The purpose of this article is to evaluate feasibility and safety of the cancer targeting (radio)-chemoembolization drug-eluting bead (TRCE-DEB) concept drug SW43-DOX-L-NETA( 89 Y) DEB for the intra-arterial treatment of VX2 rabbit liver tumors. The treatment compound comprises of the sigma-2 receptor ligand SW43 for cancer targeting, doxorubicin (DOX), and 89 yttrium ( 89 Y) as nonradioactive surrogate for therapeutic (yttrium-90, lutetium-177) and imaging (yttrium-86) radioisotopes via the chelator L-NETA. Ten New Zealand white rabbits with VX2 tumor allografts were used. SW43-DOX- 89 Y was synthesized, loaded onto DEB (100 μL; 100-300 μm), and administered intra-arterially in six rabbits at increasing doses (0.2-1.0 mg/kg). As controls, two rabbits each received either doxorubicin IV (0.3 mg/kg) or no treatment. Consecutive serum analysis for safety and histopathological evaluation after sacrifice were performed. One-Way ANOVA incl. Bonferroni Post-Hoc test was performed to compare groups. Targeted compound synthesis, loading onto DEB, and intra-arterial administration were feasible and successful in all cases. Serum liver enzyme levels increased in a dose dependent manner within 24 h and normalized within 3 days for 0.2/0.6 mg/kg SW43-DOX- 89 Y loaded onto DEB. The two rabbits treated with 1 mg/kg SW43-DOX- 89 Y had to be euthanized after 3/24 h due to worsening general condition. Histopathological necrosis increased over time in a dose depended manner with 95-100% tumor necrosis 3-7 days post treatment (0.6 mg/kg). SW43-DOX- 89 Y loaded onto DEB can be formulated and safely administered at a concentration of 0.6 mg/kg. Loading with radioactive isotopes (e.g., 86 yttrium/ 90 yttrium/ 177 lutetium) to synthesize the targeted radio-chemoembolization drug-eluting bead (TRCE-DEB) concept drug is feasible.
