A Deep Dive into Radiopharmaceuticals, Dosimetry, and AI Integration
Over the past 30 years, the risk of dying from cancer has consistently decreased, saving approximately 4 million lives in the United States. Despite this positive trend, 2024 is projected to mark a milestone with an estimated two million new cancer cases, presenting a new challenge.1 In the field of cancer treatment, the growing interest in radiopharmaceuticals and dosimetry is evident. The increasing demand for personalized medicine applications and their impact on clinical outcomes suggests a rising need for tailored dosage and treatment for each patient’s cancer profile.
While the trajectory of radiopharmaceutical dosimetry is promising, current challenges persist within the clinical trial landscape. Deficiencies in existing guidelines from regulatory bodies such as the FDA, EANM, and FNIH, pose hurdles that need addressing. Despite these challenges, a recent survey reveals that many biopharmaceutical companies are actively incorporating dosimetry into their future development plans, highlighting a commitment to overcoming these challenges.
The landscape is evolving with notable advancements in routine clinical dosimetry, driven by emerging technologies. These developments not only shift market dynamics and attract substantial funding but have broadened across various applications in radiation oncology. Looking ahead, the convergence of dosimetry and artificial intelligence (AI) presents a compelling frontier. AI-driven dosimetry methods hold the promise of delivering personalized, precision medicine. Positive insights from ongoing work suggest that AI has the potential to predict toxicity and outcomes, shaping a future where predicative dosimetry becomes a reality.
