Many recent studies began to explore the therapeutic potential of FAP-targeted radionuclide therapy for refractory cancers. In this case, we presented the experience of multiple cycles of 177 Lu-FAPI-46 radionuclide therapy in a 34-year-old man with radioiodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RAIR-DTC). Intense radiotracer uptake was observed in RAIR-DTC metastatic lesions on the pretreatment 68 Ga-FAPI PET/CT and posttherapeutic scintigraphy. Follow-up examinations after 4 cycles of 177 Lu-FAPI-46 treatment revealed stable metastatic lesions, resulting in stable disease. This case demonstrated the potential feasibility of 177 Lu-FAPI-46 in the treatment of advanced RAIR-DTC; further research on improving the FAP-targeting vector may be necessary.
最近许多研究开始探索靶向成纤维细胞活化蛋白(FAP)的放射性核素疗法对难治性癌症的治疗潜力。在此病例中,我们介绍了一名34岁放射性碘难治性分化型甲状腺癌(RAIR-DTC)男性患者接受多周期177镥- FAPI-46放射性核素治疗的经验。在治疗前的68镓- FAPI PET/CT和治疗后的闪烁扫描中,RAIR-DTC转移病灶均观察到强烈的放射性示踪剂摄取。177镥- FAPI-46治疗4个周期后的随访检查显示转移病灶稳定,疾病稳定。该病例证明了177镥- FAPI-46治疗晚期RAIR-DTC的潜在可行性;可能有必要进一步研究改进FAP靶向载体。
