BEST IN PHYSICS THERAPY: Immunomodulatory Effects of Selective PARP1 Inhibition in Combination with Photon and Alpha Particle Therapy in Immunologically Cold Breast Cancer

Authors: Scott James Bright, Vered Domankevich-Bachar, Mandira Manandhar, Poliana Marinello, Yogesh Rai, Marco Freitas Reis, Alexandre Rubinstein, Gabriel O. Sawakuchi, Ronen Segal, Walison Augusto Silva Brito, Mark Wasley, Amy Wu

Affiliation: MD Anderson Cancer Center, Alpha Tau Medical Ltd, Alpha Tau Medical LTD, Department of Radiation Physics, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Immunologically cold breast cancers are aggressive and difficult to treat due to their lack of immune cell infiltration. The combination of high-LET radiation with DNA repair inhibitors offer...

Modeling Alpha-Particle Dose from Diffusing Alpha-Emitters Radiation Therapy in Tissue with Inhomogeneous Diffusion

Authors: Lior Arazi, Gil'ad N. Cohen, Antonio L. Damato, Irene P. Zhang

Affiliation: Unit of Nuclear Engineering, Faculty of Engineering Sciences, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, NYU Grossman School of Medicine, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Diffusing alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy (β€œAlpha DaRT”) is a promising new radiation therapy modality for treating bulky tumors. The dose delivered by Alpha-DaRT sources is dependent on the...
