Abstract

Cancer therapy using radionuclides is gaining much attention. Attached to tumor-specific vectors, isotopes emitting α, β, or Auger electron particles are being increasingly investigated for their ability to deliver radiation damage selectively to cancer tissues. In light of the recent approval of 177Lu-DOTATATE and 223RaCl2 therapy by regulators on both sides of the Atlantic and the highly promising results just reported for 177Lu–prostate-specific membrane antigen, investment and research interests in these and other radionuclide therapies are rapidly expanding. The purpose of the European Working Group is to promote knowledge, investment, and networking in the area of (radio)biology of radionuclide therapy.

This report details recent research and inspiring insights presented at the inaugural International Workshop on Radiobiology of Molecular Radiotherapy, held as a hybrid meeting in Montpellier, France, on March 17 and 18, 2021.
