Lo que Trump firmó el 10 de agosto ya lo probamos aquí. Salió carísimo.
En la consulta, todavía me entran los niños de la polio. Ya no son niños, naturalmente, pero desde entonces cargan su peso entero sobre medio cuerpo.
Piernas que no crecieron igual. Columnas torcidas. Caderas gastadas. O huesos de cristal que se rompen continuamente. 80 años, pagando la decisión que tomaron otras personas.
Porque la historia de la polio en España es indignante. La vacuna ya existía. Estaba funcionando en otros países. Y aquí tardó ocho años en empezar a ponerse masivamente. Mientras se negaba la epidemia porque quedaba fea. Mientras los dos bandos del régimen se peleaban por ver con quien firmaban la vacuna.
A más de uno la vacuna oral le sonaba a comunista, porque era la que se usaba en Rusia. Cuando se mezclan salud y política, suelen pasar estas mierdas (con perdón)
Ocho años de niños enfermos con la solución en un cajón. Gente con muy pocas competencias, decidiendo sobre cosas que no entendían.
Ahora, un señor de piel de naranja, firma un decreto en Washington. Recorta el calendario vacunal. Propone que la triple vírica se dé en tres pinchazos separados. Y encima lo hace en medio del peor brote de sarampión que tiene su país en décadas. Lo vende como libertad para los padres. Libertad.
Supongo que es la misma libertad que tuvo el señor que viene a mi consulta con los huesos osteoporóticos de aquel brote de polio español.
Los que firman esto no van a estar delante cuando llegue la factura. Nunca están.
Estaremos nosotros, veinte años después, explicándole a alguien por qué se rompe o cojea.

Lutetium-177 DOTATOC vs. everolimus (COMPETE Trial) in @TheLancet
Another HUGE win for #Theranostics.
First site activated globally was @PeterMacCC in Dec 2016. Congrats Prof Michael Michael & A/Prof Grace Kong and the NETS team... a decade in the making!
Progression-free survival longer with Lu-177: 24 vs. 14 months, with much LESS side effects.
Objective response rate: 22% vs. 4%
Patient reported quality-of-life: +1 vs. -10 (global health status)
All endpoints favour Lutetium-177.

#VIOLET Study of Terbium-161 (Tb-161) Beta/Auger therapy @ASCO#ASCO25
First prospective trial of Terbium-161 in any tumour type
🟣 30 patient trial in prostate cancer. No dose limiting toxicities at highest level of radioactivity (7.4 GBq)
🟣 Very few side effects: 1 grade 3 lymphopenia, 1 grade 3 pain exacerbation. No grade 4. No dose delays.
🟣 PSA >90% response in 40%
🟣 Completed >6 months ahead of schedule

FDA expands Pluvicto’s metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer indication
https://t.co/7cB1kZxh2h
The @US_FDA 🇺🇸expanded the indication for lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan to include adults with PSMA-positive metastatic castration-resistant #ProstateCancer (mCRPC) who have been treated with an androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI) and are considered appropriate to delay taxane-based chemotherapy.
Approval was based on the PSMAfore
Overall survival (OS) improvement was not statistically significant. Safety findings were consistent with prior experience, with risks including radiation exposure, myelosuppression, and renal toxicity.

Twenty cycles (that's right 20) of Lutetium-177 PSMA-617 for metastatic castration-resistant cancer!! Check our case report just published in @JournalofNucMed
https://t.co/SxijIjQfKg
Current randomized controlled data demonstrate the safety and efficacy of 6 cycles of [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 therapy in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. In our first phase 2 trial, 15 of 30 patients received additional cycles; 11 (73%) had a subsequent prostate-specific antigen (PSA) decline of 50% or more. A German multicenter study also supported extended therapy in 111 patients, with a median survival of 31.1 mo from the first administration and no increase in grade 3–4 toxicities.
We describe safety and efficacy in a patient who received 20 cycles of [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-PSMA-617, receiving a total administered radioactivity of 129 GBq over 5 y. Initially diagnosed at age 59 with de novo bone-only metastatic prostate cancer and a PSA of 96 ug/L, he underwent intermittent androgen deprivation therapy for 13 y before requiring palliative radiotherapy for painful bone metastases. The following year, he was treated with 6 cycles of docetaxel, followed by 18 mo of enzalutamide.
On progression with a PSA of 195 ug/L and a doubling time of 3.0 mo, the patient received 6 cycles of [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-PSMA-617, with a PSA nadir of 3.2 ug/L, as part of the TheraP trial. Paired PSMA PET/CT (SUVmax, 73; SUVmean, 10.7) and 18F-FDG PET/CT (metabolic tumor volume, 14 cm3) at enrollment had favorable characteristics. A second treatment block of 2 cycles of [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 was given 266 d after cycle 6 (14 mo after cycle 1) on a clinical registry, resulting in a PSA decline of more than 90% (nadir, 14.2 ug/L) and a further treatment break of 229 d. The treatment-free interval remained similar between treatment blocks 2 and 3 at 216 d; however, this interval shortened to 75 and 78 d between blocks 4 and 5 and blocks 5 and 6, respectively (see Figure).
After cycle 15, he continued to receive symptomatic benefit, but on-treatment biochemical and imaging progression emerged. The hemoglobin and platelet nadirs were 98 g/L and 115 × 109/L, respectively, occurring after cycle 18. Renal function remained normal, with an estimated glomerular filtration rate of 92 mL/min after cycle 20, compared with 117 mL/min at baseline, and an estimated cumulative kidney dose of 55.5 Gy. This exceeds the 23-Gy maximum tolerated dose defined by external-beam radiotherapy, highlighting the limitation of extrapolating external-beam radiotherapy normal-organ constraints to radiopharmaceutical therapy. Grade 1 xerostomia occurred from cycle 3 and remained mild and transient, usually lasting a few days after many, but not all, cycles.
After cycle 20, he received 2 cycles of cabazitaxel and had a clinical response but subsequently progressed with new brain metastases and physical decline; he died 2 mo later at age 81, 4.9 y after the initiation of [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-PSMA-617. In conclusion, in selected patients, [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 appears to have substantial benefits beyond 6 cycles.

De nuevo hay desabastecimiento de Tecnecio en Medicina Nuclear. Hay pocos reactores nucleares en el mundo capaces de producir Molibdeno. España tuvo uno en la Junta de Energía Nuclear pero se cerró. En China se están instalando 11 reactores q posiblemente resuelvan el problema.
