This in vitro proof-of-concept study aims to predict head and neck tumor nodule viability in vitro following PDT with TLD1433 using the IGS probe ABY-029. ABY-029 is an EGFR-specific affibody-IRDye800CW conjugate that has undergone Phase 0 evaluation studies in head and neck cancer, among others. TLD1433 is a ruthenium-based photosensitizer in a Phase II trial for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

We seek to advance intraoperative PDT by improving the control of irradiance and fluence with image-based treatment planning for an optical surface applicator (OSA) with a novel photosensitizer (TLD1433) that has shown safety in recent clinical trials. To that end, we tested the accuracy of Monte Carlo-based simulations of light delivery from the OSA in vitro and in vivo. We assess the safety and biodistribution after the instillation of TLD1433 in the peritoneal cavity of mice and rats, and define the relationship between the intratumoral irradiance and fluence, and the volume of tumor ablation in the peritoneal cavity of rats. The Monte Carlo simulations agreed with light dosimetry measurements at a 5-mm prescription depth in vitro. An instillation of TLD1433 in the peritoneal cavity of mice is safe and leads to drug accumulation in the tumor and adjacent organs in the peritoneal cavity of rats. A TLD1433-mediated intraoperative PDT procedure using an instilled dose of 14 mg/kg and 532-nm laser light induces tumor cell degradation in the peritoneal cavity of rats.
