Imaging and Characterization of Sustained Gadolinium Nanoparticle Release from Next Generation Radiotherapy Biomaterial

Résumé

Smart radiotherapy biomaterials (SRBs) present a new opportunity to enhance image-guided radiotherapy while replacing routinely used inert radiotherapy biomaterials like fiducials. In this study the potential of SRBs loaded with gadolinium-based nanoparticles (GdNPs) is investigated for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast. GdNP release from SRB is quantified and modelled for accurate prediction. SRBs were manufactured similar to fiducials, with a cylindrical shell consisting of poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) and a core loaded with GdNPs. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast was investigated at 7T in vitro (in agar) and in vivo in subcutaneous tumors grown with the LLC1 lung cancer cell line in C57/BL6 mice. GdNPs were quantified in-phantom and in tumor and their release was modelled by the Weibull distribution. Gd concentration was linearly fitted to the R1 relaxation rate with a detection limit of 0.004 mmol/L and high confidence level (R2 = 0.9843). GdNP loaded SRBs in tumor were clearly visible up to at least 14 days post-implantation. Signal decrease during this time showed GdNP release in vivo, which was calculated as 3.86 ± 0.34 µg GdNPs release into the tumor. This study demonstrates potential and feasibility for SRBs with MRI-contrast, and sensitive GdNP quantification and release from SRBs in a preclinical animal model. The feasibility of monitoring nanoparticle (NP) concentration during treatment, allowing dynamic quantitative treatment planning, is also discussed.
