibody in the liver and tumor, determination of kinetic parameters of radioimmunoglubulin for liver, tumor, and the total body, and computation of dose rates (rad/hour) and dose (rad) for these tissues. Mean values of the effective half-life for radiolabeled antibody in the liver and tumor were 7.4 days and for total-body activity 3.6 days, respectively. For the four patients, the calculated 131I radiation dose for tumor tissue ranged from 1500 to 2200 rad, for liver tissue from 400 to 1000 rad, and for total-body irradiation (TBI) from 110 to 220 rad
