Biodistributions, Myelosuppression, and Toxicities in Mice Treated with an Anti-CD45 Antibody Labeled with the alpha-Emitting Radionuclides Bismuth-213 or Astatine-211
We previously investigated 213Bi-labeled anti-CD45 antibody to replace total body irradiation as conditioning for hematopoietic cell transplantation in a canine model. While this allowed sustained engraftment of marrow, limited availability and high cost of 213Bi led to a preliminary investigation in mice of 211At-labeled antibody for the same application. To gain an understanding of the differences between the two radionuclides, biodistribution and myelosuppression/toxicity studies were conducted with 213Bi- and 211At-labeled rat anti-murine CD45 antibody, 30F11, conjugates. After injecting mice with 2-50 μCi on 10 μg 30F11 conjugate or 20 μCi on 2 or 40 μg conjugate, biodistributions, myelosuppression and non-hematological toxicities were evaluated. Biodistribution studies showed that the spleen had the highest concentration of radioactivity, ranging from167-417 % injected dose/gram (%ID/g) at 24 h after injection in the 211At studies and 45-166 %ID/g at 3 h after injection in the 213Bi studies. The higher concentrations observed for 211At-labeled 30F11 was likely due to its longer half-life which, permitted more localization of antibody to the spleen before decay. 211At was more effective at myelosuppression for the same (mCi) quantity of injected radioactivity. Injection of only 20 or 50 μCi 211At resulted in lethal myeloablation. There was severe reversible acute hepatic toxicity with 50 μCi 213Bi, but not with lower doses or any dose of 211At. No significant renal toxicity occurred with either radionuclide. The data suggested that considerably lower quantities of 211At-labeled anti-CD45 antibody than 213Bi-labeled antibody might be effective for myelosuppression.
