Description

Cynthia Lilieholm and a large team of co-authors test whether the choice of radioactive payload changes how well radiation therapy wakes up the immune system, in a 2025 study. The therapy targets a marker on neuroblastoma tumors and was paired with immune checkpoint drugs.

Mice with marked tumors received an antibody carrying one of three radionuclides, at two dose levels, with or without the immune drugs. All versions homed to tumors. The alpha emitter at the higher dose, plus immune drugs, gave the best survival and strong interferon-driven activation. A beta emitter instead thinned regulatory immune cells, lifting the killer-to-regulator balance. The authors conclude payload and dose must be tuned together.
